Chelsea let me sleep until 6:30 this morning. That was quite useful as it was beginning to get light when we started our walk and was quite light by the time we finished. She was a really active old lady this morning. We went down ALL the cul de sacs - June Grass, Cattail AND Indian Grass, then went down Eastern Avenue to Valley Road and followed the path along Lions Park until we got to the place where we could go through the woods right to our back yard. A nice pleasant walk.
When we got back, Dick was sleeping, so we ate breakfast, cleaned the kitchen and emptied a few little boxes. I had lunch at the Dairy Queen, a cup of chili, and a nice visit with Alice, Betty, Barb, Mary and Dawn. A nice visit and break in the day.
Then I rested a bit until Jim and Michelle came home. We found spots to put the wedding cake. Dick and Brenda got her at about 5:00 so we visited with them and Jim and Michelle for a bit more then out to dinner at the Villager. Brenda and I took a quick swing through Evans. Dick and Dick really wanted to go home so kept calling us AND then there was an announcement that the store was closing in 7 minutes (not 5 or 10 but SEVEN) so we figured we had better leave.
When we got home we called Jim and Michelle over for a little shot of White Chocolate Liquor and coffee. I found out that Michelle has never been to Evans so will take her and Jim some day. That is an experience that everybody should have. I know that when Sarah, George and Betsy's daughter in law, comes to visit she INSISTS on going to Evans, just to buy their candy. ( the old nickel and dime kind that you can't find anywhere)
Tomorrow is the big day. The wedding. Today was Michelle's birthday, tomorrow the wedding and Sunday, Jim's birthday. They sure know how to hold each other to remembering. Jim and Michelle are going to get their flowers early in the morning, so I suggested that we have a nice Bride's Brunch, or as Jim calls it a Groom's Gorge. Hope I remembered that right. He is very alert and notices that EVERYTHING is for the bride.
It is getting close to Halloween. I will tell you my little Halloween poem because I can't think of any clever way to end tonight.
From ghoulies and ghosties
And long leggity beasties
And things that go bump in the night.
Precious Lord , deliver us.
