Just taking a little lunch break and wondering about each of you. Anything new and exciting going on with you-uns? Not much here.
Dan's daughter from Colorado - along with her boyfriend Sean, the BIG dog Stella and the sweet sweet baby Reilley have been with us since last Thursday. They really haven't been at the house much so it's not so bad. The dog is a pain in the butt - just because she's so big, not used to being on a leash - still a puppy (1-1/2 yrs) and weighs 120 pounds. They went to NYC for a few days and good old Dan volunteered to take care of the dog. He's had his hands full with both dogs. I think he 'might' have learned a lesson or two about dog sitting! I know, Diane, sounds like something right up your alley!
Sarah and Paul's wedding plans are coming along pretty well. You each should have gotten an invitiation by now - but knowing the two of them (2 peas in a pod) they can be a bit ditzy - and they haven't even been mailed! The wedding is going to be in this old restored theater in Mt. Veron and the reception will be on someone's farm near there (or maybe in Centerburg). Paul's mom used to do catering so she's doing the food - which will be mostly picnic kinds of stuff. I'm going out the day before and help chop and prep stuff with her.
I'm still incredibly sore and achy from my fall down the steps. I'm sitting here at work with both legs propped up and ice on the left one. The bruises are quite ugly. The only good thing is that they are in soft pastel colors - lilac, green, pink, etc. I went to the WC doc yesterday and he said it would take quite a while to mend. By the end of the day my feet - especially the left one - look like cute little sausages - not much of an approvement over the fat ankle syndrome of a while back! I really am getting better - no pity needed since I'm doing that well enough on my own!!! Hahahah - not really. It just darn is what it darn is!
Saturday Dan and I are taking Riley the dog to a reunion that's put on my the rescue group where we adopted him from. It's on someone's big piece of property - everyone brings their dogs and we all have lunch. They have a big pond, which all the dogs like to play in, and an area to give them a bath if we wish. We've not gone so it will be interesting to see how this works. Should be fun, I guess.
Sunday we are going to a cook out at the HeyHey in German Village - I think I'll call Gordo and see if he will meet us there. The menu will be Yak burgers and other more traditional sides. I think I told you but Sean, Ashley's boyfriend/husband type, parents own the HeyHey and they are quite the interesting pair - kind of stuck in the 60s. I'm sure a great time will be had by all!
Well, tell me some good things - or even bad things - just tell me some things.
Love to all,
Lizzie
