I rode with Jay to Howard’s for book club. Russell was the only other attendee. We decided on the agenda for the next year. The hosting and refreshments still need to be worked out. We watched the DVD of Chuck & Buck, stopping for an intermission of brownies and an apple crisp and ice cream. … Read more

I met Mike W. for lunch today and found him 92 pounds lighter. He’s starting to look sexy again, like he used to. We were going to eat at Manchester’s, but found it closed when we arrived, so we ate at the Arby’s next to it. Robert came over early for dancing, and we went … Read more

I worked until about 6:30, and got home around 7:00. Steve called at 7:30 telling me he was on his way. I took him to the airport for his 9:30 flight to Houston via Atlanta on Delta. After dropping him off, I stopped at Wal-Mart and bought 3 “easy” crossword puzzle books, and then at … Read more

I met with Nathan today, and everything’s in a good place. I re-did the relationships on my beneficiaries as we had discussed earlier, and paid him for another annual assessment. We talked about my urge to buy a Mercedes, and he suggested that I call him before I make an actual purchase. 🙂

I rode my bike for 14 miles today. I rode up Kaplan, left on Athens Drive, right on Avent Ferry, up to Tryon, right on Tryon, all the way out to Kildaire Farms road. I had no idea that that’s where Tryon went. I also passed the water park that I’ve always seen the sign … Read more

We got an early start today. Mom and dad were supposed to stop by our room at 7:15, and at 6:50, knocked on the door. I was still packing. They said they’d meet us down in the lobby. When we got down there, Aunt Rita was with them, and came walking over, camera in hand. … Read more

We met in the lobby at 11, and everyone was pretty much on time. The Lachapelles had not followed instructions, as when I saw Uncle Roland he said, “We had a delicious breakfast this morning at Perkins.” Grrrrrrrr. I said, “Good, I’m glad you enjoyed it. I hope you’ll come with us to lunch and … Read more

We had a leisurely morning, with breakfast in the hotel lobby. Me, mom, dad, and Vivian decided on the buffet. Aunt Viv and Nib had already eaten, and the others weren’t around. After we were seated, Aunt Laura, and then eventually, Uncle Dennis and Aunt Terri ended up joining us. When breakfast was finished, we … Read more

After many long months of planning, the day has arrived. We were up by 6:30, and expecting Vivian to arrive by 7. At about 7, she called to say she was getting off US 1 onto the beltline and would arrive shortly. We left for the airport at around 7:30, dropped mom and dad off … Read more

I worked from home today, with a thousand things to do before being on vacation tomorrow through Friday. Mom and dad were supposed to arrive at 3:00, but showed up shortly after 1:00. This really put a cramp in my work day. I was, however, glad to see that they’d made it safely. I finished … Read more
