Jerrie's Birthday Celebration

What a girl's night this turned out to be! Seven of us went to Texas Star for dinner followed by a game of bowling (which most of us had not done for 20+ years)! First we had to engage the young people around us to help set up the machines since we couldn't quite figure it out, then the "game was on"! On my first turn, I decided that I could remember all those things I used to do and went out strongly .. taking my steps .. aiming .. swinging .. letting go .. falling .. falling .. rolling down the aisle. Darn it - if the ball won't take out those pins, I WILL do it personally. Fortunately I was able to crawl back off the oil slicked alley and, with Helen's help, stand up! Was I going to give up!?!?!? NO WAY. I came back and beat all the girls with a very strong 93! Nothing like humiliation to make you want to win. We laughed and laughed - as did those around us. Thank heavens Jerrie had a coupon for one free game for 10 people. I would hate to think we paid for the entertainment...people should have paid us! The ride home was another story in itself but I'll save that for another day (or year). Happy Birthday Jerrie - you requested a very energetic (?) exercise for us all.

How did it get to be April without me noticing?!?!?!

I can't believe it's already April! Obviously I've been lazy about posting but part of that is because my laptop is fried and I can't sit in my chair posting, surfing, reading, etc. I need to write Dell and let them know how I feel about the laptop I loved and lost all within about 15 months!

This past weekend was truly a great one. Friday we attended the Euless Police Awards Banquet and Saturday was the Euless Fire Awards Banquet. It is so great to see such deserving people recognized. Euless has the greatest first responders in the world!

Well....time to urge Don to start dinner. I'm hungry!
