Greetings From a Weekend Passed
So, what kept us busy this weekend? For once, not church! lol. We (Don, my dad and I ) are now the proud owners of a margarita machine. We tried it out over the weekend, and it worked like a dream. Yummy! Yummy! I'm looking forward to making some blue margaritas. We got the mix safely into the house (love ya', Lis!), so we're good to go. The guy we bought it from is really nice, so if anyone wants to purchase or rent a machine we know where to go.
Thanks to a mostly free Saturday, Don is close to being done with the kool deck. I keep trying to help, but he won't let me. Oh, well. I get a little frustrated that I can't do more. It seems like every project I'm interested in requires assistance except working on my craft room.
Saturday night was Jessica's birthday party at The Whiskey at Green Valley Ranch. We had a reserved area so we had a guaranteed place to sit all night. I don't understand why clubs don't have more seating, because it really is a pain to go out and have no where to sit and leave your stuff and your drinks. We had a really great time. (Missed you, Lisa!) I forgot how much I love to go out and dance. I don't even pay much attention to the people around me. I just like to dance. It has been way too long since we've gone out. Don't get me wrong, I hate getting ready to go out, and I hate the meat market atmosphere. But, I do feel good when I get there and I am so thankful that I'm not there to "meet" people. I would absolutely hate to be in that scene again. Jessica and I had a great time together on the dance floor. She says that we drew a lot of attention by our not very conservative style of dancing. In another life, we could probably make a lot of money... Maybe we did, but as I said before I didn't really notice. I'm out there to have fun not to score a date. Now, we need to get that girls' night going... Speaking of girls out dancing... someone I know was out at Margaritaville and I just wondered how that worked... Call me and we'll talk! :)
Sunday, we woke up far too early for having gotten home at 4:00am, but our home was elected for the Father's Day festivities so we had to roll out of bed and get ready for the eventual arrival of the fam. It was nice and laid back once people actually got there. Anthony gets the early award. I guess he was making up for being late to Dad's B-day party. Everyone left early, so we watched Ray (the movie) and then went to bed. Moral of the story: Drugs are bad. Honestly, I did not realize that Ray Charles had such a hard life or that he had broken down so many barriers in the music biz. He was a very smart business man despite all of his personal demons. I will say that his wife deserves sainthood. Wow, what a woman! Some people would say that she was nuts to stay with him, but I respect her resolve and strength. If you haven't seen the movie, rent it.
So, that was the weekend. This week's forecast: Back to normal during the week going into crazy party prep mode by the weekend.
