FINALLY ! TOGETHER AGAIN !!!!!!!!

**Ya’s … You ARE the the Flip to My Flop!!!**

Dear Reader!

I have been here almost 24 hours… the rest of the girls are on their way as I write this post. As the song says… 🎼🎹… ANTICIPATION …!!!

The Magic of Dawhoo, Edisto, and Rest in Peace has already cast its spell on me! Brooke told me there were some new house rules this year… every two hours some energy inducing ( very diversified) ” magic potion” is being brought to me in a tiny bowl and I am to open up and get it down. Surprisingly I have been three fourths successful in this endeavor… just having someone to talk to makes all the difference in the world… a much needed distraction. (And feeling so secure -not having to make all my decisions and wait on the next pill while fighting nausea. Can already feel the difference! No nausea today! Now more laughter is about to arrive and more distractions.)

Brooke told me the Ya’s have all kinds of surprises for me. Fun! They will be revealed throughout the retreat!!!

Mother Nature is also bringing out a huge surprise Saturday night for all to awe at….

Clemson might have a ” bye” this Saturday but Orange will dominate the Solar Eclipse-Ring Around the Fire! Something everyone can get fired up about and the Ya’s get to share it together.

So tomorrow… libby saw this and brought it with her!

Today IS my favorite day!

About Becky Dingle

I was born a Tarheel but ended up a Sandlapper. My grandparents were cotton farmers in Laurens, South Carolina and it was in my grandmother’s house that my love of storytelling began beside an old Franklin stove. When I graduated from Laurens High School, I attended Erskine College (Due West of what?) and would later get my Masters Degree in Education/Social Studies from Charleston Southern. I am presently an adjunct professor/clinical supervisor at CSU and have also taught at the College of Charleston. For 28 years I taught Social Studies through storytelling. My philosophy matched Rudyard Kipling’s quote: “If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.” Today I still spread this message through workshops and presentations throughout the state. The secret of success in teaching social studies is always in the story. I want to keep learning and being surprised by life…it is the greatest teacher. Like Kermit said, “When you’re green you grow, when you’re ripe you rot.”
