The Princess and The Left Out

Today I got a visit from the princess.


She's been battling a nasty cold lately but is feeling better today.


I tell her, say I love Grammy...  and she does.  Gary says I'm brainwashing her.  This may be true.  But I think she genuinely loves me.

Or maybe it's my iPhone she loves....


And how was your day Gracie?

How was my day?  Let me see...  thanks to the intercom I pretty much know what goes on over in that office of yours during the day when you leave me home alone.   I have a sneaking suspicion that the cookie carrier had treats for me that were never delivered.  That's how my day was.  #AllYourFaultMom

A couple of weeks ago we were invited to The Chamber of Commerce's 'After Hours' where other local businesses get together and have good eats, win some prizes, and mingle.  It turned out to be pretty big, with around 400 attendees...   
It was a good thing it was held at Rocky Gap Casino Resort this month.  They needed the space!

So anyway...  while there we were each handed a coupon for a free dinner at the Lakeside Restaurant there for Wednesday nights only with an expiration date of February 12, so we had to make sure we got in by then.

And so... 

 Tonight we got in the car and headed down that way.  I called on the way, to see if we needed to have a reservation...  and guess what?  They aren't even opened!  So when do you suppose you will be opening, I asked.  Not sure... but sometime in February was their answer.  
So I'm guessing they gave the coupons out to generate business for the casino.  They probably figure that once a person is there and finds out the restaurant is not open they will at least gamble.  

Hmmmmm..

Glad I called first. 

So we ended up eating chinese.

But at least I did not have to cook.


Gracie,  your turn.

Dog food and another lonely night home alone.


Oh...  and a fortune cookie.

***YAWN***

When the dreary, bitter cold days of winter settle in and things are a little slow....

There's nothing like a visit from our Siemens rep. to bring some life to into our doldrums.

Dinner with Brian brought lots of laughs!  

And we even talked about business...  

a little...    


How's it going for you Gracie?

Well.  I eat.  I sleep.  I eat again.  Then I take a drink and sleep again.  **YAWN**  Let's see...  eenie meenie minie moe...  which of you toys can break this bored streak I'm having?


Lookin' for some fun, but Y'all are looking lame.  


So I think I'll just lay down a while....
