I finished off the tiling of the bathroom today. Sometimes I marvel at the level of excitement and adventure in my life. Plus, I figured out how to cut trim to go around the bathroom on top of the tile because I didn’t want to take all the trim off to tile. Being lazy one end makes as much work on the other end.
Halloween party planning is in full swing. J-Man has planned the entire thing, including making a list of everything we needed. I was then instructed where we needed to go to get those things now. So, we had a little retail adventure this afternoon. Then I was starved, so we had dinner at a place without a line, which translates to: “So-So Restaurant.” Never order wine in a restaurant like this. The choices were $4.50 glasses of wine you can buy a bottle of at the Safeway for $3.00. But, I raised my brow in anticipation when I saw they touted domestic and imported beers: Bud, Bud Light, and Sam Adams. Not sure if Boston or St. Louis is considered “foreign.” I ordered the steak and lobster. The lobster tail was the size of my thumb and the lobster meat was all of three small, yet mmm-mmmm-sinewy bites. I explained to the kids I wasn’t disappointed, because I really don’t expect much of a place like that. The company was stellar.
