December 10, 2008 was the first 10th of the month in the countdown to 02.10.2010 (I love that date — might have to have a T-shirt design contest or something).
Yesterday was a BUSY day in that I had to finalize things for the four groups of Children’s Choirs at First Baptist Church, Grapevine. The Preschoolers had a concert and reception. While at the same time, the Grade Schoolers were having a Christmas party and rehearsal. My job…get everything in order, ready to go, and then help as needed. The choir directors were great, and handled the Preschool activities. YEAH! I got to serve Cici’s pizza, cinnamon rolls, and drinks to a group of hungry 1st-6th grade children.
So…before all that flurry of activity hit full force, I decided to enjoy a nice and quick lunch. Credit for this idea goes to Janet Lynn Mitchell of Orange, CA. She’s known to eat a taco a day at Del Taco.
While I don’t have a Del Taco nearby, I do have a Taco Bell (one of my fav’s). Here’s where I went…Taco Bell, Keller, TX.
I couldn't go through the Drive Thru. A lady had bumped the curb and got her car stuck. Now that's a trick.
And here’s what I ordered…3 crunchy taco supremes and a cherry Pepsi.
Now for the most fun of all. Out of yesterday’s suggestion from Janet came the idea of having some contests and prizes along the way. I would have loved to have eaten my tacos with Janet at her Del Taco or have her here to eat with me at Taco Bell in Keller. Since that wasn’t possible, Janet will be receiving a Del Taco gift card. Then when she has a taco, she can think of me (And everyone said, “Awwwwww!”) Stay tuned. Participate when you can, and who knows, you might be the next lucky friend to receive a party prize! Thanks for joining me on this journey to 50! It’s going to be a trip of a lifetime!
Let the countdown begin. I’m planning to hit 50 in style and panache!
For the next 14 months on the 10th of each month, I’m going to do something fun, nice, enjoyable just for me as I prepare to turn 50 on 2/10/2010. Pictures may be posted on this page from each month.
Please mark February 2010 on your calendar for my 50th birthday bash. Not sure when, where, or how I’ll celebrate but I do want you to be a part of it. So gather your frequent flier miles in 2009 and be ready to have a rockin’ good time.
