Birthdays and Food!!!

First of all, Happy Birthday Palmer Drum!! He is 11 years old today, can you believe that!  I bought him a ticket to go down to see his dad and fly as an unaccompanied minor.  This will be his 3rd time to do it.  The first time he did it I thought I would have a heart attack, but each time he goes, it does get a bit easier.  I still worry but I have to know when to let go sometimes.  I am not very good at that.  Anyway, he was very happy to get to visit his dad for a mini spring break. 

One drain came out today from my visit with the plastic surgeon.  If all goes well, the other one comes out this Friday.  I have never been so excited for a doctor's visit.   All is going well so far, so keep praying, they are getting answered!

Eat your heart out everyone…..I am having Mama Judy’s homemade tenderloins tonight…I know…jealousy….she is MY mom you know so I am entitled to all her awesome cooking!  My friend Stacy’s son Beau said the other night….. "That Al, he is so lucky.” And he said it so seriously!!!  I had to chuckle at that.  Yeah, Al, you are one lucky guy to get to sample of all Judy’s cooking for the rest of your life!!!  LOL!

One good thing about being sick is that people want to make things for you that they never make for you unless you are sick or it’s  a big birthday.  I love Gary Vaux’s shrimp dip.  I have had it 3 times total.  Once at their BBQ, once when I was house/babysitting Katie while they were out of town (yes I am old, get over it) and the last time they brought it for my 40th birthday.   Now they are bringing it to me again, and I cannot wait.  Should I really be this excited over shrimp dip?  Why yes, yes I should.

  1. hey girl, glad to hear you got a drain out! 1 step down!
    I bet it feels better to have the girls secure!! I think it feels better to have them secure rather than dangle. Even though the length of the dangle is much shorter now!! hahaha could not resist!! :) let me know if you need a ride to Dr, I am free and would LOVE to do it!! Take care sister XOXO!!
