What a Few Minutes!

I began date night with my usual delicious martini when our son texted. He told us he arrived safely in Washington D.C., stopped in Maryland and Delaware to collect sand from their beaches ( he has been collecting sand from all over the world to display in little glass jars), and then texted that his girlfriend was expecting two packages today. I took a slug of my delicious martini, hopped into the car, had hubs put the convertible top down, and went to our son’s house. Hubs found the packages sitting in front of the garage doors and brought them into the kitchen. Back home to text our son, have a little sip of my delicious martini, and found this photo he sent. Little Nali, whom he kittysat for a few months ago, remembered him and instantly gave him a kiss. Now I’m home and enjoying date night leisurely. Hubs picked up chicken and sides so I don’t have to cook. Do you love Fridays as much as I do?

I'm glad everything is going well for you and your family... I just got done with a doctor's appointment, got my allergy shot, they vampired me and now I have to go to the hospital. The doctor wants me to have chest x-rays. I've been hurting and she wants to see what shows up. Wish me luck.

She’s the kitty who was stabbed in the face by a lunatic. A sweet little girl. Chicken, too? Great minds think alike! Enjoy. Did you get your tattoo?

Ever since I became a widow and I retired, the name of the days don´t have much meaning. I love the days when I am visited or I visit and the others are just "days". Sometimes, with this pandemia, I find out that I have "lost" a day

I hear you about setting the mood for the weekend. I may be retired, but still love every weekend. He’s in love with little Nali. Her previous owner cut off her tail and slashed her right jaw off. She’s a little lover despite her tragic beginnings. Yes, that’s his new thing to do.

Grub Hub is a rip-off! I refuse to order anything from them. We have a few good restaurants that deliver. We give the driver a tip.

@DianneN We were outside home all the day. I was stressed because of my ophthalmologist visit, but it went well. Cats who live in apartments tend to put on some weight.

Glad your day got better. So sorry it was stressful Nali did put on some weight our son mentioned. But all she wanted to do was play the stick under tissue paper game with him. He will have her thin through exercise by the time he leaves.
