Out and about

On Friday, I left my house (oh, yes I did!) and went to see my daughter.
We went to the Olive Garden for a late lunch.  We both love Olive Garden. We ordered the soup, salad, and bread sticks-as usual.  We shared the black tie mousse cake for dessert.  It was good, but rich.

After lunch, she made me go to the mall!  I'm not a fan of malls, but anything for my girl!

What???  This dummy had no undies on!!!

Then she took me to a lake. 

We walked around and saw pretty things like:  Goosies!

Duck(s)!

Dragonflies!

Butterflies!
It was hot as hades out, but anything for my girl! I tried my best not to complain about the heat, but I was starting to feel dehydrated.  She got mad at me when we got back in the car and I wanted the windows down and the air conditioner on at the same time.  She doesn't understand-Momma's getting old and can't take the heat!  Then, she was irritated that I couldn't hear half of what she was saying in the car, you know-what with the windows down and the stereo blasting. She got over it very quickly, though, as she does these days, which was nice! Oh, my-we seem to speak different languages at this stage in our lives, but she'll always be my baby girl!

Have a great day everybody!
