Tuesday was a big day. The Eastside Art Group met at Erin's clubhouse and even though there were only five of us, it was such a long, but fun day. The day was made extra special by Libby stopping by with her sister and 7 month nephew, Fisher, who was the star of the day. Linda's creative tree's out of cardboard, were a big hit, I meant to take more project photos, I did take 48 of Fisher!

 

  

Then home to get ready to be picked up by Courtney, Brandon, Noel and Nova at 5:30. They had invited me to join them at

We  met Jean &Craig, Edelia, Roberto and Dawn.  Dawn and Roberto are in town from Colorado and requested Peruvian food, not available in Colorado. Four are former students, three are parents of former student and also good friends, and two are pre-teen and teenagers daughter of former students, so 10 in all.

The food was fantastic, and being together was even better.

After a great meals and conversation, there was an 

unanimous vote for ice cream and a nearby venue.

I am so lucky to still have these families let me tag along. To have such good people in my life is truly a blessing. Later that evening I was working on Wednesday's blog, here, and fell asleep on the computer, but it was more than worth it.

I saw this, though I usually don't play along, this time I did.

I have done 45 out of 50, that's an A-? 

Given 82+ years on the planet, you get stuff done!

So for extra credit, tell me your number?

For extra, extra credit, guess my missing five?

C'mon, humor me. This could be fun!
