Good Morning Ladies.
Well this weekend was a big success.
I didn't post about it on here in case MJ looked and saw it.
For the last month I have been working to give him a big surprise birthday party.
I got his brother from Houston, who we haven't seen in over 2 years to come. I told MJ, Herman, our neighbor, needed him out front. It wasn't Herman it was his brother. It took him a minute to realize what was happening. I made a big breakfast and introduced them to chaffles, which were a big hit. MJ has said over and over he can't believe i pulled it off. His friend Alan from work who is almost family came too and brought MJ a gorgeous chess set.
His brother from San Angelo did not but his wife and son did. They had just got back from a camping trip and he had heat sickness.
There was food and fun and remembering old times. We remembered his dad, who had the same birthday and would have been 91.
Susie, the Houston sil, brought sugar free cupcakes an we have carb smart ice cream, David, from Houston, said this is the whites ice cream I have ever seen. It has few ingredients and it is a startling white.
I am so glad it came together for my Beloved.
Today is back to real life again.
My list is simple, because for weeks I have been decluttering and cleaning, as energy and pain level would allow me.
I need to empty the dishwasher
Fold a load and reboot laundry
Find a place for all the left over chips. I think 2 people brought bags of ships, so we have now about 6 bags not opened yet and 4 that were opened but are still more than 1/2 full. They need a home besides on top of my stove and counter. No one wanted to take any food home. Though I did manage to sent a container of potato salad and fruit home with Drew and Jenn.
Not sure on dinner it might just be hot dogs and chips.
Have a blessed day ladies.
