We got to a late start, but Mom and Dad eventually showed up and we headed to Cabot to see the family for my cousin-in-law Bob&#8217;s service. The pastor was late, but a few got up to share stories in the meantime. The whole ordeal didn&#8217;t take very long since there wasn&#8217;t a burial service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we got back home, they dropped me off to change, and then the girls tried to meet us at Pasta Grill for an early Mother&#8217;s Day dinner. They were booked up, so Dad called Cagle&#8217;s Mill and we went there instead. A few people came and went from the bar while we were there, but we were the only group that was really just there for dinner. The food didn&#8217;t seem nearly as good as I remembered, and the prime rib was super salty. Nearly everyone had ordered it, so after some taste testing, the manager knocked 20% off the entire bill for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After dinner, we came back to my house to settle in. It wasn&#8217;t long before Eaddie bailed to spend the night with Maristella. I dropped her off, and then came back home to watch <em>Falcon and Winter Soldier<\/em> with Summer. We finally finished the series, and I can definitely say I wasn&#8217;t expecting to tear up so much. I&#8217;m ready for more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Saturday Night Live<\/em> did nothing for Doge. In fact, after the episode aired, it took a huge dive and broke Robinhood again. It dipped low enough for my buy order to trigger, though for several minutes I thought Robinhood didn&#8217;t even handle that. It quickly bounced back up a bit, and was my first real successful buy in a dip that I&#8217;ve ever had. Now if I could just do that a few dozen more times, I could finally retire on a yacht.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>THAT AIN&#8217;T HOW MONEY WORKS! Money is a golden rock that we dig out of the ground. Then we hope no one kills us before we trade it for pieces of green paper.
