I am just stunned

There is no other word to describe it. My brother didn't forget the cruise at all, I was just on a different page than he was. I was thinking Sunday since I am off all day but he had other things going on that day. We went to lunch at Bubba Gumps yesterday with an old friend, Orland. I stayed at his house for a few months after I got here and never wanted to leave since he is so adorable and we are so alike, but he needed the space when his son came home from the Phillipines. Anyway, we had a wonderful time and here is one pic to prove it:




When we were getting ready to leave and I was chatting with Orland, Rich was scribbling on a little piece of paper. He hands me the paper with a name and number on it and says "when you get ready to book your trip to your H.S. reunion, call my travel agent and I'll treat you to it"....... OMG!!!!! I was a blathering idiot, in tears, off and on, for hours, I was so touched. WOW! So stunned it the right word.

I got more pics of the grandkids (the 3 oldest from that guy who was once my son before he said I was dead to him) that they took at Chuck E Cheese, they are black and white and the big ones are drawings but absolutely gorgeous. That Gen is my best friend (inside the family, along with my daughter of course) and so fun to talk to and laugh with. I wish she was here. *sigh* But I am going to go see her and the kids this summer when I take my trip.

Today I am going to do some baking--banana bread and maybe some cookies. I am hungry for deviled eggs, too, for some reason. Gotta go clean the kitchen some more (there is one corner where things just get stored but I really want that corner empty since I bought a washer and dryer last week and the HUGE kitchen is now seeming a tad crowded) and put my eggs on to boil. Plus, Mikes girlfriend is coming in on Friday and I don't want the kitchen looking like it does.

So, until later.. Love love to you all........
