Hi Ladies,
I had a wonderful holiday weekend. I went down to Kay’s Monday afternoon & we grilled the steaks on a stove top grill she had. I made the potato
salad, cobbler, & corn on the cob. We were stuffed when we got done.
On Friday, I took the bus out to WalMart (Wally’s), & while I was shopping I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned & it turned out to be my niece’s hubby.
They were there cuz her mom had to use the rest room. ( Her mother & I both worked for Arlene & we became good friends. Hallie, her daughter refers to me as her “aunt Dianne”, & her mom’s best friend. they’re not blood relation.). Confused?? Sometimes so am I!!! So we shopped around for awhile & made plans to meet the next day (Sat,). We met up Sat. at one of the large malls down close to where they live. We left there & we went shopping in
places I hadn’t been to in yrs. It gave me a chance to spend time with them as I don’t get to see them very often. It was a lot of fun getting out of this place for longer than a few minutes. The weather was great all weekend. A marine layer of clouds would come in over night & then the sun would burn em off mid morning, so it wasn’t blistering hot. It was perfect!! And it’s been that way all weekend. It was a bit cooler than expected on the 4th, but that’s okay. it was better than 95 or 100!!! Jewell got upset when the fireworks started going off. It was kids or adults in the neighborhood setting em off even tho it’s illegal now. I had to put her in the bathroom & shut her in there for the duration. Poor baby!! She’s fine today.

About CIJ I’m thinking they didn’t show a lot of good stuff since it was a holiday weekend. So I figure they’ll have other shows later on with the good stuff. They’ll have shows all thru July I’m sure. Just be patient. What’s the Insider? Never heard of it.
