Lisa and I opened our home again on Sunday for our local friends and people at Lisa's work who were still without power or waiting for their fridge/freezers to rev back up before restocking. We made a gigantic feast for everyone to enjoy and send everyone home with lots of food. We fed a couple of people yesterday. Most everyone has their power restored. Today we made the last of our picnic lunches and dinners. Lisa delivered. After spending 5 days in the kitchen cooking, baking, and prepping meals, I opened a bottle of wine to celebrate.
We had a few things to celebrate.
Everyone has their power restored.
Lisa is on staycation this week and we can finally focus on a couple of big projects that we want to get done by the end of this weekend.
And...
Tomorrow is Lisa's birthday.
Unfortunately because of COVID-19, we can't go where we normally go once a year to celebrate.
It's a secret where we go.
However...
I'm making her a cake and a special birthday dinner. We're going to start the biggest of our 2 projects and we're very excited about this.
I asked Lisa if she was disappointed that we couldn't go to our once-a-year secret destination.
"Nope. We bought a house this year. I have the week off. I get to spend time with you and the kids. That's good enough for me."
Birthday. Bliss.
