Priorities, right?<\/p>\n<p>I managed to get cleaned up by 10:30 am and went to my oral surgeon, who removed some stitches he put on a couple of weeks ago for my implants!\u00a0 Did they say hello to me when I arrived; was I greeted with smiles? No, they all asked, &#8220;Where is Dr. Mary?&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>On the way home, I stopped at Taco Mesa on Chapman and surprised Mary with a breakfast burrito, and I got two hard-shelled tacos.<\/p>\n<p>We had a delightful lunch! Who knew that a chicken taco could make you feel like royalty? Between the chicken dancing with the avocado and the salsa doing a conga line, I half-expected a parade to break out. I think I even saw the pickle wink at me!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_86182\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86182\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-86182\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025-02-04-004-650x488.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025-02-04-004-650x488.jpg 650w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025-02-04-004-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025-02-04-004-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2025-02-04-004.jpg 1360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-86182\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Delicious!!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After lunch, I headed to Trader Joe&#8217;s to get three cases of Three Buck Chuck!\u00a0 While there, some other goodies jumped into my cart, and I hid them in the freezer.\u00a0 I managed to sneak in a couple of MAry&#8217;s favorites that I will surprise her with later in the week!<\/p>\n<p>It was dinner time, and the chef jumped into the kitchen and fixed a spinach salad, salmon, freshly baked bread, and some of Diann&#8217;s soup!
