LIFE IS UNCERTAIN

I think someone once said, "Life is uncertain, eat desert first," so tonight that is just what I have done. Today is Andrew Davis Moyer's first birthday so at 5:30 we had a little birthday soiree at Jill and Tony's place and I ate cake. Andy was not very happy at the party because he had been for his one year shots today and had four of them. He was a little cranky but did seem to warm to the idea of presents.

I am waiting now on a friend with whom I'm going out to dinner this evening so I had the desert first. I'm thinking a little steak would be nice. Every once in awhile I crave a little of the side of the cow. I only have it about once a week (the beef, that is.) A lot of days I have no meat which is good for me. Being a corn fed Indiana babe I like my country food like roast beef, fried chicken, corn on the cob, tomatoes and green beans--good summer fare.

My cousin, John Ahlemann, and his dear wife are coming tomorrow from Memphis for a few days. All the family will enjoy being together once again. John has been a men's hair stylist for over 40 years and gave my little John his very first haircut. I'm hoping that he gets to give Andy his first haircut.

This is a pretty slow newsday but it has been a good day. I'm feeling a lot better since my child care job has ended. Yeah!!! Life suddenly got better when I knew I didn't have to go there anymore.
