Has officially kicked in. Wednesday I worked at my friend Francis' house helping her make some headway in her garage so it can become her "storage shed" now for packed boxes and things to donate/sell/give away. It was a gruelling 6 hours in a hot humid 90* garage. God was nice enough to let it rain for a whopping 45 seconds which only made it a steam bath...love his sense of humor! ;) I went home battered, sore, and ready for bed....buuuut bed didnt happen. Instead we packed up the kids and went to the lake...to fish and swim! I am no good at lake fishing...it confuses me, I dont know what kind of fish I am dealing with and it takes a LOT longer to do it. I used hotdog and waited and waited and waited....I had three people staring and waiting for something to happen which only increased my pressure....and then it happened! The bobber went under and I had a fish! a BIG ONE! I reeled and reeled and then it came at me in the water (I was waist deep) and I started walking to shore. It was at LEAST a 3 pound catfish! The kids squeeled with delight and Brian was quite impressed I landed such a whopper. I got some pics, and we set him free. (Even though Brian wanted to eat it). I was excited, but the kids were done and I was forced to go home just when the thrill kicked in.
Yesterday was the first day we did *nothing* all day long. I worked on school stuff with the kids, cleaned, and even took a nap in the afternoon! Brian treated me to enchiladas for dinner and the night ended with me surfing Netflix and him watching a terribly sad movie. (The Road)
This morning I am up, I am sore still, and I am ready for life again. Brian is working in Cumming so he took Christopher to his grandparents house for the day. Me and Laci are meeting Francis and going to the lake this morning to swim, then I am coming home around1:00. I have to finish some laundry and stuff, then tonight I am going to dinner and shopping with my mom for some stuff for her trip to California. I am glad to see her. Its been lonely family wise for me lately. Feels like I dont have a whole lot left, and its finally starting to take its toll on me. I am excited to go laugh and blow off some time with her and I know shopping for her is always a blast! (She is as easy to dress as Barbie!)
I am gonna go now, bc I am supposed to be at the lake in one hour!
