The Good Stuff

It's been 4 whole years I have waited. 4 patient, excruciating years, and finally it is here...
FIFA World Cup 201o. South Africa.
I'm not sure how I am going to get anything else done in the next few weeks. The games start every morning at 4:30 Pacific Time. Ugh. Yet completely worth it.
I drag myself out of bed, flop on the couch and listen to the droll of the fans until the 1st match is over, then back to bed for a quick hour nap.
At 6:30 I get up and shower, getting my makeup put on and my breakfast eaten on the couch again for the 7:00 a.m. match, getting to watch at least the first half of the 2nd game of the day.
At work, I try to see all my patients so I can go to lunch at 11:30 so I can watch the 3rd game of the day and chart. If it's a slow day, I get to see the whole game. If not, well, any World Cup is better than no World Cup.
I'm hoping Germany takes it this year. England and US tied the first match. We shall see how it goes.
In the mean time, I will be cheering on my favorite teams.
Who are you cheering for?

Happy Birthday

So it took me a few days to get around to posting this, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY Grandma!!!! We celebrated at 94th Aerosquadron, still a favorite.
Lovely desserts for a lovely woman.
I won't say how many years old she is now. Nor will I mention which anniversary of her 21st birthday we celebrated.
She is beautiful, and I thoroughly enjoyed spending the afternoon with her. I love you, Grandma! Happy (few days later) Birthday!!!
