Tomorrow — April 16 — our 51st wedding anniversary!

Last year was the “BIG” FIVE O — and we celebrated in Kauai with Jackie Sue and Gregg. Great memories from that trip and added to the other three times we have visited.

This year — tomorrow — we’re back to “reality.” Terry’s been asked to serve as auctioneer at his local Clock Guild in the morning until 1:00ish. Knowing how these clock buddies like to talk and visit — I’m sure he will not head toward home right away. While he’s away, my mission is to drive our Tundra to a local drop-off site for hazardous waste materials (like paints). It’s a free thing tomorrow only and pretty close by our house. After sleeping late (after all, I am a “Gown Queen”), I’ll make that drive and then come home to await my “Prince.”

Plans? Uh, not making any as of now. Frankly, today’s the first day I’ve even felt like moving very far from the recliner. Bronchitis was the diagnosis on April 6 and since a viral infection, just have to wait it out. Bad stuff–flu like aches and symptoms! Good part was a loss of appetite and weigh about 7 lbs. less than end of March.

So, we will probably stay home and have steak on the grill — Terry’s are better here than ones at $$$$ places. We both are still slow movers after our two weeks at Cole’s Antique Show — amazing how we forgot how much work that takes to set up, keep booth interesting and inviting, sell, sell, sell, and take down what’s left. There are soooo many vendors at this venue, and it is a shopper’s paradise! We had a good show, but we look forward to next spring and to making a few booth changes to bring in more buyers (not just shoppers).
