Wishing everyone a very happy and joyous Easter. Hope you are spending it with a good friend or family. No mattter where you are hope your day is a great one. Mike and I are having his two 80 plus aunts and an elderly uncle over. I have barbecued ribs cooking in the crockpot, asparagus in a pot ready to be cooked, baked beans in a casserole in the microwave waiting to be heated, cabbage salad in the fridge and pineapple upsidedown cake with homemade whipped cream for dessert. Not sure what the relatives are bringing if anything, but no big deal if they come empty-handed. It is a time for sharing with others and that is what we are doing. it is nice to have the house with enough space that we can have company over to enjoy a meal. The aunts live alone and the uncle is in a nursing home so it's a treat for all of them to be here. We are also blessed to have our retired guide dogs here until the 20th. Since they will be twelve-years-old this May and June it could be there last visit. Tuesday my current guide dog goes to the vet for esxtensive x-rays of her elbow, back, shoulder and hips to see why she can't curve her back, put pressure on her right front leg and is having other physical problems. If it is able to be helped with medication I'll go that route. However it looks like it is more serious and she'll have to take an early retirement. Not sure what I'll do with her if that is the case, but will cross that road if and when it happens. Anyway, we are just going to enjoy the day with the family and with our four-legged friends. Hope you all will be doing the same. Alberta and Miss Ivy
