June 4, 2011
Busy couple of days.  Yesterday, in the rain, thunder and lightning decided to go dishwasher shopping.  Went to several stores and came home to make a decision.  Decided on the Maytag JetClean in white from Home Depot.  Called HD and ordered it.  Won't be here until June 23 and they will delivering it here and taking away my old one (for a $20 charge) but since I've waited this long that's not a big deal.  My old one still works, just not that well.  After 17 1/2 years my old Maytag is ready to retire, sure doesn't owe me anything.
Couldn't believe just how tired this shopping made me, had to have a lay down before getting ready for the D-Day dinner at the Legion in Niagara Falls.
Ken wants to drop off the wagon we got years ago (for when the grandkids came) to Abra and Tyler for Haydon so we do this also before dinner.  
We arrive at the Legion on Spring St about 6:35 and are so pleased to see Bill & Sue Hems' truck in the parking lot.  We didn't know for sure if they were going to get here this year.  It's always great to get together with everyone at this yearly event.  This was the first year at the Legion and it was very nice, dinner was served buffet and was very good (roast beef, etc.) and lots of room also.  Hope we can do it there again next year.
Couldn't get to sleep, Ken was snoring up a storm so I just gave up, got up and stayed up until close to 4:00 am, finally back to bed but Ceejay decided to want out at 5:30 so was back up then.  Woke up at 7:30 and was up for the day.

This was a beautiful day, sunny and warm.  Ken is working again today (half day only) and I am off to Chippawa for lunch at Betty's.  The annual Disher Family and Friends get together is being held there again this year.  Unlike last year we had a buffet and it was excellent, lots of variety and lots of food.  The service was great also.
This is another day that I look forward to from year to year; don't get much chance to touch base with old friends from my childhood.  Was such a fun time!
Had to fill my car with gas and that was not a fun time.....not used to paying almost $50 to fill my car....ouch!!!!
Well am hoping for a better nights sleep tonight.
