    Update From Souraya and Drake

    Hello there!

    Sorry you haven't hear from us in a while, but we have been very very busy lately. Mom was here for the summer and left mid August. We went to a family reunion in VA Beach in July as well. Ripley, Mom's Bichon, and Drake got along famously!! Drake was a bit depressed and lathargic when Ripkey went home, but he is back to himself again.

    I just finished my first quarter in the Culinary Arts program and got As in all my subjects. The qurater starts back up September 27.

    We have been doing alot of hiking and climbing when the weather permitts. And when it doesn't, lots of shopping I bought a brand new 2005 Nissan Xterra 2 weeks ago and have been loving it! Drake loves it too. I had leather seats put in so that it would be easier to clean and it has been working like a charm.

    Andrew was coming hom for R&R break in October for 2 weeks. He called 2 days ago and told me a slot cleared up for next week and we decided now would be a better time for him to come since I am off school and will have more time to spend with him. I am soooo excited! He gets here on Monday! Haven't been sleeping well lately in anticipation We have plans to do alot around here but on the 13th, we are going to Peurto Rico for a short 5 day vaccation! We will be staying at a 5 star resort and spa and plan on having a blast!! I can hardley wait

    Hope everyone is doing well.

    I'm so glad to hear from you! Congrats on your schooling and your new car. I know you'll have so much fun with Andrew. I can understand you not being able to sleep. Have a great time on your mini vacation. Give Drake a hug from me.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    It's so good to hear from you again Souraya. Congrats on
    your classwork. Straight As, good for you.

    It's great that Andrew is coming home & you two have a
    wonderful vacation. Peurto Rico is a gorgeous place for a nice
    get away for the both of you. Enjoy.

    Hugs to the world traveler Drake.

    Yippee! I'm just thrilled that you stopped by! Klo plays with the toys you got her from last year's gift swap so I think about you everyday! Relieved and happy that Andrew is fine and coming home early! I worry about him too! Great that you were able to spend time with your mom and that the Drakers had a wonderful time! Congrats on your culinary expertise (yum! yum!) and enjoy your special time in SJU! {Hugs} to all!



    I've been Boooo'd!

    From what I remember of some of your recipes, you were already on your way to becoming a great cook. Do you think you will pursue the culinary arts as a career?

    I hope you and Andrew have an amazing vacation. He certainly deserves it and I know that you will be devoting every waking minute to thoroughly enjoying being together.

    Rachel prompted me to find this thread. I'm glad I did, Souraya! I have been wondering about you and whether you were back and settled in.

    Where are you , exactly? And just email or PM me if you need to.

    I am in hopes that Anna (Cookiebaker) is coming in this coming weekend, overnight. If there was anyway for you to come too, it would be wonderful. But I know you are anticipating Andrew, and I don't even know for sure that Anna and her husband are coming, but I'm pretty sure. Just waiting on confirmation from her. I was hoping to invite you, Mary (mruffruff) and Kari(Finn's Mom) and anyone else in our nearby area to come for dinner, and of course, stay the night if necessary. Anna and her husband will be staying with us, if all goes according to plan, so we might have tight quarters, but we could make it work, for sure. All 3 of our children are here for the weekend, which makes me happy, and they can all meet as many Pet Talkers as arrive. Elizabeth has room for 4 in her room! LOL!!! We could pile all the children in there and open up the other rooms for adults if necessary, in addition to our guest room that is reserved for Anna and her hubby.

    So glad you're keeping in touch with us. We have missed you, Souraya!!!

    Keep us posted on if it will happen and don't forget to take photos this time!
