I had a great time

  • What's up folks? How was your weekend? Mine was fantastic. Friday I got A LOT of cleaning done for my party. A little in the morning, and later on in the afternoon too. Heavy lifting, sweeping, dusting and mopping. Fun stuff. Amy came over to spend the night before my party, and she also helped.
  • Before I knew it Saturday morning was here. I got up, ate breakfast, went on a 2 mile walk, then went and picked up Kimmie in Lodi with my dad's van. After I got back I had enough time to do last minute cleaning and party prep, then I went and got ice and pizza. Two important party elements. Pretty soon folks started arriving, and I had tons of fun. Davina brought some rum so I had a little bit, but not too much. We did the usual like opening presents and singing happy birthday with the cake. We also did "only at Lisa's party" kinda stuff, like watching Adventures In Babysitting, Howard The Duck, Gumby (Cathy bought it for me on VHS.. LOL), and Gremlins in Espanol (on Telemundo). Oh yes, and we discussed transvestites, the definition of a slag, and how on earth my shirt ended up almost backwards. The festivities didn't end until about 2am, and Kimmie and I didn't get into bed until around 3:30am. We fell asleep watching Fast Times At Ridgemont High in my room.
  • Sunday was interesting. I woke up, showered, helped Kimmie out of bed, and we both had breakfast. Then I went on my walk, and later on I helped her with bathroom duties and all that stuff. I'm sure most of you are aware that Kim has cerebral palsy. It sucks. It takes forever for her to do stuff that only takes us "walkies" minutes or even seconds. I do NOT take my legs and the use of them for granted. Anyway, it took a long time to get ready and leave my house, but we finally did. Big props to TJ for helping out with Kimmie this weekend, by the way. Eventually I got her back home and safely in her house. Later on at home I made dinner, uploaded pics and sorted out my bday loot. It's not even my real birthday yet and I'm already blessed. Anyway, gonna get going now. Gotta call Matt and chat about my/his weekend.
