Thursday, February 6

Our granddaughter Lydia and I have been trying to get together for affogatos at Fox Creamery for several weeks. (The iced drink is also hers.)

Each time she had a day off from work and was in the mood for an affogato, it didn’t suit me. Finally, I said to her, “Let’s set a date during my birthday week, because I need something special to do on Thursday.”

I told her that she was looking pretty – especially with the good lighting from the window – and it was time to have an updated picture for our refrigerator.

Thanks, Lydia, for taking time for Grandma – and for paying my bill as a birthday gift.

I love hanging out with you.
