Hello all, I'm back from my initiation!! Thanks for all your well wishes...it was wonderful, beautiful, amazing, and something I'll remember for the rest of my life! The Tri Delta Ritual is so beautiful!
I was sooooo unbelievably nervous! I was more nervous than I ever expected to be. That kind of surprised me. But the women were so gracious and wonderful and friendly...just like I remember the Tri Deltas I met back in the day. They are simply the most wonderful women and I'm so glad to be their sister. I'm really looking forward to working with them.
My excitement and enthusiasm was dampened somewhat on the way back home. I got FOOD poisoning on the way back home, and it was horrible!! I have not been that sick in years. Remember...I was initiated at a Colorado chapter and drove there from Minnesota. I rented a car (because I love to drive, under normal circumstances) but this time it was almost like a nightmare. I had to keep stopping every couple hours or more to rest or be sick, and it felt like I'd never get home!
I'm feeling a little bit stronger today (almost three days later!) and am once again basking in the joy that an almost 15-year journey has turned a corner and I'll be able to contribute as an alum to the most fabulous group of women I've ever known!! Illness or anything else CANNOT take that away from me, ever!!
