Update - Ladies Night

The first ladies night was really nice... It was only four of us but that was fine. We met up at LEGS's house for dinner and conversation. She made an awesome spread--salad with salmon, buffalo chicken wings with veggies and dip, blackened rice, baked Cornish hens, and a rum cake for dessert. Dinner with really nice. When we go there dinner was not ready, so we began to sample wine... 2 bottles later dinner was ready. That lead to a third bottle of wine... During dinner we chatted about random things. We touched a little on men (of course)...2 of 4 are in a relationship. It was really nice to feel the support of females who are doing it... We all are well educated...2 of us have masters degrees...And everyone has really good careers ... Most of us own our own homes... We would be considered young professionals.

It is hard to imaging my life without that female support systems to fall back on when you are having a hard time or when you are succeeding. That bond is something that helps us to stay grounded and hold on to our strengths.

Anyway, we ended dinner and moved on to dessert...Rum cake and champagne with strawberries. We watch a couple of movies and when it was all said and done.. It was 3 am and time to get home. I should have just stayed where I was and be done with it. But I made it home in one piece (thank the lord). Did not get to sleep until sometime after 4 but I sleep like a baby.. Until my eyes opened sometime mid Saturday afternoon...

Can't wait for next month get-together.
