Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. -Marcel Proust

Went to visit Lex while Mark was with the dogs. And she not only tried ON wigs, she bought one. Proving that she indeed is a rock star.
Ready for her White Snake video.
The winner! Supermodel status. Us with regular god given hairs. .
What we did today. For 8 1/2 hours. Averaging 0.3 miles hour.
An ill-fated trip south on the M11 early this morning to go pick up Mark's wedding suit in London. We went approx 1/2 a mile an hour. Seriously. My purse is totally organized. Suit retrieval abandoned. Afternoon training and coaching sessions cancelled. Bladder very tested. And came Very Close to joining the throngs of other male (including Mark) and brave female motorists who climbed the fence to take care of business behind the bushes. We went 37 miles. In 8 hours. I may never get in a car again. Too bad we rescheduled to be there tomorrow morning at 9:30.
