I am sitting here listening to Pink Martini. I think they are just the best group and the fact that they came out of Portland certainly doesn't hurt. I just ordered their third CD from their website and saw that they will be in LA so I ordered two tickets and plan on taking Michelle. Sort of an early birthday present. She also likes them and I think will enjoy it as long as the "little girl" doesn't decide to make an early appearance. She is due June 10th. Her friends from Seattlle flew her up there for a baby shower last weekend. She said she got so many cute outfits for the baby.
My friend Linda just had her second grandchild. A little girl, well not so little as she weighed in over 10 pounds. Her Mom Megan is a tiny one so I imagine she was glad to pop that one out. They have named her October Rose but plan on calling her Toby. At first I was a bit taken back by the name but then I remembered when I was pregnant with Isaac and Dad was overseas in Korea. I was sure I would have a girl and was going to name her Strawberry Fields and nickname her shortcake. Well it was the 70's. But alas Dad came home early and we had a boy so no Shortcake. I did think it was funny that Mike went shopping for baby clothes and he came home with several adorable girlie outfits. One little dress had strawberries all over it. And he said it was for Strawberry Fields. Who said the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Or in this case the strawberry doesn't fall far from the vine.
Sorry I missed last weeks blog. It just seemed I didn't have any stories to tell. I spent Saturday getting a pedicure and hair cut. This is my second pedicure and hair cut and I just can't seem to find someone that satisfies me. Mary Etta, tell that gal in Newberg I miss my pedicures. I did find a dollar book store. I thought I had died and gone to heaven when I found it. I came home with two big bags of books.
I sure enjoy my roommate Diane. She does the cooking and I clean and let me tell you I have the better of the deal. She is a wonderful cook. Last night she fixed a baked chicked seasoned with rum and ginger and was so delicious I wanted to eat the whole thing. She loves to cook and hates to clean so it works for us both.
Love to you and yours,
