My mom is out here for a few days so I could try and help her calm her nerves. B#2 is now living in the area again and decided he was going to clean out a lot of my mom’s things. I don’t want to go on about Sunday, which was suppose to be my first ‘fun’ flea marketing day, but I told her to pack her bag and head home with me. Tonight we had mom come along for our anniversary dinner. She’s been drooling (sounded like it anyway) every time she saw the blasted Red Lobster commercial. I ordered a Pina Colada (Bri took a silly photo of me, but the camera is in the van) and mom and I ordered ‘Lobster in Paradise’ meal. We got a lobster tail, 5 coconut shrimp and a baked potato (along with salad and their famous biscuits). Bri ordered New Orleans style Mahi-mahi and had to bring some home. Mom’s fork was really flying, so that was the best present I could have gotten, to see her enjoying her food. She came home and said she was going to lay on Sean’s bed and read. Last time I looked, she was out like a light. Someone her age deserves the best treatment and she wasn’t getting that.
As gifts, I got a few pieces of jewelry that I picked out, both silver. One is a ring with a few random faux pearls and rhinestones. The earrings are etched glass ball danglers. Bri also surprised me with a bouquet featuring red roses. I’m really zonked tonight. I won’t be up too much longer.
And I thought this was cool: Senator Clinton was stomping in Drexel Hill, PA on Sunday where Bri and I first lived as a married couple! There are some really close-ups of her in this set! Here’s some more info on the day.
Speaking of the election, Sean got his absentee ballot and deliberated for 15 minutes and told me who he voted for. I was happy.

So sorry that things are not going smoothly with your other brother. But how lucky your mom is to have you!!!
Happy Anniversary!
That meal sounds delicious!
I love the red lobster biscuits. I have a knock off recipe that is very good. It’s made with biscuit.
