Really quick because it’s Friday Family Fun night….
Today was produce co-op and that is always great. I was a grouch – but once the work was over I was ready to play. Heather told me I wasn’t too grouchy….maybe she’s just gracious. :::snort:::
We went to Mr. Gatti’s for lunch/dinner. Mike has had a horrendous week and wanted to do that as a treat. Today was his day off but he worked until 1:00 p.m. At Gatti’s the manager asked what the special occasion was to bring us all together and Mike told her we were “celebrating family”. I loved that. Josiah had to leave before the rest of us for work…but it was fun.
We tried to watch the *Private Army of Sgt O’Farrell* tonight but the DVD is skipping and such. This was our first disillusionment with netflix. They’ll send us another one right away…so next week.
Mike heard the commissary was having a case lot sale. We went but only bought toilet paper and paper towels…they really didn’t have anything else. I did use the chance to buy meat. I find with the produce co-op and the “natural” co-op that I only hit the commissary about once a month now. I did buy some of the no-hormone/anti-biotic hamburger. I was surprised that they had a new brand of sausage that’s also “hormone/antibiotic/nitrite/nitrate free”…they had chicken/apple sausage and hot dogs….not sure if we got any to try. I did buy meat and so we are set for real food again. {G}
Zander had been begging to put a model truck together all week. Mike the younger ones did that while the rest of us got things ready for movies…..in our house that means pulling out a screen, pulling out a player and projector and hooking it all up…we make it difficult on purpose. {bg}
*Road to Rio* is on and I’m going to go join everyone but wanted to check in as SEVERAL of you emailed that Mike is not the only one who wonders what is up if I don’t post in a day…usually I’m simply busy.
Oh yes, Arielle has opted NOT to have a tea party and wants to do Bumper Cars at Mr Gatti’s…in other words a Mr. Gatti’s party…so I booked that and picked up invites for it today as well. Shoot…her birthday is 10 days away…that ALMOST snuck up on me!
