We Gave Up and Went to Breakfast (Eventually)

[toosuto]

Sara and Rona were up shortly after me this morning. We thought we'd go to Knight's Diner (closed), Dolly's (closed) and Frank's Diner (closed). We were also going to swing by Fred Meyer to do some shopping for Rona (she needs more pants) and a some odds and ends (Thistle needs a good shampoo as she's too fat to clean herself now and reeks of stale urine) they were closed too. At this point it was nearly six so we headed back to Dolly's. Tracy, the Best Waitress Ever™ was there and was ecstatic to see us. We got hugs and then she poured my hot chocolate (as always). A Denver omelette, a serving of hash browns, some pancakes, a sausage patty and an English muffin later and we felt much better. It's nice to be the permanent regular no matter how long you've been gone.

Welcome back! I'm glad the travel was uneventful. I shudder to think about how my kiddo would respond to all the changes - Joshua likes life to be predictable.

I will be in Spokane sometime next spring and I will be SURE to make time for a visit. I wish I could say I'd be in the area sooner, but I don't think there will be much chance of that. Joshua starts Kindergarten on Tuesday, so we can no longer just decide to take off for a week, and we'll be staying in Vancouver for Christmas.

Say hi to your folks for me!

Thanks! I am still amazed at how well Rona coped with it all. She's still, overall, better adjusted to being here. Stupid elasticity of youth. Damn kids: Get off my lawn!

I hope Joshua has a good time on Tuesday, and it'd be great to see you in the spring assuming we're still here ((the probability is high).
