Now that I’m a winner I have Chick-fil-a for dinner*

by chuckofish

Well, I survived 2 nights/3 days with Mr. Smith and rather enjoyed having the little fellow visit. I talked to more neighbors than in a month of Sundays! Nevertheless, I was relieved to see see him go home with daughter #1 when she arrived from her visit to Illinois!

I forgot it was St. Patrick’s Day on Sunday and went to church wearing a green silk jacket (I thought it looked appropriately springy). Zut alors! I do not as a rule wear green on St. Patrick’s Day! My red-haired Scottish friend Moira, who sits behind me in church, called me on it immediately. (Her husband was wearing an orange tie.) I said, “I forgot what day it is!” Well, I have some Ulster-Scots ancestors, so sue me.

After church the boy dropped by unexpectedly with the twins, who had been hiking in Castlewood State Park. (They are camping at home tonight because the temperature is dropping precipitously–thus the change of plans.)

I was glad to see them, although I had no special Sunday food to share. We snacked on Honey Nut Cheerios. When they left I think they were headed for Uncle Bill’s diner–Mom is out of town.

Daughter #1 came over in the afternoon after her busy day and we watched The Quiet Man–wonderful.

And here’s a new song* from Steve Martin to get your blood pumpin’ on Monday!
