Comments on: Happy 40th Anniversary, Mom & Dad! http://proactivebusybody.com/2006/06/18/happy-40th-anniversary-mom-dad/ Life is in flux BIG TIME these days. I want to keep in touch with all of my peeps. The Internet is this beautiful thing. I can move to a brand new city and still stay in easy, near-daily contact with the people I love. When I feel connected to the people in my life that matter, I am unstoppable!

Instead of having a big party or taking a luxury vacation, as some people do, they decided to follow the path of their honeymoon, which essentially meant following the path of Katrina.

Many congratulations. If I'd been alert, perhaps we (and John Simmons) could have rented the condo on Goodlett and restaged your wedding reception. Now that would really have been retro!

We're not home yet. We decided to detour past Jackson, MS where we built a Habitat house for Katrina refugees earlier this year. We wanted to see the house, and it looks fabulous. Oprah had all the lawns landscaped, and the city refinished the street. The Boones talked us into spending the night, so we're here now. We talked about our 40 years together while on this trip and both decided we'd made the right choice in a partner and that we'd do it all over again. Part of it has been our wonderful friends - like family to us. Love to all of you. Sharon Thanks everyone, and especially you, Abby, for alerting all our friends so that they could send us messages.
