Today is my husband's 50th birthday........Feb 22......222.........it's also George Washiington's birthday...happy birthday Mr. President. There was supposed to be a big party...celebration for this day but as things are turning out.......I took my husband for brunch yesterday afternoon instead. He thought it was a surprize and was looking for all our friends......he started to cry and asked me why I could not wait for him to grow up?? I just let him talk......I'm getting over being sick and just did not have the fight in me. I ordered mussels for starter and eggs florentine and a mimosa. He got the crab cake and steak and eggs and a bloody mary......love those celery sticks!

I heard my husband order his steak well done and remembered that Julia Child said if you have to order your steak well done........order a hamburger!!! But my lips were zipped.....I took a sip and looked at the city across the river....we were facing the United Nation building....must look real pretty at night.

I had a very nice time....he can be very funny when he wants to......I just let him talk.....it was his day....so on and on he went about the big Canada job he is hoping for. I really believe it will all work out.....to tell you the truth, the Lord has a soft spot for this guy......so I don;t doubt that things will be good.

When the bill came.....almost $85.00 for brunch???......He gave me $100 he said he just won on a Lotto scratch off.......I looked at him and said oh....you'll never stop talking about this will you??? He laughed because he knows it is the truth......I let him pay:)

When we got home...he laid on the couch and was snoring in 2 minutes...could not believe it...50 year old man or just a boy? Maybe it was the mimosa but I sure was confused....So I went downstairs and spent the afternoon with my mom and dog Penny .....listened to my moms' ideas and plans and complaints and we watched Matlock and my favorite Monk

Enjoy life's celebrations........even if you are afraid......because God has a good plan for you and me.

Valentine's Day 2010

I just got back from 5 day trip to Disney in Orlando with my daughter, her husband and my two grandchildren - what a time we had. The weather could have been better...but it still was magical. My daughter was invited to a bloggers convention through Hanes and we were given the VIP treatment. No lines to wait on...we stayed for a second ride...the kids had a great time and so did I.!!! We had lunch with the Princess' at Norway.....they were all so pretty...Mary Poppins was there .....practically perfect in every way!....We stayed at the Polynesian Resort and had breakfast with Lilo and Stitch...Mickey and Goofy showed up too.

Snow or no snow....it was good be get back home. and today is Valentine's Day. My husband left the house around 4 AM and I have no idea where he is or when he is coming back......I hope he stays whereever he is.....this divorce is really taking a long time to clear......I'm hoping he was looking for a place to stay while I was away. He told me last night that he was going to work in Canada.(if only).....there is a big steam job opening up and they are calling all steamfitters from the country.......one problem.....you have to sign a waiver that there will be no drinking or trouble making.....someone is going to be stranded in Canada........not looking forward to this....hopefully something else will come up for him work wise. I really don't think Canada is ready for him.

I am meeting my cousin for brunch today.......it's a nice clear day...cold yes....snow no:) Looking forward to that and really happy that tomorrow is a holiday....I need that one more day to get back to reality......
