Been busy the last few days ! Friday I went to a neighborhood breakfast and then took off to go see family. The traffic was absolutely horrendous. Took much longer than the projected 3 hours. Lots of construction and lot of cars. Arrived rather tired. We went out to eat at a really good mexican place but I don't remember the name now. Then a good nights rest in my great grandaughter's bed. She was kind enough to let me stay in it. She is 10.
Saturday we went to her soccer game. She is a small girl and a little timid. The soccer is really helping her get out of her shell. They clobbered the other team (although there is no official score kept) and she made a goal. She was so happy.
In the late afternoon my daughter picked me up and we went to see another grandson and a new great grandbaby that I had not previously met. She is a little doll, not quite one. We visited with them and then went to dinner at Olive Garden. I am eating way too much !
Sunday I went over to Cowboy's daughter's home and had breakfast with them. They have four children, three of them triplets. Had a nice visit. The kids have this WII game where you dance to the screen so is good exercise. Seems like all of these kids stay in way too much and play with electronics rather than being out in the sunshine. Sign of the times, I guess.
I started back about noon. I took an alternate route and it was even worse. It should have taken 2 hours to get back to the home to see Cowboy and it took 4 plus hours ! Great time with all but wasn't happy about the travel time.
By the time I got to the home it was after 4. Had a nice but short visit with Cowboy. We admired the flowers and walked around a little bit.
I didn't even want to get out of bed Monday morning but had laundry and other chores to get done. Did that and caught up on newspapers and mail.
I went to the home yesterday and took some ant killer and 3 more zinnias to fill that bed. We spent the morning finishing out the third box. We left about 1/3 of it in mint and planted violets in the rest. Hope the mint doesn't take over the bed again. It looks real nice. Now we just need some sunshine and a little rain. Gil has promised to do whatever watering is needed.
I had lunch with Cowboy and visited a while. Came back home about 2.
Last night the dulcimer group played a gig at a banquet given by the "Singers Group". It went really well and the meal was excellent. Wow five straight days of too much food !
Today I need to go wash the car and fill it up, drop off a donation at the local pantry. Also plan to exercise.
