Wow, what a weekend......
Sunday included a lovely lunch for the OWC (Officers Wives Club) at the Ranch House on Camp Pendleton. This was a wonderful opportunity for us to view the historic Ranch House and to meet members of the EWC (Enlisted Wives Club). For some insane reason I allowed my friend Barb to talk me into becoming the Fundraiser this year.....actually she walked up and down our street and convinced nearly everyone to take a position......might as well call it the MRR Gang!!!!
The meeting itself was wonderful, sitting on the porch overlooking the gardens, which includes a bougainvillea that has it's own historic marker....... Lunch was prepared and presented by the General, don't see that every day!
It was a very pleasant way for the two Club's to come together to discuss 2007/8 activities. Not sure we accomplished a lot but we at least know where we all stand.........
PEE!!!
I am not sure if there is some funky Lunar Cycle at present but my daughter wet her bed again (she will kill me if this blog is still around in a few years) and therefore ended up in my bed from 11:30 on. This would be ok if she slept, however, she not only talks in her sleep but plays out her dreams, including beating up bad guys............move over mummy! So again a sleepless night as her bed was stripped and in the washing machine, mine was a war zone and the couch, well if you read the previous Blogs, you would remember that I am waiting to get that cleaned as well.
RESTAURANT SNOBBERY
Ok, I am not American but I guess there is very much a list of restaurants that folks see as sub standard........not appropriate to be seen in, and I guess that poor old Denny's is one of them. A friend and I took the kids after Gym for a quick dinner (we didn't need to cook yet another meal on our own) at the aforementioned restaurant (food distribution center) and on the way home ran into a neighbour who advised us that she "would not eat at Denny's" as she was a "Restaurant Snob". It made me wonder, what is the proper restaurant hierarchy to follow when one lives in Snobby Acres(nickname for our housing area) am I lowering my standards or am I being realistic and taking a quick respite when I have the opportunity? This is a perplexing question and one that requires deep meditative thought........................do I now hang my head in shame for eating at such an establishment or hold my head high as I break the social norms....do I care?
