Dan felt that the burritos needed more cheese.  He felt that the 2 jalapeno peppers was to much.

We got back from our trip all in one piece.  We had a nice time and I am glad that I went.  We got to see our friend Darryl and his wife.  What a nice lady.  She seems like a sween person.

I don't think that I will be traveling with Dan's mon any more.  She has a nasty habit of talking about people and what she says is not very nice.  I got some birthday money from Dan's Dad and I think that I will buy some books and cd's with it. 

I am hpoing to get the garage dorres fixed this next month and I am hoping to get my piano tuned and hopefully sell it.
