From The Past: May 10, 2007

Tuesday afternoon I visited with an old friend who is in town for a short visit. I hadn’t seen her in ten years. She looked great and her two children were adorable. It was so nice to get to talk with someone who grew up with me especially since we know the same people.

This morning Kevin got an early birthday present from my parents:

We desperately needed patio furniture! You would think after living here eleven years we would own some, but we didn’t. In fact, the only thing we have is a picnic table (which they also purchased). It’s amazing how expensive that stuff is!

This afternoon, I met my neighbor for lunch. We went to Arby’s and I ordered my first Kid’s Meal in my adult life. I had the Market Fresh mini turkey and cheese sandwich and a fruit cup. It was just enough food for lunch and was also delicious. It’s nice to know that I can still eat at fast food places and have a choice of healthy, low calorie meals to choose from. As long as I know in advance where I’ll be dining, I can look everything up on the Internet beforehand for the calorie count.
