It was great to see the alumni partying all over town yesterday. I made several events on Friday and Saturday and enjoyed everything. I wanted to go to the Saturday breakfast because of my long association with Bob Lipscomb, age 96, who received the Distinguished Service Award. On Friday night, I went to AMA Dinner. One of the recipients was Dr. Judy Gallagher, who is now Dean of Humanities at Tarrant County College's South campus in Ft. Worth, Texas. Judith spoke about how Dr. Jennie Cooper was her primary mentor and what she had learned from my sister, Jennie.
Jordan and I had our picture made with her so he could take it to his grandmother and tell her about the speech and meeting her. Jordan did me so proud as my escort for the evening. Layne took me to the Diamond Club on Saturday evening. I am so lucky to have this young family here and they both are so good to go with me to grown-up stuffy things. Jordan charmed our table as he got up and got desserts for everyone. It made me proud and he looked so handsome!
I managed to go downtown for Saturday afternoon coffee with Evelyn Boardman and we enjoyed the fun atmosphere at Cup and Cork. The town was alive and kicking! Enjoy every day --that is my theology for living--and kick yourself when you allow the negative to invade your mental space!
