Grilled some chicken!!

Today (or yesterday to be exact), I barbecued chicken (leg quarters). They turned out really good! Scrumptious!

Izzy gave me b-day gifts

Izzy presented me with an Amazon gift card, which I promptly used to order a Spaghetti Western DVD from wild east (nest of vipers) . She also got me 4 very nice shirts, brand is Chaps! Thanks Bootsie!!

Blaine has a swollen lymph gland

Poor Blainey has a swollen lymph gland in his neck, just below his right ear! Poor kid. First he got "hand, foot, and mouth disease", now this! I pray he gets over this soon!! I love him so much!!

Dental visit

I am getting a dental cleaning. They said I needed a couple fillings. This is the first time I've ever gone to the dentist where I wasn't in agony. In the past I would only darken the door of a dental office if I was in excruciating pain.

Turned 46

Well, on July 26th I turned 46. Wow. While I believe age is just a number, I am not ignorant to the fact i am getting older. I will hold on to youth as long as I can. I truly feel no more than 25. We had a nice meal at CBQ out near Retama Park. Dad, John, Sarah, Kristin, Sue, Randy, Izzy, and Blaine was there. Then we went back to John's house for cake, and gifts. I had a great time. On my actual birthday Izzy took me to Luther's old fashioned hamburgers. A great b-day all around!!!

I’m a grill master!

Yesterday I made ribs, brisket, and sausage, and pit beans. Everything turned out good! The fam seemed to like it! Who knows what the next cookout will be!
