A nice evening

Friday was nice. Our son went with friends to the Halloween Haunt so we went to dinner and a comedy show. Dinner was nice, it was a rib place. The comedy club was fun. They sat us right in the front so out of the six comics, four of them "picked" on us. One of them kept calling me Rapunzel. My husband was called "Thor" and "every Colombian drug lord in any movie." On said, "you look happy, this must be your first date". My husband replied, "No, married 18 years." The comic could not believe it. (We even got applause from the crowd.) Overall it was a very nice evening. Our timing was perfect because as we exited the club our son texted us to let us know he was done. We got home around 1:45.

Dinner's ready...

So, dinner came out pretty awesome last night. The only part hat wasn't good was the boy were late coming home. I got home for work and had an idea on what I wanted to make, only it's not at all what I made. I was going to make a chicken vegetable soup to use the veggies I had but then I ended up making meatballs and rice. This is my mom's recipe. It is made with golden mushroom soup for the sauce (with green beans). It really is very good and one of my favorites. My husband said that it is one of his favorites too. Honestly, I didn't even know that. I know what he likes to eat when we go out but was pleasantly surprised to learn this is one of really enjoys. My son also likes it. I wonder why I haven't made this in a while...hmmmmm *ponders:! I got home from work and started making the sauce, the meatballs (love the parsley in it), the (Spanish) rice and the green salad. Once everything was done, I was wondering where the boys were. I even had the table set and no boys! My husband had taken our son to get shoes after he picked him up form school. But, now here it is 7:35, dinner is read and they are not home. It took them an other hour to make it home (son in new shoes - and surprise, they were not Vans!). Even though they were late, a little reheat, and dinner was good to go!! :) ......and there was no leftovers!!

October?

How did it get to be October already? Life has been pretty hectic that past couple of weeks. I am still healing from my surgery 4 weeks ago. I go for my next follow-up in two weeks. I am hoping I will feel 100% soon. I also got back to the gym. I am easing back into it. I am trying to go at least four times a week. I am hoping to increase that soon! Our weather has been really weird. We had reacord breaking temps (113°) at the end of September and then a week later we were in the 60°'s and now we are back in the 90°'s.
