Returning to a (Somewhat?) Normal Life

 Saturday, we went over to the Middle Son's apartment for the baby shower for his girlfriend. They played some small games (I didn't participate) and had several people stop in. It was a come-and-go affair. We brought over extra water bottles, and provided some eats (chips, a garden tray, some candies). I got to see my Doodad and Widget, and got some more cuddle time with Widget. She really is starting to show some baby chubbiness as she has been gaining some weight. Wife and I left late afternoon, and once we had unloaded at home, I headed down to the VFW, as I had been by there in a few weeks. I didn't stay late, as no one there I really wanted to talk with, and it was the same seven people singing karaoke (which gets boring with their same songs), so I headed towards home and stopped into my regular spot. New bartender was working, instead of one of the girls I prefer, so left there, went to my old stomping grounds, it was dead, so off to home I went.

Sunday we had planned for the Youngest's Bday dinner, since his Sister and family were in town. He wanted Olive Garden, so we went. Oldest Son was able to make it, and I had invited RM And PT to join as well. Service was not up to what I would consider their regular standard. It took too much time to get drink orders, which we went and ordered food at the same time, since we had to wait so long. Another long wait to actually get my drink (iced tea). Refills on my salad seemed to take a long time....in short, everything took much longer than it should have. But I didn't reflect my displeasure in the tip, because all said and done, we were a party of nine....

Very few plans for this week. Monday evening I am headed to the Post as I said I would meet up with a couple other members and hang-out. Tuesday is our general Aux meeting. Saturday, our Riders Chapter is going along with some other groups on a ride, starts in Coolidge, and I am not sure where-all it is going, but should be a most of the day event. I was thinking of riding along (even in my RAV), but not sure it if it will happen - me going that is.

Was watching some of them short reels on the FB tonight, and came across a couple that had to do with the Villains of Disney movies (Maleficent, etc.) and some origin, or "twisted tales" from several authors. I started hunting a few down through my book sites. Think I may check them out and see if they are interesting. Some were marked for more YA, but who knows.

Guess I should go and try to lay down again. I took one of them edibles a couple hours plus ago, but I think it isn't working tonight, due to the amount of food I ate. Maybe it isn't strong enough to fight the body with all that food break-down going on. I dunno.
