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.
