Friday Evening

Hello.    I have been off and about and not hanging around as I had places to go and things to do.  The little bird is still on the roof top and seems to be content.  The air is cooler, but it is not Fall yet and I am tired of hot and sultry weather...but not tired enough to stay in...smile....I was invited to go the Casino and you know that I never learned to say no to such an invitation.   The ride is always lovely, the company always good and of course the chance to play and win a million is always in mind but never, and I mean never in the pocket book as the machines have a playful thought of teasing you with the thought of winning a million but parts with a few shekels and grins...and that is just the machine...smile.   I like to play Keno and try a series of special numbers that are as ancient as I am and only a few come up while the others stay hidden in the machine.  The point is that you can have a winning combination but it is illusive and hard to find so you just combine a few and hope for the best...smile.

It was fun to go to the Buffet and fill up.   The food is good...tasty...and you pick and choose from soup to desert and all you can possibly hold.   And....the ride back is always short, or at least seems so, as you join the parade of cars wending their way along the highway.   I usually get to sit in the rear seat of a car and I have the delightful time of studying the cloud formations.   The imagination soars and you could write a tale or two as you find people, places and faces within the formations.   It is a wonderful past time and fun. 

So I did neglect you today, not meaning to, of course, but you could have come along had you been here instead of there.    Give that a little thought, maybe you will decide a trip this way isn't impossible...maybe a bit hard but thinkable..smile!!

I am 'home';  have had a few drop ins, one brought her bottle of liquor and we made a high ball...been awhile, but I still can make a good one...ha.ha.   The fan is on , the trees are still, it is still light out thee and there are hardly any cars in the lot.   It is Friday evening ..feels like Sunday....I have laundry to do but have to wait until tomorrow.  Today is my day but as I told you, I had other 'fish to fry', smile!!!

So I did not forget you and thought of you a dozen times wishing you were there 'egging' me on.   I didn't leave all my shekels behind and will go another day and try again. Meanwhile, back to earth, to work, to catch up and as the old saying goes... "live and love another day'.....I'd like it to be with YOU but beggars cannot be choosers...lucky you...or you would be sitting right here.  smile!!!

So....Go....have a good rest of the day to yourself and catchup with a note or two to me.   To those who called and I did not return them..now you know..smile.   I love you and am thankful for YOU....catch up with all your news...hope it is good and you are feeling G R E A T!!  Hugs to all.
