Adult only lunch

Today Airen went to hab/respite. I mentioned to Ms. W that Doug was off and that I thought we were going to try to grab lunch today. Our wonderful provider offered to watch Mara while we (DOUG & I) got to enjoy a meal with NO KIDS!! I was a little hesitant at first as there were her kids plus my two---5 kids total. So at 12:30 I dropped Mara off with Ms. W and the kids were so excited to see her. Mara went to Ms. W with no problems and I walked out the door not to look back. Doug and I headed to Harrah's casino down the road. We had a buy 1 get 1 free coupon for their Harvest Buffet. Can't beat a lunch for two costing $9.99!! That's my kind of deal!! Doug and I enjoyed the people watching. All the little old ladies coming in with their special necklaces and needing to sit at the special table was fun. You see all types at the casino and it is fun. I tried to get Doug to go play $6.00 at the slots but he said no way. $6.00 would have been gone in under 5 minutes but he's a poop and doesn't like casinos. Has no interest at all. I'm not big on gambling either but just a few minutes would have been fun. We went and got the kids around 2 pm and Mara did just fine. She had a blast playing with her brother and the other kids and they had fun with her. I am so thankful to Ms. W for letting Doug and I enjoy an adult only meal!!!!
