WOW!!!!!!!!!! They really got me!!! And all the sweet things they did for me! Amazing!!!! And they called FH last week to inform him and he showed up as we all ate lunch, which they catered. And they were more than generous with the gift giving - FH was jumping up and down smiling when we unwrapped our dyson vacuum, our silverware, our drink ware, our bakeware, etc. Sometimes I really can't stand my office and all the work I do, but they really went above and beyond and I was shaking the entire time from excitement and surprise!!!!!!

My Boss told me to go take the rest of the day off to be with FH!

So,pictures will come tomorrow! I promise!

Betsy-that's great!!!! I'm coming to work at your job!!!! Can't wait to see pics! Glad you were so surprised...

It's one big happy family when we're not all stressed out! As much as I complain about the work, working with student's and the faculty is the most enjoyable part. The politics, no! - but what job doesn't have it!

I'll have the pict. tomorrow (hopefully).

This is the moment I realized that my Boss wasn't losing his temper over something, but just trying to get me into the Learning Center for the surprise!

Thank you Cindy! And want to learn something funny I just learned about this? One of our groomsmen's girlfriend works for the catering company at Stony Brook who catered my shower and she knew all about it, so when they came over tonight, she asked how it went and I looked at her dumbfounded b/c I had no idea how she knew about it. She even made and decorated my cake!
