Today's Post
Feb. 28th, 2009 11:14 pmWell, the auction is over. I got the books I wanted -- they didn't sell till almost the very end, so I had to miss out a lot of things that I would have tried for otherwise. Oh well, no biggie.
Much schmoozing w/family and friends. Lyn drove Aunt Lee down for the day, and she (Aunt Lee) headed straight for the action, got right there in the very front with her walker-chair (as opposed to a wheelchair) and "inspected" everything there was to see up close -- and of she couldn't see it, she asked to look at it. XD Love it!! There is a big plus to getting to be almost 99 years old; you can get by with anything you want because people will think you are majorly cool to be able to get around at all. ;) People of "ordinary" age are SOL though. ::snickers::
Afterwards, had supper at Garden Cafe w/Carol, Paul, Paul II, Jim and Cathy.
Maybe I will write more later. Right now I just want to sleep.

So I am happy, though I would have liked to have gotten a few more things. Oh well.
