Our neighbors across the way-- two women with a 45 foot motorhome came over for cocktails. We had helped them back into their site and John has been getting them a Wall Street Journal every morning when he picks up my newspapers. They were a really interesting couple--both ex-teachers- they left academia -Kathy became an investment counselor (and from the sounds of it, decided at that point to get divorced and try the "other side"). Paula was one of her clients. They got together and started doing "network marketing"....from the sounds of it, it's a bit like doing small "Avon" or "Mary Kay" businesses. They done a number of them and obviously have done quite well. Their new venture is with probiotics chocolate. (They brought some over last night- and I'm blaming my current hungover state on the chocolates--not the over consumption of wine with no dinner!...it's been so long since I've felt so bad....must be a reaction to the probiotics. They were really good--and there's a few left. I'm dying to try them, but afraid of the reaction). Their web site -"successbychocolate.com. We got the whole pitch--supposedly good for blood pressure, diabetics....
Feeling like death warmed over, I still managed to get to my 11 AM haircut with Serena. Cute little thing who convinced me to take a few inches off--can't believe how short my hair is- she just kept cutting and cutting! I guess it's a good length for this hot weather---and as John said, "You're only 8 weeks from a good haircut". Oh well.....John just got his hair cut, mine is short now- and Chloe's turn is tomorrow....
We met the Homan’s on Friday at the Garage Bar on the West Side. What a great place—dog friendly, good food and cheap drinks!
