What a nice time we had last night. We went to Steve's company holiday party. It was held at a sports bar at the Spectrum center. The food was great, seating SUCKED. There was no seating! We were able to score seats at the bar for appitizers, but lost them when we found out there was actual dinner to be had. We thought the appitizers WAS dinner. Once we saw the line for the buffet, we just left. It was way too long and since we no longer had seats.........
It was still a good time non the less. Betty was there, she's my horse trainer friend. It was her husband that set Steve and I up on our blind date 15 years ago. We talked "horsie" stuff. On New Year's day, Gail is having a "celebration" of Gil's life. Betty wants to get a small group of riders and pony Gil's horse riderless on the ride. His boots will hang backwards in the stirrups. We will go through his neighborhood. Steve and I think that is a good and touching idea. Gail offered her home for the annual "barn party" too. It will be so weird with out Gil there. I think I'll be wearing waterproof mascara to those two events.
Ugh, is it REALLY time for me to go to work???
