Ireland - Friday

Had dinner last night in the hotel again with the HR Manager and Business Excellence Manager. Toonari Chicken, very good, came with a fried banana, both tasted very good.

For lunch today had meatballs with mushy peas, which are what you think they are. My mom would be so proud of me. As a baby I always spit out the peas. but being in a foreign country, I chose to go ahead and eat them, not bad but will not get again.

Just finished last class on Change Management.

Waiting for limo to take me to Dublin to stay tonight. Interesting thing in Ireland, there are weddings scheduled every day of the week, the limo is at a wedding this PM. Apparently there are very few places to have a wedding so they are scheduled almost every day of the week. Ate lunch with a guy today who was married on 9/11/2001! He said his ceremony was happening at the same time the planes were hitting the twin towers in NY. They found out about it on their way to the reception. His wife is an american and as you can imagine a lot american people were very upset at the reception. But not his mother-in-law, when asked why she was not very upset, she explained she got married on the day President Kennedy was shot!! She was just used to a lot of drama on a wedding day.

Goes to show you that things in real life are stranger than things people make up.

Very tired and cannot wait to get home to see my baby doll!

Did get good news today that my trip to Chicago next week was CANCELLED!!! YEAH! No more trips until the last week of April.

Pray for Amy and extended family, next week could be a long week.

Love, Big Daddy!
