Yeah...I had to use that mantra--luckily, not too often. Because we had fun. F.U.N. And her beauty is far more than skin deep. She is genuinely a beautiful person both inside and out.
It was a long day for GGG (God's Guitar Girl), because not only did she have a 75 mile journey, but did so with a puking daughter. Carsickness is not for the faint of heart. Detour to Walmart for new clothes, THEN to Gretchen's.
I won't go on and on here except to say. MIRL was awesome. Some of my friends and my hubby asked me if it was "weird" at all. Nope. I felt like thru email and hearing her voice on the phone, that we were friends already. I cherished our day. From chatting with her adorable children who, as it happens loved Capri Sun that day, ;) to chatting with her about this, that, and the other thing, it was easy and, well...easy is the best description. I didn't feel awkward, and I hope she didn't either. Easy like walking the beach, looking for sand dollars. Easy like sharing a cobbled together junky picnic lunch and diet Cokes...Easy like a glass of wine on the deck whilst the children watched a bit of Noggin.
Thanks for visiting my part of the world, GGG. I had so much fun and can't wait to do it again.

What a wonderful time! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Well, can I just say I'm jealous? But I totally empathize with the puking child.
Glad you had a good day!
So glad you enjoyed meeting a new friend.
What a fun day! Thanks for sharing the pic of you too - what a gorgeous view you have at your home - love the trees and water.
We also understand the puking - happened on our spring break trip. Praying it does not happen on our road trip in a few days.
"Easy like Sunday morning!!"
We had such a good time. It was sad to see it end. I know we'll be back in the area from time to time. Maybe I can stop by Wal-Mart to pick up stuff for you on my way over, since I'm well-acquainted with its location now! LOL!! Smooches, sister!!
Thanks Gretchen! Yes, I will keep updated on you! I like blogspot a lot... :)
Awww, sounds like y'all had a FAB time together. And for the record, you're both beautiful gals!
Sounds like such fun, minus the puking child part.
How fun!
I am so glad you got to meet.....
If I'm ever in the northwest.......
Hugs,

Well I love me some God's Guitar Girl, too. But she will have to move on over when I visit those parts. Hmmmph!
Kidding. That's awesome. Who knows when I'll get there. When I'm 69 on my RV tour maybe? LOL. Lov ya.
yes, she's all that and a bag o'chips! i sure wish i were there- but i'm glad to know you guys had a good time :)
JEALOUS!!!!! Glad you girls had such a great time, though!! (I met an on-line friend and her family in Hawaii and it was just like we'd forever been real life friends.)
