Forgive me father I have not blogged in 3 days. I was busy those two unblogged day’s but my memory is crap so if I’m lucky I will remember something good form Friday or Saturday. Today is the lords day.
Good news, today we got to sleep in. All the way to 8am. Such a treat. I’m still really tired but I can’t blame it on no sleep.
Marika stayed out last night. She told us she was too tired to drive home. I say too drunk. Potato, potahto. She slept in at a friends.
We slept in but we are leaving for Sonoma at ten. Lunch with the out laws at noon. I have not seen them since they arrived in CA in late October. Maybe it’s about time.
our morning did not include the usual Sunday things like reading the paper over breakfast and coffee. We managed to get cleaned up and dressed and out the door by 10. Stopped for coffee. Hey, good news, I am trying caffeinated coffee here and there to see if I can handle it. Today, I had some. Much better than decaf.
Great news again, no traffic at all the whole drive. Not normal but I am fine with it.
Sonoma was not too crowded. I could tell because we found parking on the plaza 50 feet from where we were going. That’s proof positive. Hank and Beth also had great parking.
I would like to report lunch was incredible. Only it wasn’t. Emily ordered the truffle fries as an appetizer. They were fine. $17 for a large order. Should I feel violated? I do. Food was ok. I’m not over selling it, am I? Beth and Hank paid for lunch, which is great, they are nice, but I still feel a little ripped off.
After lunch we did a little shopping. I still need to finish Emily’s stocking and did had something to pick up that was a secret. It’s for me. I like secrets and not telling anyone what I bought. It’s a solid plan.
We did very little shopping. That’s fine. We transferred a few things to their car, gifts and such. Not sure who they were for. Emily handles that stuff. Once it was done we all headed home.
Again, great drive with little traffic to speak of. We stopped at the outlets in Vacaville, not sure why, but prob Xmas shopping. We went to two furniture stores. I’m confused. Then to Pier One where we bought nothing. Back on the road. All the way to Auburn with no stops.
We did stop for a salad and pizza for dinner. It’s almost 6 and no one wants to make dinner.
Marika was home when we arrived. Lots in the car to unload. Ya, I know I said not much purchased but we did pick up a lot from the in laws.
Our dinner was better than lunch. Sad. The remainder of the evening Emily wrapped gifts, I did dishes and laundry. I normal Sunday. Marika went out with a friend to a local bar. The only one open late on Sunday in Auburn. Good call.
We got finished up and went to bed. I changed the sheets. See, I am good for something.
