LAST WEEK GOT AWAY..........

I can't believe that the week flew by and for some reason I didn't have a lot of time to do anything on this Blog.

The usual things going on during the week.  My neighbor took me out for a long delayed birthday lunch.  She is going to be moving away and renting her home out.  I'll really miss her.  We don't see each other that often as she travels for business a lot.  She has her own Company and it keeps her really busy.  We had a great chat and actually spent three hours together.

I heard from one of my cousins from Ohio and another from New York.  It is nice to talk to them and find out what is going on in their life. The cousins, of which there are at least five or six that grew up together have always been close. Two of the group have passed away and aren't included in the five or six.

We had a Marine Corps Birthday Ball meeting last week.  We are really late on getting this together.  Finding a band is proving to be a challenge.  Everyone seems to be booked.

Bruno came down on Saturday.  He had a meeting in the North that didn't go well.  They were from the mid west and wanted to follow that States law. Since they were signing contracts in California they needed to follow California law.  Bruno said they hashed thing over forever and he finally had enough and walked away from the deal. He puts so much on his plate he is either exhausted or sick half the time.

We attended a Four Tops Review Saturday night and Bruno didn't feel well.  We left at Intermission.  I was okay with it since the event wasn't all that great.  It was a joint effort between the NAACP and the Elks and on the whole it went okay.  As with most things it can be hit or miss and we both felt it was a miss.

We came home and Bruno went to bed I watched a little t.v.  Sunday morning  we made "Toad in the Hole." and it really was good  Onions, leeks, bacon, sauteed spinach on toasted Brioche with  a fruit side.. We had breakfast on the back patio. It was a beautiful morning and my neighbor had great music on in the backyard which we really enjoyed. We sat under the table umbrella and relaxed  most of the morning.  He left around noon and will be back on the 20th from the South. My busy man.  At least he wants to come back to me which isn't easy when one lives in L.A. County and has to fight the traffic.

That's it for last week.  Meetings lunches, book club, and various other things going on this week

Until the next time.
