I don't worry about walking out of a restaurant or anything else if I don't feel comfortable.<br /><br />Hi White Lily, yeah you got that one right. A holiday from the dishes and cooking is always welcome!<br /><br />Hi Amelia, do it once and the second time it becomes easier. You have to remember who you are pleasing. Yourself or some unknown people who won't remember the next day anyway?<br /><br />Hi Mark, oh, I'm so glad somebody else knows the Cheesecake Factory. It really is a great place to eat, isnt' it?<br /><br />Hi Grammy - enjoy your mother's day special dinner. Shrimp is yummy, isn't it?<br /><br />Hi Betsy, thanks for your kind words. I'm glad you came home happy and energized too! I think the ocean does that to us.<br /><br />Hi Bev, that's the sad part. Nobody noticed. Why have a restaurant when the customers are ignored? I really hate that. Hope you found somewhere else to eat.<br />HugsWendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14788733654505792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7954058077044077405.post-26628096396174384592009-05-12T20:53:00.000-04:002009-05-12T20:53:00.000-04:00on a vacation with one of my son's and his family,...on a vacation with one of my son's and his family, we searched forever, and finally found a restaurant with no wait. ah, at last we could eat. However, NO ONE came to wait on us. Staff walking all around us and no service, we finally got up and made a grand exit. I don't think they even noticed as we left....Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691830042960318152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7954058077044077405.post-83785777435082296942009-05-12T19:06:00.000-04:002009-05-12T19:06:00.000-04:00Hi Wendy, I'm SO glad you got to get away for awh...Hi Wendy, I'm SO glad you got to get away for awhile. The job of a caregiver is ROUGH at best. The caregiver (you) needed a good break. AND--it sounds like you got one. <br /><br />I understand why you love the beach so much. I do too. It's SO refreshing and relaxing. Glad you got some good food down thee. It's always hard to 'try' a new restaurant... Some are GREAT and others, not so much!!!!<br /><br />Glad your grandson and family are in a new home. It's gorgeous!!!<br /><br />Sounds like you had a wonderful trip and feel energized again. <br /><br />God Bless You, Wendy.<br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7954058077044077405.post-53283027934634832532009-05-12T17:33:00.000-04:002009-05-12T17:33:00.000-04:00Yummy sea food!

The nearest one is about an hour and a half south from where I live. The place is always packed, last time there was a two hour wait. The food and service both times were fantastic!Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08237538988856751173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7954058077044077405.post-1606702750251422009-05-12T08:17:00.000-04:002009-05-12T08:17:00.000-04:00You have done what I wished I could do and that's ...You have done what I wished I could do and that's just walk out when I was either dissatisfied or kept waiting for a long time!!!<br />I complain but never leave and that's my own fault!!<br /><br />Good for you!ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17380296569508243613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7954058077044077405.post-23219637465897309432009-05-12T00:26:00.000-04:002009-05-12T00:26:00.000-04:00You have slipped into the vacation mode wonderfull...You have slipped into the vacation mode wonderfully.

How perfect to go where you wanted and ate when and where you wanted--though somewhat questionable places ;-) without worrying about pleasing someone else. I am so glad you got up and left when you started feeling uneasy about the place. Impossible to enjoy even a snack when you have that "vibe". I don't know about you, but the older I get, the more I listen to those feelings.Morning Glories in Round Rockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988634441429032483noreply@blogger.com
