Yesterday........The day began normally with my French Roast coffee on the patio.....cool and breezy and WONDERFUL!!!! The day moved swiftly........Anne-marie went to Farmington to the Bauhaus Kaffe Shop....and while up there worked on her wedding pictures. She had tons of them printed for us and gave them to us when she returned here to the sticknbrick.
I had talked with Sue Hanner during the morning....and she invited the 1st Lady and I over for 7pm......my impression was just for some drinks and snacks. Jeremy and Anne-marie were invited to a little party in Farmington, so they left late afternoon to go up there. And....then the 1st Lady and I went to the Hanner House around 7:30......
Well, as always, Chef Sue was preparing a 5 course dinner for us!!!!!!! Appetizers, soup, salad, main entree, and then dessert with coffee!!!!! By the time we finished, it was after 10pm.......and so, we adjourned from the dining table into the family room to moan and groan about how stuffed we ALL were!!!! GREAT food, GREAT hosts, GREAT friends!!!!!!
I remained up until 1am....as I could not go to bed with that much food inside my sagging hulk, which was sagging MUCH more than usual after pigging out on all of that food.
Sometime during the night Jeremy and Anne-marie returned to the sticknbrick. This morning......it was hectic....very hectic!!!!! They were leaving to go see Michael...and then from there they are driving on to Columbus, OH. The 1st Lady was leaving to go to Cape G., pick up Rachel and then drive to Dr. Jeni's home west of Washington, MO. Then....they were all to leave after 5pm this afternoon with their new motorhome towing their new boat.....with the 1st Lady and Dr. Jeni and some of the kids driving behind them in their new Suburban......to go to Branson for the weekend. As usual, they got a late start......par for the course with Dr. Jeni and Darrel.....and so, it will be QUITE LATE when they arrive down there.
I could not go as I have my appointment in the morning with the ophthalmologist at 9AM in Cape G........and then I will know more about the next few months for our schedule......all depending on his diagnosis of my eyes. Anxious to get this over with.......big time!!!!
And sooo, this afternoon I took a nap while it was quiet in the sticknbrick, did some laundry of towels, bed sheets, etc.......and just relaxed. It is soooo quiet here and I already miss Jeremy and Anne-marie not being here to talk with!!!!!!!! They will fly to NYC this weekend, then fly Tues night to Rome, Italy for 8 days before returning to Columbus. Then they will be moving for a few short months to Philadelphia, PA........a busy time in their lives. We hope to fly up to Philly while they are there to spend a few days seeing the city and the area in October, but it may not work out .....just have to see where our plans lead us after in the morning.
And sooooo, WOW....sooooo damn busy......soooo many things going on right now in our lives!!!! It will either keep us young.....or, age us terribly....haha!!! However......
LIFE IS JUST REALLY, REALLY GREAT!!!!!......And, I hope it is for all of you, also!!!!
