Let’s see…cramming to get all my school work done before my brother came into town to surprise my dad. He flew in Friday afternoon, so I had a bunch of work for my computer class. We hung out at home Friday night as he had some school work to do with a deadline, watched some of his shows on the Scyfy channel, and relaxed.
Saturday morning Adam had a St. Patrick’s Day parade at a retirement community with his NJROTC unit. He’s on the armed drill team…it was his first time, so he was a little nervous but he did fine. I have some of it on video and a few pictures to post. Afterwards, we headed up to my Dad’s to surprise them. And surprise him we did!! The funny thing is every one of the other kids called while we were there! Donna, George and Little G came over…it was great seeing them (G just turned 4!!) though Donna did take a lot of teasing from Randy. But that’s just his “charming” personality shining through. Gave me a break though! Trying to put together a Party on the Potomac this summer - hope we can get everybody there - it’d be fun to see how many people he can really fit on the boat. Or in his house! I think I’ll throw the extra air mattresses in the truck just in case. We left around 6pm and headed home. Tried to make it out to the beach before the Harley store closed, but didn’t make it. We grabbed a couple Pina Colada’s and appetizers at the Palm Pavilion before getting some sand & shells from the beach. Too bad it was about 50 degrees and crazy windy…but we toughed it out.
Darned time change had us up early…Randy for the airport and me for church. Hope he made it on time, with the tube of beach sand! Took a midterm test for my Nutrition class and got an A on it. One down, 4 more tests this week. Then back to church to show the movie Fireproof. Good, good movie! I always have good intentions for coming home and doing more school work, but usually end up reading email, talking on the phone with friends and unwinding. Tomorrow’s another day!
