I already missed a day - 24 hours just isn't enough time.
Today was my Grandma Joy's 79th birthday. We sat in her backyard in Crystal with the family and ate a lovely dinner on a borrowed picnic table. The best story that Grandma told tonight was about her first experience drinking an alcoholic beverage. She didn't start drinking until she was in her mid-thirties when she was on a trip to Russia. The water there was undrinkable so they had to brush their teeth with BEER! Think about that for a second. Minty fresh toothpaste and rinsing with beer. It's a wonder she kept it up. I also brought my knitting project along to show her and discovered that we had picked the exact same yarn and were both knitting a scarf...
Looking forward to a day off tomorrow with my girls and blueberry iced tea at midnight.

Reminds me of a very cold morning in the dorms, when my roommate and I ran out of hot chocolate so we decided to try hot beer. NOT recommended.
