Well… I headed over the bridge last Sunday. I went to the cemetery and decorated for Christmas. He always enjoyed Christmas. Nanny and Pop are nearby and they get decorated, too. The weather was very pleasant this year so I stayed for a while. I talked to them and had a good cry. Every year, I am drawn here and I leave feeling so much better. I don’t know exactly how to put it. It is something I have to do. I drove back to Reisterstown through the country. Some of those roads, I hadn’t been on in years. It was pretty dark by the time I got back.
Monday was ‘Girls Day Out’. It was decided to meet at the Corner Stable in Cockeysville due to its central location. This was fine with me since there’s a JoAnn’s there. I was not very happy with the cramped space and had the waitress remove the useless crap from the table before I “accidentally” knocked it on to the floor. There was very little of interest on the menu. I settled on a shrimp salad sandwich with cole slaw. The menu mentioned Old Bay, but I think they just showed it the can. It was bland with entirely too much mayonnaise. The lettuce was too tough to eat. That said, I really did have a good time. It is always great seeing everyone.
