Last Wednesday my son invited me to one of the frequent restaurants we use for lunch, H was paying. This of course is a Male attire event for me. My son and I normally lunch together on Thursdays.
Then the mind went into gear. I had not heard from any of the kids about doing anything for Father's day, something was amiss in the air.
I put on my man cloths and arrived early at the restaurant. I sat in my ca listening to music and watching the front entrance. All was qite at the front entrance.
At the appointed hour I went in and looked around for my son. No son so I asked for a seat for two. They sat me in a booth and brought me my glass of water, (a normal thing for me that they knew). Then the staff started moving around four tables. I watched and thought that someone was having a big party.
Then my oldest daughter walked in leading a string of people, my family. She came over to where I was seated, picked up my glass and phone and Said" We want you to sit over here.
My son was carrying a board with arranged cupcakes We had 11 people in attendance. Not one below 14 years old.
There were 5 fathers in the group, a birthday, and an anniversary. (this was a slight negative thing) The cake was a birthday cake.
We ate. My oldest presented the idea that the family needs to get together more often. We discussed it. It was decided on every other month. I asked my Daughter-in-law (the birthday girl) to head up the next event. I wanted a dinner mystery night event.
My odest had to tell that she nad her husband traded in iis !989s Dodge Charger on a new 2019 Dodge 250 super cab truck. (Hummm I bet they buy a camper trailer soon.)
After the lunch I came home alone and took a nape.
