Today was Elmer's birthday and nothing really special happened but nothing makes you appreciate your husband's birthday more than just being happy that you still have him. I haven't written anything in awhile. Since I last wrote Elmer has gone through radiation for thyroid cancer and finished it. It went really well but he did and still does have a sore throat that makes it really hard to enjoy eating. Because of that I didn't protest too much when he said that instead of going out for his birthday he wants to go help his nephew.
I did however take cookies to Mid-State for everybody in honor of him. There are approx. 150 people working there so I started baking cookies on Monday; a huge batch of monster cookies, then on Tuesday I made a double batch of peanut butter cookies, and on Wednesday Annika and Shae came over and I made a double batch of snicker doodles. They were all pretty much inhaled by the end of first break. Then for lunch I took pulled pork and sides from Pauly's - a local eating place that Elmer enjoys.
After I came home from there I took a little break then went out and mowed the yard. For some reason I got to wondering how many miles I put on the lawn mower when I mow so I used map my run and found that I went 4.25 miles and it took me and 1hour and 20 minutes. Just a little trivia:) I do love mowing the yard. Elmer and I have planted so many things in the years that we have lived here. I do love my flowers and I can look at all of them as I mow. I also picked a bunch of tomatoes. So exciting to have fresh tomatoes! I love them! I'm making grilled burgers for dinner for Emily and me. Burgers, fresh tomatoes, and onions, yummy!
