Out for dinner with Matt & G. They got me some great wine as you can see and a gift certificate for Barnes and Noble, my favourite book shop. Matt had a deep-fried snickers bar and ice cream for pudding but I wasn't too envious because I'd had a NY strip steak, cooked medium, blackened and covered in blue cheese crumbles. Yum. After dinner we drank far too much but I did have several marveous belly laughs during the course of the evening. The kind where your belly hurts and you cry.
Next, my mates Lynn, Debbie & Carol did a surprise pedicure for me, having read how upset I was by my feet. Craig held the fort while we tootled off to a pedicure place.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I was going to say "guess which feet are mine?" but then I realised that the feet below the camera would obviously be mine! What a muppet I am sometimes. It's a combination of blondness, age, stress and alcohol abuse I'm afraid . This was a fabulous trip - we did a grown up version of a blood brother swear (we hugged) and promised to do this every year. It was absolutely great to get together and get pampered.
Jack insisted on me painting his nails when I got back to the house. Today I took it off and told him that it wasn't allowed at school (day care). He was a bit upset and I obviously lied but I don't want him getting picked on. And Finally ....
I have to introduce our resident squirrel "Lucky". Craig nicknamed him Lucky because he's lucky Craig can't use his guns in city limits. About 3 months ago I was raking leaves in the garden near the bird feeder and found a squirrel tail. I thought our local red-tailed hawk had got himself a feast and left the tail behind. This weekend we noticed this little guy on our bird feeder. I wonder what happened? Did our cat or dog get him and he got away? Was it the hawk? I'll never know but I hope he sticks around.
