Rainy Day Blues

I usually love rainy days but today it was most unwelcome. We arrived at Tim & Doreen's new home in the late morning and waited for their household possessions to arrive. They had been house hunting for quite a while and their home sold months ago. Staying with family, T&D had to store their belongings in a POD. It was cool to watch as the POD was delivered and then taken off the truck by a contraption called Podzilla. Tim had recruited some strong boys and the house was filled with furniture and boxes in no time. We took a break to eat the chili I had prepared and I had to leave early.

I stopped by Chase's birthday party. It was in full swing and I slipped out pretty quick. Almost a dozen 9 & 10 year old boys didn't need the presence of a grandmother at the rock & roll party. My daughter and her family were dressed pretty freaky in rock star outfits and reminded me a bit of Spinal Tap. The cake had made it in one piece so my task was complete. I will hopefully get to make another cake for Thursday and spend the evening with Chase.
