A better day!

My wife's family was here to celebrate her birthday - which was yesterday. I had read somewhere years ago that everyone should always have a birthday cake on their birthday and I wanted to make sure that this remained true for my wife. So it was a good day and one in which I, obviously, did not miss the event.

As most of you know, I am no cook! So we ordered Chinese food and it made it easy for everyone to better enjoy the day.

But I am a painter, so tomorrow starts the preparation for painting our kitchen. I kind of look forward to it as I get a chance to go back to doing something constructive once more.

This coming weekend we are making another foray to the lake compound of my brother-in-law's and sister-in-law's. Hopefully the weather cooperates.

My health remains robust - having stopped one of my immuno-supressants hasn't affected me in any way. Thank God!

Nothing really serious or of great import today.

After all, it is Sunday...
