i woke up at about 6:30 on the sofa in my mom's house. stiff neck. stiff back.

mark went out to starbucks for coffee, etc.

breakfast

apple fritter
3 small donuts
cappuccino
water

from starbucks. i should have had either the small donuts or the apple fritter.

snack

crackers
water

mark went to get karen at the airport around 11:45. they took longer to come back than mommy expected so she got a bit worried.

after m & k came back, claire and matthew showed up soon after. then scott, glenn, and amanda arrived at about 2:00. muchly was the chatting until we left for dinner at the BBQ restaurant at about 2:30.

early dinner

salad
onion rings
tuna (grilled)
cole slaw
biscuits
iced tea

pretty good.

we stopped at the cemetery to visit daddy's grave on the way back. it was the first time we'd all been there since his funeral which was in 1994.

we had mommy's b-day cake at around 6:30

cake
choc/van ice cream
iced tea

good cake. the richmond/stafford contingent (claire, matthew, scott, amanda, and glenn) headed home shortly after cake. we really only had about 5 hrs with everyone together but it was still very nice.

m & k decided to go to a german restaurant in yorktown in the early evening to see if they could get curry wurst.

snack

weiss-wurst sausage
curry sauce
role
potato chips

really good. i had not had curry wurst since something like 1963. i recognized it immediately when i smelled the sauce. amazing.

every body went to bed around midnight. i slept on the coach again.
