I Was Thinking.......

.....about life in general.  It's like this...I would never, ever have believed that I would be married for 50 years.  Never.  And yet, on the first of August, that's when I will celebrate my 50th wedding anniversary.

A friend sent the Beast and I a gift certificate for Red Lobster (I had mentioned that is where I asked him to take me for dinner).  Now I am thinking that, if I didn't have this damn incision to worry about, I would try to look good for that special night.  You know what I mean..maybe a new outfit...get my hair done and my nails.  I haven't had so much as a manicure in about 10 years.  I would ask the Princess to come and do my makeup for me (she is so good at it!).  That way I would feel more upbeat about the day.  But, oh well!  I can't really plan on doing anything except maybe have my hair done on Friday.  That will help boost my spirits a lot just by itself.

Another thing that's been on my mind is that all the idols I had when I was young are either dead already or look like they have one foot in the grave.   The new movie stars are relatively unknown to me except for a few that I have their movies on DVD.  But I no longer harbor those feelings that they might park their shoes under my bed one day...if only!  LOL!  The only reason they might these days is because they need mothering while ill !  I have NO illusions left.  Sigh!  Too sad.

The Beast had a taste for a steak and cheese sandwich that a local Italian restaurant makes so I called and order us each one and a side order of Pepperoncini.  It comes with fries but I usually only eat two or three of those.  It tasted wonderful for a change.

Love you all.  I have to get this leg up for a while now so I am going to post this early.  I hope you are having a wonderful week.  Cross your fingers for me for tomorrow.  If nothing else, my leg should be more comfortable when I need to extend it.  No more pinching from staples.  ***Hugs***
