My SIL and nephew have put my brother's Mustang he lovingly restored up for $ale. My heart is bleeding.
Mom and I spent the day together - went to Burlington, NC. It was a beautiful day, kinda hot, but the humidity was reasonable and the clouds were big, white, and fluffy. We treated ourselves to lunch at a tea room called Tea For Two, an ultra feminine place where we felt pampered which was just what the doctor ordered.
There is a gift shop next door so we decided to browse for awhile and mom bought herself a couple of things. I didn't see anything that sparked my buying gene. Close, but no cigar.
Since Alamance Crossing was nearby, we headed there to browse a few shops - most of our time was spent in Hobby Lobby. Walking in is the easy part. Walking out without buying a buggyful of goodies is the challenge. Bought a few little things I needed to complete a few projects. And I completed three projects when I got home!!! Love it when projects are completed.
We weren't hungry but still weren't ready to head home so we ordered a light dinner at Mimi's Cafe. Nice place to eat and the wait staff were very nice.
Well, I survived this giant day of memories. I can now put this day to rest as well as my head on a pillow soon. I think next year's anniversary of Wayne's death will be easier. He wouldn't want me to mope around but would prefer I found something fun to do. So, that's what I plan. But thanks, Wayne, for being my big brother for 64 years. You will be remembered fondly. Save me a seat!
