AFTER CRAP

Yes, I am back home now, but I thought the first thing I should do is catch up on what I did after CRAP. 
 

I spent the week after CRAP at Rita’s.  Bob went out of town and Rita and I just sort of had fun.  She had to work Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday so I went to Jungle Jim’s (had to get my wine), Books-A-Million (can’t be in that area without stopping there), and Wal Mart to buy some new shorts.  We also ate at O’Charlie’s and just goofed off.  On Thursday we went downtown and walked along the river and checked out the flowers.  We also sat on the swings and watched the river go by.  Walked up to the Great American Ballpark and went to the restaurant/bar across the street.  There we sat outside, had a drink and watched the river go by.  We then drove up to Washington Park to see how they fixed it up.  Then it was on to the Horseshoe Casino.  I broke even, Rita lost a few dollars.  We had supper at Margaritaville.  They have the best frozen margaritas I have ever drank.  We then had a Cheeseburger in Paradise without the cheese J.  Then headed for home.  Bob came home Thursday night so Friday we toured the Loveland Castle and had supper at a restaurant in Loveland.  We then headed home.
 

Saturday morning I left Rita and Bob’s and headed for Brian’s house.  Spent the weekend with Brian and his family.  Had a really good time.  Andy seems to have calmed down a bit.  He doesn’t bark nearly as much and was friendly with me.  Precious is just precious.  She is very loving and doing much better.  Sunday I was pooped and spent most of the day resting on the couch.  Sunday night I went to Jana and Dave’s.    


While at Jana and Dave’s we visited with Mom most every day.  Did some shopping.  Went to Ollie’s and Half Price Books.  Spent a day with Ronnie and Tom.  We did some research on finding guys and gals we graduated with from the eighth grade.  I am in the process of writing letters to those we “think” we found.  We went to dinner at The Manor House with Jana’s neighbor, Ed and his family.  It was very good.  Sunday Mom spent the day with us at Jana’s house.  Tuesday we took Brian and his family to supper at Frisch’s.  Wednesday I went to supper with the gals from Green Township, and had a great time.  It’s always good to see them.  Thursday I had an appointment at 5th 3rd.  Friday I met Gail at Ron’s Roost.  Our conversation just seems to pick up where we left off the last time we were together.  Saturday morning I headed for home.  Spent the night in Franklin, TN, at the usual place.  Sunday I arrived home early afternoon. 
 

It was a short and busy trip, but I had a great time like always.
