Chironto

I woke up Saturday morning with the excited feeling of a kid on Christmas day. But Santa Claus was not coming to town, MANDY was! Knowing that their flight was coming in early, I *tried* my best to let them sleep in, while i ran some errands in the morning.

First I took Xhosa to the doggie spa to get groomed and her dreadlocks taken care of. Then I made lunch for Sharl before his basketball practice. Then I vacuumed and then I did 1, 2, and 3 loads of laundry constantly negotiating with the clock for a decent hour to call. Only 11am!?! Why oh WHY can't I sleep in past 8am?

I felt like I was awake all day.

Anyway, when she finally called, I gave her the most excited happy birthday greeting. We spent the afternoon as tough she had never left...eating pizza, watching some guilty pleasure tv and talking our ears off. Steve was even up for some private dance lessons! I'm so excited that they've started salsa-ing!

For the evening bday festivities we went to the hoity toity Muzik. Tres Miami-chic full of models and high rollers or as Sharl would call them, fakes and posers. I liked that I got to get dolled up and to give this dress in my closet a second wear. Plus it's a guaranteed great time with my specials. 5 expensive cocktails later, my sorry feet gave out and the club got rough so we left. All in all a great day!







    Sunday the four of us plus mandy's co-worker did lunch and then we said goodbye at the airport.
