Celebrating an ordinary day

Thurs.3/1/2012
This has been mostly an ordinary day. We had lunch at the Sr. Citizens Center. As usual a good lunch. I think they go heavy on the Brussel sprouts and zuchini squash, but I suppose people who don't like broccoli or corn think we have those things too often.  Yesterday, Ms. Nancy made a delicious, beautiful chocolate cake with yummy white cream icing to celebrate all the February birthdays.  Some of it was left for today.  I really enjoyed that.

Had a good tutoring season this afternoon.  This student has progressed so much since I started working with him.  A pleasure to work with him.

Stopped at H. E.B. to pick up groceries on the way home. We have to be thankful when we can buy groceries.  Paul is planning to make some home made tomato soup for Sunday dinner.  Think we'll make grilled cheese sandwiches to go with it.

The azaleas are blooming now, and the red buds are opened.  Around the bend, there are some long hedges of azaleas that are in full bloom. Beautiful! I will get pictures tomorrow.

A salesman came by the store this evening. Bert Wall has been calling on us since we opened the music store in 1996.  We were able to sit on the front porch and enjoy the south breeze while we visited and he showed us his latest specials.

To top off the day, we splurged in cash and calories.  We went to Dairy Queen for a Choco Cherry Blizzard. Delish! And helped cool us off on this rather warm evening.

I hope everyone has enjoyed the day!
