Double Celebration

Tonight, we not only celebrated the hubby's big birthday but we celebrated our friend's 20th Wedding Anniversary too. I had seen my friend at work yesterday when he stopped by and I asked him what he and his wife were doing for the big celebration. He said they may go out. I told him about our dinner and asked if he wanted to tag along and him and the wife agreed. So that is how we got to celebrate a wedding anniversary with our birthday.

It's hard to imagine friends our age who have been together for 20 years but it looks like we have one set of friends who fit just that distinction. Who are these people you ask? They are no other than the Forsgren's, whom were married when they were 18 and 20 years old. As if that isn't amazing enough in this day and age, they married after only knowing each other for 6 months.

The four of us went to Ruth Chris Steak House for dinner to celebrate. Ruth Chris is known for their 500 degree buttery cooked steaks that are ooh ooh good! Ruth Chris is pretty good about asking you if you have any special occasions when you call to make reservations and so of course I said, yes, we have two. When we arrived at our table there were cards and beads that outlined our celebrations and then our waiter made a big deal. After enjoying our second great meal at Ruth Chris our waiter brought out some free dessert which we all enjoyed.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...
