Ok everyone's drinks are ready - first round is on me!
Not too much to really report on in my life. Although I was thoroughly surprised on Friday night when I got home. Walked into my living room and there was D17 home from college on a surprise visit!!! She purchased a bus ticket to come up and a train ticket to go back home on Sunday, so I was over the moon and shocked to see her. While I know she was glad to see me, I suspect the main purpose of her visit was to see her boyfriend - but hey that's fine with me, I got to spend quite a bit of the weekend with her and she REALLY appreciated the two home cooked barbecued meals I made for her!
Next week my mother comes up to visit me for a couple of weeks. I have a lot planned for the time she will be here. We're going out to Columbus Ohio to visit my Son the first weekend. GF is accompanying us and D16 is going to do most of the driving so that she can get her 45 hours of driving time finished up and receive her license. The second weekend we are going to travel to Richmond to see D17 and let her give my mom a tour of the VCU campus. I also have a behind the scenes White House tour arranged through a friend of my who works there. Mom has always wanted to see the White House so this will really be a nice treat for her.
Well - I guess I had more to write than I thought. Oh I almost forgot, I have a ticket to the first NLDS game on Friday when our Nationals take on either the SF Giants or Pittsburgh Pirates.
