Coconut Cream Pie

I had a piece of coconut cream pie tonight. It was delicious. Better than yogurt. (And it was a big piece!)

Moderately busy today. I was home early enough to get quite a few things accomplished. I have a bit more to finish tonight and I will be right on track. It's the 'just a week left' until the Meet and Greet for Hector Uribe. We decided today that the food would be Russ' BBQ with all the fixin's.

I plan things backwards. My calendar starts with Tuesday October 12 from 4-7. That's when the party starts.

Since I can never remember anything...Did I mention that we are having a M&G for Hector? He's a friend of ours who is the  'Democrat for Texas Land Commissioner' candidate. He and his main squeeze, Pamela (Pia) who is a dear friend of ours will be coming down on Monday for the M&G on Tuesday. I, the hostess with the most-ess, have sent out press releases and invitations (hence the stuff I have been working on) and will have my email and phone campaign launched on Wednesday. There may be 20 people here...there may be 200. Who knows...but it will be fun. I'm sure there will be 'film at 11'.

Husband spoke with the VA today...who assured him they would be back in touch with him before the day was out. Guess what!! You guessed it! Nothing! As in 'no phone call'. He will call again tomorrow. He is still wearing his hospital bracelets.

When I talked with Pia today regarding food to serve she said we could just do the cold cuts in case Husband was in the hospital. She didn't want him stressed over this.I told her that he would more than likely be here...and it was a week away. And he had already made the commitment. That's how he is.

He thrives on cooking and planning and is good at it. I know I have mentioned that he has a couple of young men that assist him in everything and they enjoy being part of Husband's team and participating in the festivities. I really appreciate them. But between you and me, if they tell Husband to be in any hospital this week...he will go. I can handle this reception and he needs to take care of this situation ASAP.

They just had somebody eating this massive New York style cheesecake on TV. Doesn't that sound good??

Well...I have a few things to do before I sleep. Busy day tomorrow. Several things to finish up so we can start tiling the floor. Oh happy day...Nite!
