De ja vu

Spending the last few days with a friend in the two biggest parks brought back a lot of memories.  Not memories with her, for she is a new friend who was visiting from New York, but old friends.  MK has innumerable events that "POP" to mind.  We have a gadzillion even before being allowed to become a cast member, and probably another gadzillion during and after I retired.

EPCOT has another set of memories, especially around this time of year. FOOD AND WINE time offers many concert opportunities, plus mountainous amounts of delicious treats.  I have NEVER been able to eat my way around the countries.  Not even when Marshall and I strolled the pathways, with him finishing most of my samples, could I devour everything. He was truly one of a kind.  Nice looking, intelligent, knowledgeable and very patient with me. I miss him.  I'm sure Emily does even more.

I have spent today MOSTLY resting and trying to make up time spent away up to Ween.  She is very vindictive.  She was "bent out of shape" and wouldn't even acknowledge me when I would try to talk to her.  She was so upset, that she peed on my new duvet and several pillows on the bed.  I had to wash everything last night.  I was afraid it would stain.  I don't think I have been so mad in a very long time.  And, don't try to excuse it - She had just been outside to potty.  It was deliberate! I almost threw her in the sitting room and penned her in.  She was in time-out for about 10 minutes.  She did not like that; suddenly she got very friendly.

Charles will be home tomorrow.  He has been in Atlanta all week.  He is getting home just in time to spend his birthday, Sunday, with his friends.  I'm glad they are here.  Jennifer will be missed as she just had foot surgery and couldn't come, but everyone else will be here.

I remember when he was born - it was homecoming for Tom and he had to leave shortly after Charles was born.  He was so tiny and didn't grow much until he was about 14 or 15.  I am so blessed to have him.  Thank you Father for Charles. He is so awesome.
