4 Months and Counting

Today I started to get a bit antsy about all the non-solidified plans relating to the next reunion.  Even though I know in my heart it will all come together, and it's not at all up to me, my codependent nature has a tough time fending off the feelings of angst that just seem to wash over me with 4 months to go!

One issue... we're still looking at places to hold the Friday night gathering.  In downtown Medford there's a place called "Howies".  They are renovating a room that used to be part of the VFW hall... or maybe it was the whole hall... I'm not sure, but anyway, they are in the process of fixing it up to rent out.  The problem is that 'Howie' is reluctant to say "It will be ready on the 6th..." and keep the costs low.  Linda and Shannan will be meeting with him this week and want something solid from him by Sunday.  As Linda pointed out, we'll be bringing a lot of thirsty people to their place, so he'd better consider it in whatever he offers.

Other options are available too.  Cybercenter is one of those options.  We'll meet there on Sunday to check it out and hash out the current issues. I'll all fall into place eventually, and of that I'm sure.  Just not really 'easy' with real life stuff for all of us and dealing with the 'Howie's of the world!

It's been decided that we are going to go 'paperless' this year - no mailed invitations.  I'd love to tell you it's all about 'going green', but actually the decision was made to post on Facebook, Classmates and the 549C site, for convenience more than anything else.  Currently working on a donation link for PayPal and also an Evite invitation to allow you to pay for your jetboat tickets.

Posted a music player on the blog today with some tunes from 1985.  Hope you enjoy it!  (Note you can turn on 'shuffle' in the upper right hand corner of the player.)

 I'll post more on the Sunday Reunion Committee meeting next week.
