Visiting and such
Our trip to see the Matthew-man has been tons of fun thus far.
The Debster and I hit the open road early yesterday morning, and I'm pretty sure it only took about 2 minutes before we got our first dose of excitement.
We stopped at the Country Store because a new day had begun - meaning a new Diet Coke needed to come into my life. Also, I try not to travel without liquid refreshment. As I was pulling The Hoss into the parking lot a large hoopty-esque truck, packed to the gills with male passengers, decided it would be great to try and run into the side of us.
Doesn't that sound scary? You know what was really scary?
Deb screaming at the TOP of her lungs upon hearing me release a small, startled utterance.
I'm pretty sure the reason the hoopty fellows stopped was not because they realized a huge maroon bus was in their way. My guess is they heard the blood curdling screams, thought that a murder was surely occurring somewhere in the vicinity, and they wanted to check it out.
In the end, no Hosses were harmed.
Deb, happy to be alive, was excited to be road-trippin with her child (especially since it was on the way to see her other child).
Her tour guide was also happy. She likes big trucks and she cannot lie.
The trip. How do I describe it? Let's just say Deb and I have a humor all our own when it comes to each other, and it is in it's best form when trapped inside small areas for long periods of time.
We soon arrived at the home of my brother, the patient, who is doing really well after his back surgery. The pain he was having is completely gone and once his incision heals, he should be good as new. He's walking a little slower, but he is already back at work as we speak.
A trooper, he is.
Yesterday, after we visited at Matthew's house for a few minutes, we left to grab some lunch, or as I later renamed it: The time I got to taste the chicken salad they serve in Heaven.
It was then off to run some errands because even though my brother is a Back Surgery Rock Star, he is a BSRS who is not allowed to drive. Good thing we have sisters for these things.
He also can't bend which makes laundry a difficult task. Good things we have mamas for these things. (The sisters are not so much interested).
Home. Lounge. Movie.
Pretty soon it was food time again, so we met up with Matthew girlfriend Larsen, her sister, and her mom for supper.
Larsen my love and her sis Kati who is just a dear.
The Tysons. We also answer to the Whitesons.
After a very enjoyable and laugh-filled meal, we headed back to Matthew's to watch American Idol and call it a night.
Main source of excitement on today's schedule: Meeting Larsen for lunch at my brother's restaurant!
