Dr. Matt and Megan's Visit

I have not been able to get on to the blog since Meg left but she called today and got me on the track again. We had a great short visit with them and enjoyed every minute of it. We had a set it & forget it chicken dinner and a few games of "99" it took 12 games before they beat us---like I say you have to have the CARDS,It's all luck!!!!! Saterday Tom and family came and brought pizza's for lunch so we had that and some fun with domino's. I forgot to say that Meg & Matt slept on the air mattress hide a bed in the guest room and for some reason it deflated while using it.What a Man!!!! We will be getting a new bladder for it and hope our next guest will keep this in mind!!! We had a nice dinner here Tuesday with Pat,Bill, Dennis, and Fran. We had a Chinese menu,Wonton soup, egg rolls, and stie fry chicken and vegtables. It was a success and the fortune cookies with sherbert gave us a few laughs. The next day I went to a salad lunchen at our church with Sue ans Jen and it was fun to get out if only for a hour or so.

FUN FUN FUN

After our chores Sat. we decided to get a video so I drove into town and got a video at "movie madness". Got home and put it in and we waited ---and waited -- and nothing happened. Got up and discovered it would not play. The door to the CD player would not open and the on off button didn't work either. It ate the CD!!! Chuck said lets take off the cover and take out the CD soooooo 20 screws and two hrs later the lid was off. We plugged in the thing and it started to run soooooo we put the thing together (2 hrs more and 20 screws later) we sat down to watch the movie. Do not get this film it was the PITS!!! (Lions for LAMBS) The day was not done with me yet because when I was brushing my teeth before bed I dropped my one tooth partial down the drain. I shut the water off right away as to save my tooth. Now I figure it is in the trap right??? What do I know about plumbing--well I tried and got everything loose but couldn't take the trap off. Needless to say I went to bed toothless!!! Called my daughter in the morning and told her of my dilemma and her and her husband Fred came over ans saved my tooth. I served them breakfast(the least I could do) for there help. I'm smiling now with my tooth and the smell of sewer gas lingering in my bathroom.

Just another day in our life

at our age we are lucky to wake up!!!! We went shopping in Lowell today and I did'nt think I would be glad to be grocery shopping. Chuck is driving the riding cart all over the store and I can always find him as some of the displays are knocked over and the people are cleaning up. Just another day in our life. We are having a big chinese dinner here soon so I am making Won Ton soup and egg rolls. I am having a hard time getting all the stuff as I live in DEMOTTE!!!!! People here are not as smart as in Fla. as they haven't got a clue as to what I want. We had 60 degrees today and I'm starting to think that is nice out..

Brooke and Jay Visit De Motte

Brooke and Jay visited DeMotte today and we celebrated with margaritas and stroganoff.

We had a great visit with Jay & Brooke. I got to have a margarita with her and I forgot how goooood they are!!!! Jay washed my patio glass windows for me inside and out, which was so nice of him. He asked me what he could do and so I told him, bet he won't ask me that again ha ha. We played "99" (a game) and we let Jay & Brooke win as they were our guest and it was the right thing to do. They felt right at home as we have a lake right behind us and maybe next time they come they can water ski. Snow is all gone now so we are looking forward to summer and fishing and swimming.

Welcome to De Motte Indiana

I will be talking to you soon. Keep watching for some good stories as I have plenty.
