What a day!!!!

Can we say cold?  It was below 0 this morning at 8 a.m.  Way too cold for me.  David and I went to Lewis Co.  He went to help his sister-in-law put in an oven.  I went to go visit my mom and go shopping with her in Maysville.  Mom and I ate at Applebee’s for lunch.  We went to Dollar Tree and JC Penny.  We had a good visit.  I came back with a new sweater and a couple of books.  Unfortunately, our good visit was interrupted with the phone call you dread getting.  Jordon had wrecked his truck.  He just bought his truck about a week and half ago.  He hit a patch of ice and landed upside down in a creek.  Looking at the truck and the place he landed, I am very thankful he walked away with a cut on his hand.  He truly had a guardian angel watching over him.

Now let's talk about Applebee’s.  What is wrong with Applebee’s?  Mom and I went in and had to wait.  I don't mind waiting, but I easily counted 8 empty tables.  There were three employees seating people, and they seemed disorganized and not sure what they were doing.  When our name was finally called, the hostess whispered our name.  I mean whisper very, very quietly.  If I had not been watching her, we would not have known she had called her name.  Overall, our meal was average at best.  Our appetizer chips were super salty.  My main entree was warm and and the red sauce too spicy.  Kudos to the iced tea!!!  I had Provolone Stuffed Meatballs with Fettuccine and mom had the Oriental Chicken salad. 

We took Josh to Mt. Sterling's Applebee’s on Jan. 1.  Again, I will have to say the iced tea was good, but our meal was average at best.  Nothing to brag about.  I will think twice before going to Applebee’s again. 

Blessing for the day - Jordon is safe and unharmed.
