Champagne, Cake & "Quiet Clubbing"

 After the wedding JoAnne had found us a restaurant nearby where we could all have lunch
 They gave us champagne for the table so we could toast the newlyweds

 After lunch everyone went in different directions, Scott, Deidre, Mark & Jeffery headed back home.  Popster, JoAnne, Jess & I went back to JoAnne's to change clothes
Popster was really under the weather so he got a pass to stay home with Peter while the girls headed out for Astoria to go to a party that Josh & Carol were having.
 It was at the Bohemian beer garden where Josh works.  We had to go to Queens which was no easy trip from where we were.  First we hopped back on the water taxi.  Then JoAnne said it was just a couple blocks to the subway.  After we walked for what seemed like forever through the rush hour crowd we finally got to the subway.  Of course we ended up on the wrong platform & had to run up & down stairs to get to the right one.  We made it & had to stand all the way to Astoria!
 Yeah we are finally there & it only took us 2 hours!
After carrying the cake all around NYC for the day they finally got to cut it

At least he didn't smear all over her face
Around ten the dj's came on for Quiet Clubbing.  There were 3 of them, one blue, one red & one green & each one played a different style of music.  You could rent a head set & then are able to switch to whatever you want to hear.  Everyone gets on the dance floor & are dancing to whatever they are hearing.  It's quite bizarre if you are not wearing a headset.  The nice part though is to be able to carry on a conversation without yelling.



We hung out there until around 12:30am & then took an uber back to the ferry.....we were not riding the subway that late at night.
Love

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Happy "13th" Birthday Liza

Today is Liza's 13th birthday(that is 91 in people years). We are just amazed that she not only is still with us, after being told 18 months ago she wouldn't live 6 months but that weather permitting she still walks 2 miles every morning & another 2 in the afternoon! Check out the slide show.......her friend Lucy came over tonight & they each had a donut w/frosting & sprinkles along with ice cream. It was just too funny as neither one of them can see worth a damn but they knew they were getting something good! Lucy had hers gone in 2 bites but Liza went for the ice cream first & then took her time licking off the frosting!

Sewing, weaving & emptying the waterbed

 Monday morning began bright & early as we needed to finish emptying our bedroom.  Mark was dropping LiLi off before 8:00am as she does not have school this week.  We needed to drain the waterbed before we could take it apart.  As usual we were having no luck getting the water to siphon out & even resorted to having LiLi (all 35lbs of her) sitting on it with us!!  It probably took over an hour & who knows how many tries before it worked.  Got the mattress out & discovered the decking was falling apart.....good thing we decided to do this project,,,,I was able to find a local place so we can just replace it & to be safe I also got a new safety liner & heater.  I don't want to be doing this again for a while!  While Popster worked on replacing the baseboard & window trim in those two rooms LiLi & I started working on this doll kit she had gotten for her birthday.  All the pieces needed to be sewn togeth...
