Friends of Long Standing

I worked most of the morning and then did bridge homework - don't ask- for part of the afternoon.  Also caught up by telephone with some friends in Chicago.

Terry worked in the morning and then went to the grocery store for the makings for dinner as our grammar school friends were coming for dinner.

Tom, Diane, Diane, Don were here for dinner.  Diane and Don just came in from a cruise and will be staying at a hotel in The Villages for a few days before they head back to the Chicago area - to do laundry and then head to Colorado for their grandson's first birthday.

Do you like our tablecloth?  There was no tablecloth in the house so we bought a Christmas tablecloth, on sale, the first week we were down here.  I'm telling you that eating breakfast on that tablecloth early in the morning can be a little much.  Good thing we don't drink - I cannot imagine what it would look like in the morning if one had a hangover!

We are hoping that Diane and Don will play bridge with us while they are here.  They said they would, we'll have to see if we can work it into the schedule.

Tom sent me the photo from their anniversary dinner at Nancy Lopez Country Club, with Terry and me in the photo and I've posted it on the January 27 page.

BTW:  Today is Abe Lincoln's birthday - Happy Birthday, Mr. President.  Pretend I'm singing it ala Marilyn Monroe to Jack Kennedy!
