THOUGHT: "PUT YOUR HEART, MIND AND SOUL INTO EVEN YOUR SMALLEST ACTS.
THIS IS THE SECRET TO SUCCESS!" Swami Sivananda
Friday started out as our usual Friday - We went to the temple clinic - it was a slow day in the clinic and Peg went and learned how to crochet an Afghan - her next project. We brought the Anderson's home but stopped at Costco for some purchases and lunch (they have the hotdog and drink for $1.75 US. We than came home and started moving to our room with a view. It is all on one floor and has a window to the outside. (Never mind that all we see is the wall of the next door casino.) Saturday started early with all the couples in the hotel helping us move. Of course mom slept in and was in the shower when everyone got there. We finished in about 1 hour except that everything was in boxes. The Rices wanted to go to Chapultepec park and see the Botanical Gardens. They were disappointing but the lake was beautiful. We caught a taxi to cross the main freeway to the other side of the park where there is another lake with a beautiful restaurant where they had a wonderful buffet on the edge of the lake. We made it home late and had a movie night at the Anderson's - The Inn of 6th Happiness (1958 movie with Ingrid Bergman.) Sunday was usual - Spanish church at 9 and settling in afterwards - empty boxes etc. Mom made a great dinner and that was it.
This is Peg - so I decided to assign Greg to write for this weekend and that is what you get! He got a lecture from me and will have to work harder next week, or he may lose his job doing the blog!
Saturday was little Max's 1st birthday and all the kids were together for the first time since I left! That was so fun to see them together! I don't think they miss us any more!😂 I guess that is a good thing but I miss them still!! Max is growing up so big, so fast! He is the happiest little guy on the planet!
I have put together a Fast Sunday dinner schedule for all the couples here! Sunday afternoons are pretty boring! I think I miss my family the most on Sundays because I loved it when they all came over and spent the evening! I couldn't get enough of the noise and confusion! Someday their parents will understand, I hope!!! So I am making all the couples get together and bring something for the dinner just to have some noise and someone to talk to - you all know how good Greg is at conversing!- Just like this blog he wrote!
Hasta Luego!
