Good morning!
I survived the party!!! It really was fun. Jimmy didn't have a clue until he walked in and everyone yelled SURPRISE! He was shocked to see his sister from Texas here and seeing everyone brought him to tears. He's just a big softy at heart!
Missy had kept telling me that Jimmy's sisters would be here early and that I should put the to work decorating or fixing trays. Well, thank goodness I didn't wait for them. They showed up about an hour before people would be arriving. Luckily Laurie & family arrived to help blow up balloons and to do some of the decorating. Even got the 13 year old grandson to make a couple of batches of pigs in a blanket. He loves to cook.
I just planted my bottom on my chair and went on to be treated like a guest. It worked great!!
Now today Missy will be over to help clean up all the decorations and to take home all the veggies and fruit that didn't get used. They'll have enough to last them all week, if not longer. I intend to just relax today.
Dave - Sorry that wind bent that part on you and that Kathi couldn't get a new part yet. That must have been some really strong winds in your area. We must have had some strong winds here too during the night. The decorations on the lanai got all messed up.
Lee - Talk about "shrinkage", there's a parent here in Flori-dah who got a school principal fired because she showed her 6th grade class a picture of Michelangelo's statue of David. The parent claimed the statue was pornographic! Can you believe that?
I think all building materials costs are sky high now. I remember buying that plastic trim for about $3 for an 8 foot length. I can't imagine what it is today.
Kathie - That's great that Art can still walk around at that model car show. Do you think he'll come home with an new kits? Thanks for saying a prayer for this bunch of heathens. We sure need it!
Nancy - Enjoy your lunch and race today.
Bert's already out on the lanai cleaning up. I guess I should go and help him. Have a super Sunday everyone!
