Time Flies

and not always when you're having fun. It seems I woke up today and thought, "Oh, I have a blog." Gracious. There are some excuses, but they remain excuses. One of my hobbies is hospitals. The last visit was fascinating. I swallowed a pill cam and it recorded everything it saw on the way down. If I can get the movie, it'll be quite fun to watch.

Actually, I have been having fun, for the most part. I spent many days getting ready for company. Joe's oldest son is getting married and his fiancee and her parents came to visit. They came as friends and left as family. We are blessed to share our children. They are warm, wonderful and felt like lifetime friends.

It's my girlfriends that helped carry it off. Patty got me ready food wise. Barb went through my house and stashed all those things I couldn't see. And, I got a massage right before they came, thanks to Patty's planning.

On Sunday, Patty and Maggie hosted a shower for Melissa.

We played games, ate great food and enjoyed friends. There seems to be a consistent theme of "friends" here, have you noticed? And then, we celebrated San Antonio Fiesta. San Antonio can party like no other city. It's a cascarones free-for-all.
