Trust me, I consider myself "very" fortunate that Lizbeth and I are usually able to divide up the drudgery pretty effectively. It took a bit of trial and error, and of course there are always those times when one of us has to pinch hit, but ...
The birthday was awesome, thank you! Lizbeth and I made a Mexican meatball soup called albondigas that I'm quite fond of, and my sister and brother-in-law came over to help the rest of us consume it. There were cool gifts like a $50.00 Amazon gift card (which I will naturally spend all on books), another gift card for the Texas Roadhouse restaurant, and so on. :) I used to characterize myself as a person that didn't care much about food, but you wouldn't know it reading that list, huh? LOL
October 8 is also Lizbeth's and my wedding anniversary, and I agreed that she could upgrade our living room ceiling fan to a very fancy light fixture. We celebrated the birthday/anniversary over the previous weekend, but the "wagon wheel"--my name for the light fixture thingy--was actually installed on October 8. LOL
