The Soda Stand

There is something very healing about being around family.   Something so calm and peaceful I can’t really put it into words on this page.

We haven’t done much beyond hanging out, eating together and chatting up a storm.  It’s been a beautiful visit.   I’m so glad I pushed this up by a few weeks and came down here for this weekend.

Earlier today, I ventured out on my own and met GeekyTaiTai for a late lunch/early dinner at Five Guys in Smyrna.   It took me about 45 minutes to get there, but I found it really easily.

We spent about an hour and a half, eating, chatting and laughing.  I love that woman.  She is so real and down to earth.  And as a special bonus, she brought me four cans of my coffee!!!  She was going to deliver them while we were at ConFab, but De*ta lost her bag, so she couldn’t do that.  Bummer on them losing her bag!  I couldn’t imagine losing that and having to make do with barely nothing!  Yeeeesh!

After lunch with her, I came back to moms and we haven’t done anything but watch some TV and chat a bit.  Currently, mom is sitting outside with her neighbor.

I sat out there for a few minutes until I started having another hot flash.  OY!  The hot flashes down here are getting on my nerves!!!!

We tried to take Josie outside with us, but she lost her mind when the neighbor came out with her dog, Springer Lou.  She would not calm down, so I ended up putting her back here in the apartment.

I’ve completed all my laundry, to include my new purchases from Ross Dress For Less.  I bought 3 shirts, 2 pairs of pants and a purse for $73.  Pretty good deal, if you ask me.  I think the taxes I paid were a little outrageous, but whatev.  I love my new work clothes and the cute chocolate brown colored t-shirt I got.

I’m sure I’ll post something of substance in a few days.   I feel a blog post stirring around inside my brain, but it’s not really forming up into words yet.

Until next time…
