OMG, DH has "ladies of a certain age" bringing him cake or other baked goods all the time at work! I thought it was sweet (no pun intended), but now I see it differently! He actually is struggling with people doing that even though he is working part time, while he is trying to lose weight. He'll text me Bev just brought me Snicker doodle bars, what should I do? He groomed them too well!!!
Happy Saturday! We had a great time visiting our friends' home last night. When we were youngsters in college, I worked at a library with the two friends. So I was friends with them first, but pretty quickly, they started dating at almost the same time DH and I met, and we all hung out together. We had a lot of fun together, camping, partying, theater, movies, helping each other plan our weddings... just when we were starting families, they got transferred out of state, and we lost touch. Thanks to Facebook, and later their move back to Minnesota, we've reconnected. What fun! I've had the good fortune to reconnect with friends from the past in the last few years. It's really a lovely thing when someone knows your back story and you know theirs. Getting up to speed on the intervening years goes quickly, and it's like you've hardly been apart at all.
I drank a lot of red wine over the course of the evening, and I ended up sleeping so well. :) I slept 10 hours!!! It felt so good.
DH and I tried a new restaurant for lunch today. It was Minneapolis Restaurant Week, and this restaurant had an interesting prix fix menu for the event. 3 courses, so I now have a million take out boxes in the fridge.
DH mentioned we should go listen to music tonight. I'm not sure I need TWO outings today, but if he picks a place, I'll go.
Tomorrow we have a co ed baby shower for our good friends' grandchild. Beautiful couple, we've known the Dad to be since he was 7. :) There is so much richness in having these life long connections. It brings me a quiet, but deeply felt, joy.
