Up, up and away in my little balloon was what ran through my mind as I caught my reflection in the mirror this morning. I was up and dressed when I looked into the mirror. The fuzzy view I caught, being fuzzed by the late night out and my normal twisted mind, had my blue t-shirt that covered my upper rounded torso looking a lot like a big blue balloon. So there you go and now you know.
Our friend Dave B. and his friend from Wisconsin came for a visit and took us out to eat, I mean really eat! We went to Michael's Steak Chalet in Osage Beach. Studying the menu with it's huge pricey, pricey selections had my mind blinking off and on, more off than on, till Dave reassured me again that the fine diner was on him so I was finally able to take the first step and order. Tho, I ordered with my eyes closed I opened them wide to eat. What a big chunk of meat the regular cut char-broiled strip steak was! I cannot believe I could not eat the whole thing.... Anyway, we brought the leftovers home and I think it may take three meals to finish them off. Thinking about it brings the typical scrunched up smile to my face. It was good things like that over the years that contributed greatly to some of the happy wrinkles of my face as some also contributed to the full roundness of my torso.
All the excitement of the visit, the eating and visiting kept us all up pretty late, at least four hours after my bed time, but it was worth every minute and hasn't interfered with my morning at all.
A little time on the Tritoon with a few cooling dips in the water is a sure plan for today.
