Hi all...up early (for me) ...7:30, and worked in the yard until 10. Mowed my little patch of lawn and weeded, etc. I'm having a party for 40 people on Sat, so had to do last-min. things.

Now I've done my menu and I'm off to the Central Market for cheeses and giant Tiger Prawns and flowers.... and then good ole HEB for the rest since it's cheaper!!!

I have to pick up DH at the airport at 9 tonight and he wants to eat out that late!! So I just researched restaurants that stay open late...found one Italian (Carmelo's) one French (Chez Nous) and one Columbian (Dona Emelia). He can take his pick...I made reservations at all 3.

It's wondeful to have all the "alone time" with a DH who works out of state and flies in Fri and leaves Monday at 2, but I have to do everything!!!...the weekends are his "down time" and he needs to relax. That's okay...I like it that way!!

See y'all on Monday, probably, as my DD and DBFOD (boy friend of daughter!! ) are coming in for the weekend.
I"ll post the coffees tonight before I leave...hope it won't be too confusing!!

Here is Brutus, the one-year-old tabby we just adopted last Saturday. He's an assertive but affectionate and smart boy!
