Well, I had my first bridal shower today. We had a shower/eating/meeting. It was AWESOME!! I have the most wonderful friends and co-workers in the world! My bridesmaids Jeanne and Laura busted their butts!! Everyone brought food to work, and it was a feast. I honestly
considered binging and purging, but it was too good, so I just stuffed myself! I ALMOST had another shrimp incident! (For those of you who don't know, I am allergic to seafood, and swell into a monster whenever I eat it! It's not pretty!) There was an amazing pasta salad, and low and behold, it had shrimp and crab (but it turned out to be krab *fish pressed to look like crab* which I didn't have a reaction to!) I saw the shrimp and avoided them. Jeanne yelled at me "spit it out! Spit it out now!" but it was too good! I didn't get any seafood, so the small bite of pasta didn't hurt me. I generally have this happen on any *special* occasion ie. funerals, weddings, reunions. It's just something I do! Let me tell you HOSPICE PEOPLE CAN COOK!! My co-workers got us a camcorder, which is so wonderful, and a gift card. My bridesmaids got me a black teddy (basically a string!) that has black feathers on the boobs. KC ( one of the craziest co-workers I have ever had, but she looks deceptively innocent) got me a 
card and picture of Bill and Hillary Clinton since Robert and I will be sharing their wedding anniversary. I hope we are happier than they are, because I think they secretly despise eachother! Diane B got us a beautiful wedding frame, and Dee P gave us money. We got lots of wonderful cards, which I can't wait to put into my wedding scrapbook. Our hospice pastor Dick said the sweetest blessing and prayer for us. I can honestly say that I am blessed to have a work "family" like hospice. Like any family there are times when we want to kill eachother, but all in all, I wouldn't trade it for the world! I even feel that way after my Christmas time off was denied. Thanks so much for all y'all are doing for us! We are so blessed!
Love,
Shannon and Robert

quit bitching about Christmas....I got your days off....I'm Traci's favorite....KC
DISCLAIMER: KC is being funny. Yes, she did get my time off, but that is because they are afraid she will quit (she's already pulled that once!) and we are in constant competition to be Traci's favorite. Don't tell her, but Traci told me I'm always her favorite, but she lets KC think she is, so she will work harder and kiss her butt! HA!
DISCLAIMER #2: KC and I are always picking on each other, so don't be alarmed!
Who's got the beer? Tequila?
Dear Anonymous,
Traci is bringing all the beer and tequila you can stand. She's really generous like that!! She'll even let you have a bloody mary.
bloody mary? That's V8 juice right?
