Chicago, Chicago...

What an amazing weekend! Check out Katy's blog for her side of the story. Which, actually, coincides with what I remember.
Meeting with the "sisters" for a fabulous downtown Chicago gathering was the best thing that we'd done in a long time. So many fun conversations. And you'd be amazed at how little was said about husband's and children!
Katy's show, Bathroom Talk, was a hit. VERY late at night, but our afternoon nap and a very funny show kept us awake and laughing. It's amazing what she does!
Shopping, eating (we ate surprising healthily, dessert only once!), more shopping...and LOTS of laughter all along the way. The Menopause show was hilarious, great characters, great music, and written just for us. And we all went down to the stage at the end and danced arm in arm! Can you imagine? And with no wine beforehand. We're crazy, bold gals. Katy, Jessie and Angie stayed in their seats, realizing it was "our moment".
Katy took us to all the right places and, I'm certain, truly enjoyed herself. So what if she's 25+ years younger than all of us! She fit right in and we loved having her there to share the weekend.
Another trip? You bet. And here's hoping that Pat and Nancy can join us on the next one. How about June, at our lakehouse? Does that sound like a possibility??? I don't want to wait a whole year!
I love my sisters more than they can imagine...and delight in their presence and their personalities. Thanks, Mother and Dad, for bringing us into your family. We're forever grateful.
