Got it today! Silver, you're mentioned your alum chapter's writeup. Maybe that's why you always get your LI last, because you keep getting your name in there  There's also a familiar face in there as well for LI attendees, check out pages 7 and 45. Hi B!!!
My favorite part is the Sisterhood Encounters article. I got all teary eyed reading one of them and realized just how much I miss my sisters from my hometown. Just when I was all good and mushy, I got to the one with the "Let's become little old ladies together..." and got a case of the giggles that still hasn't stopped 
Then again, it should be no surprise to anyone who saw me at LI that I'm still eying the sunburst rose pendant. It's simply stunning (and the watch isn't bad, either!)

HAHA...but au' contraire, AOIIAlum, Beryana is in just about EVERY issue, and she gets hers FIRST! I am so serious , I think it is a plot...and evil diabolical plot to keep me from buying Emporium objects!

Stunning, but, GeeWhiz! Isn't it over $800, and it is not a "donation" item! It simply costs that much? I wonder how many they have sold already?
I finally just went to IHQ and got a copy!
<Silver sticks her tongue out at Beryana, makes a smarty-pants face, and yells NaNaNaNa...LOL>
AND, to beat the diabolical plot, I bought something at Emporium, too!
To Dragma is really nice this time....LOTS of GC names in the Foundation giving pages! WooHoo for generous GCers!
Speaking of which....I think that we should crown a GC QUEEN OF TO DRAGMA for each issue.
For this issues's GC QUEEN OF TO DRAGMA, I nominate AOIIGal!
Roses and warm pumpkin pie,
Silver

Sarah, you're so right, I did miss page 9! I see lots of gorgeous Canadian AOIIs!
I don't know how many they've sold, and it's dreadfully expensive, and in all honesty just a pipe dream. Still, it's my "I want it NOW" (tm Veruca Salt) item.
I second the nomination. All those in favor?
Roses!
So, Silver, what'd ya buy?

I just can't figure WHY they are so expensive...They are not much larger than an LI necklace, and there are not THAT many rubies and diamonds....and it is not a "fundraiser/donation item."
Just perplexing...stunning..but perplexing...
Okay, so here is the deal... AOIIAlum, when I get my KITTY, we will drive it over to the Emporium and BUY YOU one of those little baubles! Deal? Pinky promise?
Roses and warm pumpkin pie and Cool Whip (and JUST FOR AOIIAlum, SWEET TEA),
Silver

Silver grins sheepishly because Mr. Silver does not yet know....
One of these in yellow gold was on 1/2 price in the back discount cubby. For $70, I snatched it up!

Yeah, we all know that 'dancing alumnae' meant Sarah. It certainly didn't mean either Silver or myself, or anyone else

Lucky duck! Watch your mailbox then, and call me one evening when you're home before you hit TN again.
Roses!
Thank you for the pumpkin pie with cool whip and SWEET TEA! Sigh.

I just got my To Dragma, and I just want to send many thanks to AOIIsilver for my name being mentioned in the Nashville Area Alumnae news. I've already told her that I am hoping to impress my husband with it. 
And by the way, you guys are YOUNG. The last time I was in To Dragma was many eons ago (about 20 years)  when my collegiate chapter helped out at an alumnae celebrity golf tournament. Several of us got our picture taken with Spanky from the Little Rascals, and the picture made To Dragma. Now I know what you are thinking and the answer is, NO, he was not a child at the time. I am not quite that old yet. What was so funny was that even as an older man, he still looked exactly like the little kid from the TV series.
It really looks like Leadership Institute was fun, and it is great to see all of those smiling gorgeous faces of people having a wonderful time.
And you all are right about that sunburst pendant. If they lowered the price on that baby by about $700, I would definitely be signing up for it.

Aww, you're not old! I just celebrated the 21st anniversary of my pledging date in September, and will be celebrating the 21st anniversary of my initiation in January. Four more years to that 25 year pin, and you'd better believe I'm counting down! Whoo hooo!
Roses,
Christin
