The wind changed our plans...

Good morning, Ladybugs. I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.  We had a  great one.


It began on Friday when DH and I decided to take an evening walk on the boardwalk.  When we got there, it was way too windy and cold. (we didn't realize it would be so windy as it's protected back here where we are) So we went to plan B, one of our favorite downtown hangouts, The Back Porch, and had drinks and appetizers.  Ran into some old friends and just hung out for the rest of the evening. 


Saturday night, DS, his GF,and my friend, Karen, came over for dinner. We cooked steaks out on the grill.  Another good time.


Last night we had to go to plan B once again. WE had to change our cookout plans for the beach because once again it was too darned windy.  I invited everyone here. There were 12 in all, 4 of my family, the rest from the GF's family.  They brought all of the food, I just supplied the house. It was lots of fun. I got lots of nice gifts, a purse from DS & GF, a bracelet from DD (plus an invitation to go out to lunch with her on Wed.) and DH gave me a gift certificate for a spa day....whew! The GF's mother even gave me a little bag of hand lotions.  I made out like a bandit, didn't I?  But the important thing is that I got to spend the day with my family and you can't beat that.


Today, it's back to the  Y and back to tutoring...


I hope your day is a good one!

What is with all this wind? I swear it hasn't stopped blowing (hard) for 2 months. It's just been horrible. I'll bet those planes traveling from the west coast to the east coast are saving plenty on fuel...just riding the jet streams!

Sounds like a wonderful weekend for you. Did you like the "out-laws?" LOL

Shari we too have been dealing with winds. Dh is suffering with allergies and the wind is not helping.


Wow! you had a wonderful Mother's day, really nice gifts, especially the spa one from dh. But glad you could go to plan B.


Glad

Well, Shari, it sounds like all your plan changes were fun ones. Enjoy your spa day (great gift) and lunch with your DD. Mine took my mom and me out for lunch on Saturday. That was fun. You're right, the main thing is being with family.--Pat
