Today we had a major breakthrough. We got the Princess and Sheepie talking to each other without any ugliness occurring. They teased each other but we ate a meal together. Sheepie helped me make the mashed potatoes that we ate with our meatloaf. She was surprised that I added cream cheese to it but it makes for such tasty potatoes. I do the same thing to cauliflower when I make it mashed up. Today we had it just nuked and, I have to tell you, I prefer it boiled. When you nuke it, it just doesn't get all hot like it should. Plus it stays a bit tough.
Tomorrow I will throw the remainder of it into a pot and boil it up. I'll serve it with the leftover meat loaf. I also have enough mashed potatoes for a meal so I'm set. But the best part of today was having the Princess and Sheepie talking to each other like two human beings. Sheepie teased the Princess about being pregnant and asked what Johnnycakes was hoping for. He wants a boy, of course and the Princess said if she DOES have a boy, then she is done with having kids. Chewlee wants a baby sister but I told her that she will have to take whatever her mommy has. She's been asking questions about why babies have to wear diapers and did she have to wear them when she was a baby, too? I told her that babies just aren't big enough to go to the bathroom by themselves if she thought about it.
There's a baby piglet on her Peppa Pig show she watches and that baby always seems to be crying. She wanted to know why a baby cries so much. I told her they usually only cry if they need their diaper changed, if they are hungry or if they are startled by noises around them. She thought about it and said she hoped their baby was a good one and didn't cry all the time. Poor thing. She just doesn't have a clue although she's wanted a sibling forever.
I think she will enjoy having a baby around, especially if she gets to hold it. That will thrill her to death.
I don't think I told you about going out to dinner with Mustachio yesterday or did I? I didn't go out to eat although I ate some of the wings and onion *needles* as they are called at the restaurant we went to. Sheepie is thrilled that she got back into her *skinny* jeans although I wouldn't call them *skinny*. But she looks great and not like she's anorexic. I don't think she would look well if she was really thin. She looks perfect at the size she is right now.
I have had a nice visit with Mustachio (although he no longer has a mustache). He looks a bit strange to me without one even though it's been a while since he shaved it off. Chewlee called him *Uncle Icky* after my brother, Dee. We kind of helped that along but it doesn't apply now. There will always only be ONE Uncle Icky.
We didn't get to see Tara while Mustachio was here, which was a shame but she is so darn busy with her business. By the time she gets home and feeds her family, she's bushed. There will be other times, I'm sure, now that Mustachio has a good car. This one he doesn't have to worry about it breaking down on him like his old vehicle.
Weather was nice today although it was overcast. Mustachio helped his dad move Dennis' refrigerator out of the RV. It has a leak and there's no room inside to fix it. It had to be moved so Dennis could take care of the problem. AT least we didn't get any rain.
Love you all. Have a great Friday and, if you stop for a drink or three, have one for me. **Wink**
