Wow. Three kids showed for Wyatt's party. Let me tell you it was a real nail biter waiting for those three kids. Mike, Mom, Wyatt and I stood there looking in every passing car for familiar eight year olds. Alas, none. About ten minutes after four the faithful three showed up and the party was saved. I would have been rolled up on the floor crying, but Wyatt was happy to see his friends and anxious to get in the pool! They all had a great time swimming and eveyone got as much cake as they could eat and Wyatt was happy. What more could you ask for (other than the hundred dollars back you dropped on the pool)
We stopped by the store on the way home and bought some health concious food. Blech.
I think I will make it through the day with one point to spare, and yes that is counting the cake I had at the party.
I went to the big house when I got home to see what I had missed this afternoon. Mike C had called and Grampy was telling me about the Carlson Canadian weekend. John and Donna had spent the afternoon visiting, and GK always enjoys them. Grammy was already in bed, although she was still awake due to her head bothering her. After taking her pills, she was ready to go to sleep and would just keep counting to ten until she either fell asleep or her head quit hurting. I'll have to ask her tomorrow which came first ; ) Gk's finger gout is still acting up, but as with everything else, he takes it in stride. I'm sure the thought of leftover Sponge Bob birthday cake made him feel a little better too!
Mike is off early tommorow morning to fish the river. As with hunting, I think we could have bought a lot of fish for what you pay for all the fishing stuff and get to sleep in on your day off, but I guess that's not the point. I'm just looking forward to getting some of the shrimp monsters out of the fridge!
