Catch Up Time

Catch up time again.

Last Saturday we drove down to Simi went by Brad and Diane's and saw the remodelling they are doing on the house, then it was lunch time at El Patio. After that we went over to David and Jodi's house where we hung out until leaving for "9 to 5" the musical. We took the subway into L.A. then went to dinner before the play. The play was good but "Wicked" much better, after the play we got to go back stage and see the props and how everything moves around on stage. The fun part was walking back out to the street, where everyone is lined up to see the actors come out and get autographs. We come walking out and they are all looking like "who are these people" too funny. The play now is headed for Broadway for a 2 year run, but what is coming out here now is "Spring Awakening" which Spanky had told us about when we were in New York and we saw it "off Broadway", good musical. Remember if you want tickets to see it, David Jr. can get tickets, probably not free but real close to the stage. For 9 to 5 we were 12 rows back from the stage, great seats.
We drove back Sunday morning because Miss Madison was getting dedicated in there church. Kim had a great dress for her, she was all smiles until Kim took her from Danny and laid her down in her arms, she liked seating up looking at everyone. She is going to be a ham in front of crowds, she had her tongue out and was all smiles, even when the pastor held her.
Monday and Tuesday we were watching Madison from 3:30 to 7pm because Kim was working for Medcor, Danny's employer, giving out flu shots, but Kim was working at the K-Mart warehouse. Kim called while Dave and I were playing pickle ball and wanted us to come over early because her new thing is shopping for bargains on Craig's List, and she had found something she wanted for Miss Madison and needed to pick it up by 2. Dave went with her to pick it up which it is a bouncy chair with all kinds of things to keep Madison entertained. Then on Tuesday she found something else and so did Dave. Our couch in the RV is covered with towels because Valley lays on it so Dave decided to sew a new cover for the couch but we can't remember what happened to our sewing machine since moving so Dave got on line and found a sewing machine to buy. So on Tuesday, at 2 Kim picked up another play thing for Madison then they went and picked up the sewing machine. When Kim left for work Dave went to Joann's and picked out some fabric to make the cover for the couch.
Wednesday, after pickle ball, Dave got started on sewing. Let me tell you the cover came out great, damn this man is talented. In his second life he is going to make a wonderful wife for someone. He loves musicals, sews, cooks, cleans, knows electrical, can build things, repair things, ect. ect.very talented, I'm really lucky.
Thursday was another all day babysitting and yesterday Kim called at 6 and said she was on "stand by" which meant I was on stand by too. She ended up getting called in at 11:30, Dave and I were just going to leave and go shopping, but had to report for duty. I don't like stand by, now I can see why she doesn't like it either, it's hard to plan anything. Kim has talked to her boss about this but she might have to transfer to another department. She is only working 3 days a week and she sure doesn't what to be on stand by on any of those days. When you are on stand by you only make like $2 an hour, that sucks.

I think that has gotten me caught up, new pictures are posted of the dedication and others.
