Weekend at the Lake!!

I got up Friday and went to the gym. I did 30 minutes on the treadmill at about 3.4 - 3.8 speed but I don't remember the incline. Later that day we decided to go to Lake of the Ozarks with my sister and her boys to stay with another sister at their condo. Joe was working on the farm so we left with Laura & the boys at about 1pm. We got there and soon went shopping. Joe worked until almost 8pm, got lost getting back to mom & dad's (regular road was closed for repairs, had to detour to who knows where), and then started his drive the Lake. Oh and what a drive it was!!! He got so very lost and we kept trying to help him get on the right track but he kept driving and kept getting more lost. At one point he asked me "Am I supposed to be on a dirt road?" Umm... NO!!! Later on in regards to getting lost he said "Well I'll worry about that later!!!" Oy va!! He finally made it to the Lake just after midnight. The first thing he did was pee and then he got some food. He REFUSED to stop for directions multiple times. BOYS!!!!!



Saturday Joe & Joe went to the boat store. Later on most of us did a lot of shopping and I got a really cool pair of shoes. They are water shoes and very comfortable. We went swimming later on and Nate loved it! He didn't like it too much when we went to the deep end tho. I don't really know what else we did early on but Lisa & her Joe went on a date and that's when we went swimming. Later on instead of shopping with Laura again, Joe & I went on a date. We went to Culver's for dinner and ice cream. We sat on the patio and just sat there and watched the cars go by. It was so nice to get away even just an hour.



Sunday we got up early and got all excited to get on the boat. Well the boat had problems so my brother-in-law Joe went to the boat store and spent a lot of the morning working on the boat. I downloaded a bunch of songs to put on Laura's new MP3 Player. The boat took longer to fix than expected to fix so we went to play putt putt gold instead. Afterwards we went to Culver's for lunch. We FINALLY got to go on the boat!! Towards the end of the boat ride and everyone getting to go tubing, Joe got his turn. He had never been tubing before and he LOVED it!! He did flip a couple times but he still loved it. After the 2nd flip, he was done and it was then my turn. I didn't flip it, which was very good because I forgot to wear a life jacket. After the boat, Laura & her boys left and about an hour later we left. Joe drove home so he could get a better feel for the roads. He did just fine. Once we got to Monroe he made me finish driving.



Today I got up early and went to water aerobics at the Y. It was from 9am - 10am. It went over pretty good and I hope to make it to the class every day, Monday - Friday. Once I got home, I rested and had an egg sandwich and then I started mowing both our yard and the rental yard. At 10am, Joe took Nate to Speech Therapy. He said he did ok but I'm not sure. I was trying to get some sewing done but forgot that all my thread and bobbins are in Monroe. Ugh... Just before I left for work, Joe noticed a tick on Nate's back. We tried to get it removed but couldn't so we took him to the walk-in clinic to get it removed. They got the tick out and then Nate went to Monroe for the evening. He's spending the night there so we get a night alone!!!



We went to Sonic and got some late night foods and I also got a Lime Limeaid!! Very good!!

I'm thankful for my life!!
