FACT: Dropped my Buick off at Stirling Buick Honda body shop for a repair. A shopping cart rolled off the dock at Habitat for Humanity causing a small crater in the right fender. Holy Cow! 3 days to repair and 763.00 dollars. H. H. was great and their insurance took care of making things right. Thanks Habitat for Humanity!
FACT: America's Got Talent was incredible Tuesday night! I wrote down the five acts I felt would go through to the top ten. I also picked a "dark-horse that I thought could derail one of the selections I made.
FACT: Didn't get the Buttermilk Baked Chicken prepared. Oldest daughter Shannon and granddaughter Madilynn came over for dinner along with Irene's close friend Nancy. I lightly salted and peppered then prepared a homemade dry rub for boneless skinless chicken breasts and grilled them to perfection. We had corn of the cob, potato salad, baked beans, lemonade, and Creedence Clear Water Revival along with loads of fun. You guys should have dropped by! (L to R Madilynn, Shannon -the year on the camera is wrong)
FACT: Watched the results show this morning on HULU from Wednesday's results show. I listed 5 selections along with a "dark-horse" (WSDT) that I thought would knock out one choice (Daniel Joseph Baker). Four of my selections were put through and to my disappointment, my dark-horse selection did in fact knock out my final pick. In essence I picked all five acts that were put through this week. (Left - one of the selected acts, POPLYFE)
FACT: Well, I tried and I failed! I lasted 10 days and couldn't go any further today. I tried to break a 44 year habit of coffee. This morning I brewed some fresh ground French Vanilla coffee and oh my gosh! If heaven, fantasies, love, greatness, and pleasure could be reduced to a cup, it would be a cup of hot, strong, and black COFFEE!
FACT: No offense intended at all toward Welcome to My World of Poetry and other British friends but I am glad we won the Revolutionary War and secured Independence. First, I couldn't do the accent and second, I couldn't become a tea drinker. I must have my coffee rather than a spot of tea, even with milk and cookies!
FACT: Had a great time of fellowship, not to mention perfect Braised Hawaiian Pork over rice Saturday night with good friends Josh and Erin Litton. We spent would could be our last night together this side of heaven as they end their ministry in Scappoose, OR Sunday and leave for Chicago on Wednesday. I cooked dinner for us all and we talked about God and His grace and our hopes for the future before we prayed for them and commitment our friends to God and His care.
