Goodbye UK, Hello USA!
Hello All!
I am sorry for being complete crap about writing posts lately. I am leaving London to go back stateside for a month or so and I have been busy sorting myself out. I cannot wait to get home and see my family especially for the 4th of July activities!! Every year since I was wee little girl my family and I go to our lake house in Connecticut for 4th of July. I have not done that in 4-5 years now - since all my time was then spent traveling to the UK to be with Neal.
BBQ’s……oh how I love BBQ’s! There is nothing better then grilling some burgers, hot dogs, steak, chicken……don’t you think? Then at the end of the night we break out the marshmallows and make smores while the BBQ is still hot.
Our friends The Blacks from Boston always come down. They are my parents friends who they have known for 30 some odd years and their 3 children that I pretty much grew up with - well mostly spending summers with (who are all around my age might I add, I don’t want them to have a go at me for calling them children!) Sadly I just received the news that none of ‘children’ will be coming this year and it is the ‘adults’ and I and hopefully my twin brother…bummer. That is the sad thing, once we all went off to college, then graduated, then got real jobs we don’t see each other that often. Hopefully next year! Anyway, I have great memories of playing games (they know how much I love my old school Barbie: Queen of the Prom Board Game with Poindexter, and if you have no idea what I am talking about I suggest you ladies look it up!) going boating, watching fireworks on the boat in the middle of the lake with about one hundred other boats, tubing, water skiing, playing hide and seek in the dark and getting spider bites on my knees, trivial pursuit, great food…oh the list could go on and on!
But as you can tell, I am very excited to head back. I have had such a great time here in London being with Neal and it is unfortunate that he cannot come back with me this time, but in about 7-9 months he will be stateside with me and we will be married! He has no idea what he is missing when I go home, but I tease him all the time about it. He has so much to look forward to and I can’t wait to take him home with me permanently.
Ciao London, see you in August!

Your site http://reggae-artists.com is fantastic. It is so peaceful looking and that mock south park rasta character is so ridiculous it is hilarious!!
