I have been having a pretty ho-hum month, and its only 5 days old... but something happened this evening that just perked it all up.
#1: Zack comes home tomorrow night, WOO HOO! We don't speak the same language, he speaks 'smart' and I speak fluent 'huh?', but I sure have missed his intellectual conversation. And maybe now someone will appreciate the suppers I cook while they are still hot!
#2: The Tamale Lady has returned, and I actually had money to buy some! Her tamales are a bit expensive at $1.25 each, but oh buddy are they worth it! She sells them on the side of the road, still warm from an Igloo cooler out of the trunk of her car. They are the best, and I love her for it.
#3: GABE CALLED! And he is in a safe location. As usual he sounded great, like he was calling from right next door rather than clear on the other side of the world. He's got a bit of a cough, due no doubt to the change in climate. He had the same thing almost the whole time he was there the last time. Cough and all, it was wonderful to hear his voice.

Whoo hoo...upbeat news to say the least!! Glad Gabe is safe and Zack is coming home! Are the tamales red chili or green corn? We'll be making our holiday batch first week of December...ugh, they are a lot of work! So you passed a background check huh?? Kudos to you!
