Week 10 Friday

Yippee it's Friday!  Don't know why I should be excited about it, everyday lately is like Friday.

Well, they got the new trailer moved in yesterday.  Looks very nice, but it sure made the yard a lot smaller.
It was small to begin with.  Will be interesting to see who they rent it to.  Probably someone with 4 - 5 kids again.  You know, this end of the court used to be really quiet, not too many kids, but boy oh boy has that changed. The worst part is that the parents send all of these little kids (under the age of 5) outside to play with no supervision!  Of course, they play in the street, someday someone is going to get run over and it will be the driver's fault, never the kids or the parents.  Just don't understand it.

Arlen grilled pork chops the other day.  They were so good.  That first grilling in the Spring is always the best.  Kind of like the first sweet corn of the season, always the best.  As of right now we are planning on putting the turkey on the grill for Easter as long as the weather co-operates.  I would also like to do an egg hunt for the 2 little ones.  I thought I had at least one extra week, but nope, Easter is on the 4th, not the  11th.  Will have to get my you know what together this coming week.  That's okay, I really don't mind, and I'll just put it down to old age setting in.  Everyone with the exception of Adam will be here.  He has to work that day, so will make sure to send back lots of leftovers for him.

Planning on having turkey, baked corn, green bean casserole and probably garlic mashed potatoes since we won't have any drippings for gravy.  Still have to come up with a salad.  Also planning on making an Easter bunny cake for desert.  The grocery store here had whole turkeys for 89 cents a pound so picked up a 16# turkey for that day.  Can almost taste it now.  Makes my mouth water just thinking about it.

We invited Arlen's folks up for Easter, but doubt that they will make it.  His dad is having some major health problems.  He has diabetes that they can't get under control and now it sounds as though he has blood clots in his legs, so it is hard for him to walk, let alone get out of chairs and vehicles.  It would be nice if they made it, but perfectly understandable if they don't.

Whatever you plans for Easter are, enjoy your time with family, friends and anybody else you run across.
Talk to you on Monday.
