This last weekend we celebrated, cried over loosing a beautiful person and whined about getting older. INO ....
Liz and I hosted a party for our mommie who just retired after 30 yrs of service at TAFB. We are both so proud of her!! The awards they gave her were ones not many get at all and some were very unique in nature. Like the flag that flew in THREE of the planes she worked on OR the coins from departments she helped get work for. Ya some awesome awards and TONS of memories.
The party also welcomed Liz and her family back into their home. They had been out of it for two months while it was being repaired. We know that feeling all too well and know they are glad to be back in their own beds.
The third event this party celebrated was Liz and Dustin's birthdays. Her's was the 4th and his the 6th. I got Liz a set of To-Go mugs that screamed her name LOL! * I will attach a picture of them* Dustin had gotten his gift from us back in March ... Mass Effect 3 Collectors Edition. Boys and their games. LOL!
After the party I was able to take a moment and lift up all those who were able to attend Angela's funeral. It was a hard day for them and I know they all suffered from aching hearts. To loose such a wonderful person and friend so suddenly makes it hard to fully accept and understand that she is gone. She is very missed.
As always life goes on and hours pass and the calender turns to the next day. We all took it easy Sunday and I worked on more items for the yard sale Saturday. Today we worked on the yard. I almost did a jig in the garden when I saw what had sprouted over night. Green Beans!!! Went from a dirt bed to plants in a matter of hours. I am just so beyond happy the weather is allowing us to have some form of a garden this year... so far atleast. I know those HOT days of summer are knocking at our door. Just praying that we don't have over 55 days of triples like last year.
Not too much more to report on. Wrote a Bitch letter to news 9 on a story about a snake round up they reported on and the two guys at the desk were laughing as they reported the snakes mouths were sewn shut so they could be used in photo opts. Animal cruelty and they found it to be funny. I demanded they issue an apology and give a new report that has been researched fully and shows how these animals go with out food and water all in the name of making a dollar. UGH! It makes me sick to think about what they put them through. AND I am NOT a fan of snakes. LOL!
Ok My Freaky Darlings it is after midnight and I have class to teach in the morning so I am headed to bed. Have a wonderful Tuesday!!!
We have Green Beans!!!
