Welcome back and happy Tuesday! We're prepping to head out on a ski trip in a couple days. The school district was kind enough to give the kids Friday off for staff development which totally works in our favor, and we'll even have fresh snow to look forward to. It's all falling into place nicely. Now to just get through the rest of the work week.
I'm home with the boys for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. John had to work but was able to meet us for lunch at a local sandwich shop called Grand Central Station. Their specialty is Philly Cheese Steak.
Justin has started tennis conditioning and Rusty is showing his support. This ball is actually the dog's toy but he has a thing for sitting behind her things. We're still getting some rain on and off and when I got home from work, parking next to Tyler's truck, I saw this spider web dripping wet. I think it looks pretty cool so I had to get a picture. Nature amazes me.
Tonight was back-to-school night at the high school for Justin's 2nd semester, and I'm sitting in his Film and Lit class which sounds really interesting. Wish I could take the class with him. Meanwhile Justin is home getting his homework done after some tennis conditioning and getting some love from Rusty. This is a nightly thing for them.
Day 18- Thursday, 1/18/18
Brandon just got home from basketball practice, showered, and is now playing basketball on the computer. He just can't get enough. I prefer when he plays for real though.
Day 19- Friday, 1/19/18
TGIF! Even though it was a short week it seemed really long. John made us some drinks to help kick off the weekend as we settled in to watch a movie--the remake of Flatliners. I'm having a lemon drop made with fresh lemons from a tree out back, and John is having an old fashioned made with oranges from the store. LOL!
Finally sunshine! Nothing but warm rays and blue skies--no rain, no fog. and no clouds. It seems like forever since we've seen a clear sky and the dose of vitamin D feels really good especially while walking the dog. Time for another basketball game. These weekly games are late like at 7 pm or later which I'm still getting used to. I'm not a night owl at all. Honestly if the game were at 7 am I'd be way happier ;0)
Day 21- Sunday, 1/21/18
Today is a super chill day. It's cold out and a bit dark so staying in to do laundry is not a bad thing except that the cable went out and folding laundry without watching TV is a drag. It's also getting harder and harder to sort clothes now that all the guys in the house are pretty much the same size. I might just have to throw everything in a pile and let them figure it out.
That's it! Check back next week for hopefully some pretty snow pictures.
That is a really COOL picture of the wet spiderweb. You have such an eye for detail. I hear you about not knowing which clothes belong to which male in the house. LOL!
ReplyDeleteLove the spider web picture! Nature is amazing! I hear ya with the laundry, mine is 3 teenage girls that all wear the same size. I can't tell at all who wears what. The joys of laundry! Enjoy your skiing trip!
