Home bound hubby chit chat..................

The last two weeks we have been blessed by wonderful kids that have gone out of their way to be of help to us.
Last week, Adam drove down from Ft. Worth to take some things back to Sarah. Well, it turned out that he needn't have done it. Sarah has a washer and dryer here that had been given to her. It was taking up a huge space in the garage, I didn't tell her that Adam was coming down, and when she found out, Told Adam, please don't bring them right now. So it wound up being a nice visit, but all he took back was a table and chairs for him. I fed him good though, fried rainbow trout and the goodies to go with it.
Last night, Carol and Becky came over to offer lawn mowing services. Bless his heart, he was still feeling the effects of the crud but was more than willing to help. (Hubby is still hobbling around with a cane) Sarah and Cipriano had already planned to come down to they were going to do the lawns and the trimming. They got here a little bit before 10AM and by 11:30 were finished! Cipriano even did some badly needed edging in the back flower beds. Poor hubby had a nervous breakdown! He just isn't comfortable watching some one doing his job, but he got over it. I think I know what he was going through, I would just hate having to watch some one clean my house.lol
I made some beans, BBQ'd spare ribs, deviled eggs, guacamole and chips. This meal ( if i can brag a little) was most excellent! We had 2 cakes for the birthday girl. A tres leches cake, and a cherry cheese cake.
Happy birthday to my little girl!! She will be 27 next week. She even took a part time job starting this week, working for Linen's and Things. It will be about 20 hours a week, and she is looking forward to it. With her full time job and Cipriano's job they do nicely but they have dreams of more so she is working to help fulfill that dream. More power to her!
My daughter-in- law Joan called to let us know that her eldest daughter Kelly is officially engaged to her long time boyfriend. I wish both of them well. No long term plans as yet, both are attending college. Kelly is so pretty, Blake just wanted to make is mark........lol Congrats.!
We had a very scary day or two about our brave Gr. Grandson Jerrett. He was in a lot of pain and it took exploritory surgery to rule out appendix, but the Dr.s felt it was probably a viral problem. He is home now and many Prayers were with him guiding back home.
