Visiting in "Real" Life with Bloggy Friends!

Awhile back...I got to meet and go to lunch with... 


  


We were both a little nervous...I know for sure, I was. Will it be awkward, will we have enough to talk about, will I talk too much, and will she like me in "REAL" life.  Well, I shouldn't have worried about all that, except for the talking too much thing, sorry Pat! I realized when I got home I talked too much, along with food in my mouth, no less! I was just so excited to meet you in person!  We barely got our food ordered or ate, we were so busy catching up!  She brought me the sweetest gift, a junk tassel she made, wrapped perfectly in a doily with red trim! 




All I brought her were some magazines, I had been going through, though it would be a gift I would appreciate, so I took a chance that she would too! We talked about you gals, also, we have many of the same "bloggy" friends, sure wish you could have been there!  I've met a few others from "bloggy" land, but mostly  through shopping...this was the first time I had the opportunity to meet just because...It was great and we feel like old friends now!  


 I hung the tassel on this lamp, when I got home, 
to keep it safe...
because we were right in the middle of the remodel
...and I like it there! 
funny how things like that come together...


Isn't it great when you get to see your friends in person?!!!
I have a friend, Shabby Vintage Junk...she just asked, hoping. I'd be at Round Top...She is coming from Australia! Boy, sure want too...but, don't think so, this time, but we will see! 
( We've invited a Japanese F.Exchange  Student to spend Spring Break with us,
so it might would be rude to go out of town, I think!)

All this talk about New Year decluttering and cleaning and such...I'll just leave you with this quote...

....hahahahahaha....Lezlee I LOVE that quote....SO MUCH so that I think I may have to make a sign of it & place it up on the bulkhead in our livingroom where the seesaw currently hangs.... :o) !!

It IS a WONDERFUL thing this meeting of Blog Friends....You already have SO MUCH in common....I'm yet to meet a BF that I haven't CLICKED with & I'm SURE it would be the same with you Lovey....!!!!!

You know....I reckon a trip to Round Top would be the PERFECT introduction to the 'real' America for your Japanese exchange student....FOR REAL....!!

Cheers for now....Your Aussie MATE,

Lezlee, you sound like you had a great time with your blogging friend.
That is so nice. I have meet a few in person also and enjoyed them so much. We will have to get together when I visit my daughter. The ice storm seem to change all of my plans my last visit. I did get a lot of needed rest though. Hugs, sandi

Oh my gosh, that quote describes my life to a "T". lol

Love the tassel Corn made. The place you put it on the lamp is perfect.

Lezlee!

Thanks for all those 'good' words you had to say... I had such a great time with you that day, and lunch was great too.
It's probably a good thing our schedules are full or we'd still be sittin' there, chattin' it up.

Love that little quote-- and isn't it so true?

Blessings
Pat

It is very funny how things just come together like that. And meeting people for the first time how exciting. I have yet to meet someone I blog with, but I very much look forward to it one day.

-Much love, Kim and Mr. Gnome
