Saturday night Kathy invited me down for dinner and a movie. Buddy Niblock, an old RCMP buddy of Bill's, daughter and husband were there too. They are a couple that will be going to Mexico with us and a load of fun.
We had a delicious dinner as usual. She makes the tastiest meals. My meals are such ordinary farmhouse dinners. Hers are tasty and different. Jackie brought the salad...and it was yummy.
Then we watched the movie Joy. Its a true story about the woman who invented the self ringing mop and became, after much silly strife, a millionaire. It was an interesting, a little slow, a bit goofy, movie, one I am glad I saw. And for you regular readers, do you remember the post I made last summer about that stupid mop I bought that pissed me off so bad I pitched it out over the back deck into the back yard...where it stayed until the gardeners rang my door bell and said "Are you aware that you have things in your back yard? There is a mop. And there is a toaster. And a Gore Vidal book?" Well, guess what mop that was? Hahaha!!
Sunday I cleaned the house (what little needed doing) and did laundry and Monte, Anton, Levi, Peter, and Marissa (not the one we all know) arrived with steaks and bread and a lot of energy. I started cooking and Monte sat down at the piano and played a little Bob Dylan for us! After being away from him for a while, its amazing how one forgets how huge and tall and loud his presence is!
So dinner over, music being played and a ton of conversation, we finally all went to bed around two in the morning. This morning I made a huge veggie omelet and sat around with Anton and Peter conversing and listening to more music. Other than Marissa they all stayed the night. It was nice having the house full of people. I think some of them will be back tonight. Right now they are all off doing different things.
Now I shall go and clean the kitchen and then wash my hair. Told you my life is mundane....just saying. TTYL
