Before the party happened


On Friday early in the day my high maintenance bride wanted me to ride over to Roanoke Rapids with her to run an errand or two and to get her toe nails done. So there I was sitting in the care in front of U.S. Nails for what seemed like forever.  I did manage to get a nap or three while sitting there. 
Now Linda will want you to know that she encouraged me to have my toe nails done as well but I chose not to indulge. 


Thought you needed to see a picture of their window advertising as well. After that exciting adventure we spent a while in the supermarket shopping for her mother and then delivered her groceries we let Soffie relieve herself and headed to Rocky Mount for some shopping at Sam's Club for paper products that we buy in bulk to save.


Of course no trip to Rocky Mount is worth it without a visit to my Aunt Katie. We had a long visit with her and she was doing fantastic and looked great as you can see. "104" will be here before we know it.



Polly was taking a siesta so this is the pose you will have to have for this trip.  It was a great afternoon as any time spent at Aunt Katie's is always rewarding and that's the rest of the story.

  1. My goodness, Aunt Katie certainly does look great, Odie! I'm also happy to see a picture of Polly because you know that I've been wondering and asking about her. I hope you enjoy your first full week of freedom, good buddy! Find that school bus!

  3. I've never had a pedicure either, Odie. I'm too cheap to pay for that! Aunt Katie looks wonderful and Polly looks comfortable. God bless, sweet friend.

  4. Aunt Katie is truly amazing! I wish I could meet with her and just listen to her. I'm sure she's fascinating. Good for you!

  5. Aunt Katie is becoming legendary, Odie. She really doesn't look as old as she is. I've seen 80 year olds who look much older than she does. I wish we knew her secret to longevity and staying in such good shape. Obviously her active mind has a lot to do with it, too. She really is amazing! The stories she must have to tell would keep me enrapt. Just knowing all she has lived through and experienced in her long lifetime. Hope you have a wonderful week playing!
