FANTASTIC !!!

What a day today was. Work was hectic, customers were cranky,
fellow employees were not happy . IS THERE A FULL MOON ?!?!?!?

BUT....the evening brought much joy for one VERY LOVELY LADY (MOM).And two "YOUNG "ladies, that being the former Lady's daughter(Margie) and daughter-N-Law (ME) ,much happiness & laughter.
My darling,dear HUSBAND is on OKC watching the BASKETBALL
GAMES!!!!

SO.....I decided to fix a PICNIC BASKET,went and got
Margie then headed over to Rolling Meadows for an INDOOR PICNIC !! WHAT FUN WE HAD !!
The old fashioned picnic basket was loaded with goodies.
Fried CHicken (Mom's FAVORITE), mashed potatoes,gravy,french cut green beans seasoned with bacon grease & sauted onions , carrots,cottage cheese, and a fresh fruit bowl. We even had a red/white checkered tablecloth!!! {NO ANTS !}
Mom had a GRAND OLE time. She eats like a bird but it made me feel good to see her break her dinner roll in half and put gravy over it !! (Yes, I made the gravy myself!) She normally does not eat bread.
She made me take all the leftovers home but I insisted she keep the fresh fruit. She demanded to know who would eat all of it and I let her know that SHE would. She had been picking pieces out of
it all throughout the meal ! ! !! She is SOOO funny, and so beautiful...
Margie & I had A FANTASTIC TIME. We had family,fun,food and
LAUGHTER. We left her happy, with a full stomach,sitting in her
recliner, with a smile on her face. Wish everyone could have joined us for the FANTASTIC THURSDAY EVENING PICNIC ! !
Good night to all and GOD BLESS
