Sweet Dreams


Oh boy, winter is coming and the weather is getting cooler. Most of our leaves were knocked down this weekend. The combination of heavy rain and strong winds was too much. It was a busy weekend as everyone seemed to have something to do. Work remains pretty much the same and no relief in sight. Friday night was a "boys" night out as the women in our lives were on a retreat. Pastor Jim joined us and we did our best to eat all the steaks and cheese fries at Logan's Roadhouse.

Wild Mom is doing well and anxiously waiting for the crusie to get here. Still no buyer on the motor home. Lady went on a retreat, had a great time and returned with a sore throat. #1 hung around the house and grieved the Jaguars loss to a better team on Sunday. #2 went to PA to help someone move stuff. Work is very erratic for him. Peanut worked, rested and paid bills. Now come the problem of where to spend the left over. AJ is all over the place. His crawling skill increases daily and now he is even pulling up on low items. He had some trouble Sunday with an animal cracker but nothing that wasn't easily cleaned up. Tubs work wonders. Bowling was a mixed bag as two kids weren't there and bowling with 2 blind scores is a sure path to a loss. We continue to roll good on Sunday night and continued our slow ascent tothe top. Star is working and learning what it means to be a "rookie". Who knows, maybe one day she will be a runway model for Victoria's Secret. With everything going on this weekend, we didn't get to spend any time with Lil Princess and Lew. Is it possible to miss them so much in so little time. Saturday was spent driving down to a healing service at NewTown UMC near Williamsburg. Carl, Paul and I went. The highlight was the stop at Pierce's BBQ. That is some good eating and quite filling. The drive down and back was uneventful except for a broken windsheild wiper blade and one burned out headlamp. We even managed to fine gas for $1.80. Sunday ended with the "Mighty Redskins" kneeling in defeat to the "Desperate Cowboys." Yeah right. The announcers will say anything including reversing their spin when the games momentum changes. Life is almost perfect.
