Saturday was spent spending money and stocking up for a special Sunday picnic. We took the easy road and loaded up with sandwich makin's, ham, turkey, roast beef, sandwich rolls, tomatoes, lettuce, mustard, mayo, pickles, chips, dips, and drinks. And don't forget Mom's famous Tater salad and deviled eggs (otherwise known to some of us as doubled eggs ~ go figure).
That was after a morning of yard and house work and then topped off by an hour of worship and praise in the evening.
Sunday morning, 4 am. Coffee, a quick breakfast, watering the yard, and loading the boat. Then the big, job.....lets see if this baby will start up. Long story short, no it did not. Dead battery. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Unload the boat, notify the invitees, wash the boat, take the boat back to the shop where it was serviced less than a month ago,,,,,,
Hmmmm...entertainment value....the card i bought J.....i thought it was a bit odd that the card division was named "mohogany" but didn't "get it" til i looked closer at the picture. back to the store for a new card AND a new cake pan. with a lid even. back home, cake baked, frosted, all in the nick of time to welcome the guest of honor, the 25 yearold J. and you think she's old .......LOL....her daddy is ancient.
so we picnicked in the house, watched the dogs give chase in the living room and just enjoyed each other's company.
30 minutes after they left....the snores set in and we were out like lights.
Doubt we'll get the boat in the water this summer.....the rest of the weekends are booked up tight. Where did the summer go? School starts in two weeks.
life in the fast lane....thats all i can say.
