I had a great weekend! On Friday I took off for Stephenville and had an interesting time on the bus. I finally got a seat to myself in Springdale and was settling down for a nap when an older man got on in Grand Falls, sat with me, and proceeded to talk non-stop for the last four hours of my trip! He was very sweet and kept me company in Deer Lake when we had a half hour supper break. He told me that he will never forget me and he wanted me to go on with him to Port aux Basques to get the ferry so he would have some company! haha! I told him that I couldn't because if the bus stopped in Stephenville and I didn't get off, Debbie would start to worry!! Poor thing...he still had such a long way to go.

I won't go into great detail about all the things I did while in Stephenville as Debbie already wrote about it. I did have an excellent time shopping in Corner Brook. I absolutely love shopping there. They have the best Reitman's ever! I got a really nice sweater that I can't wait to wear. I also got a few gifts for people, so I didn't only spend money on myself! My god, the scenery over there is gorgeous. The trees are all pink or orange or red or yellow. I got some pictures. I hope they come out ok.

Sunday dinner was wonderful. I love Debbie's coworkers. It's so nice to know that there are people in the world who don't know you from anywhere and yet they invite you into their home, feed you, make you feel welcome, and then hug you before you leave telling you to come back and visit. Edwina and Billy were such gracious hosts. Such lovely people. I would definitely love to see them again. And I really like Michelle! What a cute, funny little woman she is. She is hilarious! I hung out with her a couple of times and she is awesome! :)

Monday was the saddest day I've had in a little while. I cried while I was getting ready to go to the bus. I cried when I got on the bus and didn't stop until I got to Corner Brook. Then I napped off and on for about four or five hours. I honestly didn't want to come back here. I just wanted to stay where I was.

Today I feel a little sad, as I always do when I have to leave Debbie. I have such fun with her and when I have to come back to 'real life' I really feel it. Thankfully within a few days things will settle back into the same ole same ole, and I'll still miss her but at least my heart won't hurt as badly.

Anyhoo, I'll end here. I hope everybody's weekend was as lovely as mine. Talk soon. Ta ta for now.
