No Happy Hour for me

I decided to stay home tonight and just hang out with Justin. He got in late afternoon, while my friend was still here so he got to greet her. It had been a long time since they saw each other but he was too filthy to hug anyone. 

For dinner we dined on leftovers, as I had made a wonderful meatloaf for his dinner last night. To make the meatloaf, the first one in ages and ages, was to mix the hamburger with half a package of Stove Top stuffing, two eggs, a little water and then put it in a loaf pan. Over the top I put some bacon strips and ketchup. Turned out perfectly! Not as good as Mom's or as good as Cracker Barrel's but it was the best I've ever made. Next time, I am adding pickle juice to jazz it up!

I had met my friend for lunch at Grumpy's, where I have nearly exhausted my gift certificate from Rosalie and Hal. Only $2.50 left on it, enough for a soda! Then my friend, J, and I went for a car ride, showing her the area. The rest of the time was spent sitting in my river room, catching up and looking at my scrapbooks, etc. I can't imagine where the time went! I got nothing done desk-wise so will have some catching up to do tomorrow!

Speaking of tomorrow, I already have a full day. First I have Bible study at Victory (did my homework tonight!), and then a phone call to make on the ride home. Then, my friend, Carol, is coming over so she can have a little 'vacation' in the river room. We have some meetings coming up for which we (I) need to prepare so this should be quite interesting. I am ready!

A couple things have happened in recent weeks via Facebook, like finding long-lost friends and making new ones. One site I am a 'member' of concerns all things Manitowoc. From that site I have become friends with two ladies from my home town. One had mentioned taking her mom to Easter worship at my home church. That opened a door for me to get to know her and hear her story, etc. Another lady has done a family tree on my mother-in-law's side of the family, which even includes me! She has, I think, 3500 names on the tree, which is amazing to consider. It has to be quite the growth if I made the list! I very much enjoy chit-chatting with these ladies, plus with my old friend, and it's no wonder I get nothing done on my desk!
