SUPPER CLUB - Wed, April 3rd
Posted: Wed Apr 03, 2019 2:46 am
Good morning!
We were supposed to get rain last night. If we did, it wasn't much but I could smell it in the air when I stepped out on the deck. Love the smell of spring rain!
Yesterday we got nearly everything on our to-do list accomplished. Only one bathroom left to clean today and we'll be ready for anything! We need to leave the house now so as not to mess anything up! lol! I also made oatmeal craisin cookies for the trailer freezer and applesauce for supper tonite. To add a bit of excitement to my day, I found a mouse on the stairs, caught him in a shoebox, and set him on his way outside. An hour later I found another one, not so perky as Mouse #1, but I captured him and put him outside, too. In the afternoon we had a bird flying around in our 15' living room! That was more exciting. He kept perching on the edges of all the souvenier wine glasses I have lined up on the window ledges, but he never knocked one off. The cat, dog, and I were trying to guide the bird low, through the 8' dining room and out the slider. Finally, I gave up and went to make cookies. I think the bird finally escaped because he's gone! What a circus! Of course, Scottie can't do anything without barking about it, and Foxy kept leaping from couch to chair and back. and I was standing on the hearth, waving my broom in the air!
BECCA - so where is the picture of you that Chickie got to see?? I wanna see, too! and don't you have a dr appt tomorrow - hematologist?
CHICKIE - at least you made it to your sewing room! You got to pet and fondle your fabric if not actually sew with it. And I wanna see Becca's party pix, too! How was Audobon last night? and how is Doyal doing with his weight loss?
JANA - hiring windows to be washed is a great idea! We have 3 windows high up in our 15' living room. Bill has to bring in the tall ladder for the insides and get up on the roof to wash the outsides. I hope Ethan's backpack shows up soon. I'm anxious to see your quilt when it's done.
Tonite we are having good friends over for pork roast, mashed potatoes, brussels sprouts gratin, and applesauce. Funny Story:
One couple, Ed & Norrie, were best friends with my first parents-in-law so I've know them since I was 17 and always loved them. But lost track of them after Mike died. I ran into them 20 years later, rekindled our friendship, and then Bill & I saw them a few times a year after that. In the meantime I met Esther at a widow's support group and we became good friends. Eventually we both remarried and we got together often with our new DH's. This went on for years until one day we discovered that Esther had known Ed & Norrie in her young first marriage as well! So we all started getting together after that about three times a year. It's non-stop talking and laughing for at least 3 hours every time. So I'm really looking forward to tonite.
and what are you looking forward to this evening.
