Shannon's World

I didn’t spend all of last week stuck in this pose, but I did spend a good part of the week getting ready for President Gorbachev and his entourage’s arrival at my event.  It was an amazing experience to meet and have lunch with this amazing world leader.  He was gracious, down to earth, well spoken and funny! 

I say it over and over again, “I have the best job in the world.”  I also have the best family in the world!  Many thanks to my Mom who came out to watch Libby while I was out of state for the week, to Mike for being so upbeat and positive about everything (including the fact that his mother in law moves in a few times a year), to Miss L who I missed terribly, but was waiting for me with open arms, a big smile and a few new tricks up her sleeve . . .I can’t thank you enough for being such a good girl both when I’m gone and when I’m home, and to my Dad for living the bachelor life every once in a while while my Mom is here.
