Life Incognito

So, Memorial Day Weekend was spent up north....first time I made it up there since we blew the engine in the snowmobile...was that February or was that March? We arrived LATE on Thursday evening as Emily had her last band concert on Thursday evening...who planned that one! We woke up Friday morning to an absolutely beautiful Northern Michigan day. A bit of lawn clean up...no burning allowed as they haven't had rain in weeks...so what better way to enjoy the rest of the weekend but to don the sunglasses and sit on the boat all weekend. Well maybe not on Sunday when the wind was coming from the North....so we just moved over to the other lake and sat on their beach. Now, that's the life of retirement....

Now, I still need to wear my sunglasses as the raccoon eyes are shining the way around.

A Lull in Life

Ever have that time in your life, day, week that you just can't motivate yourself to do ANYTHING! Well that's been going on in my life for what seems like 2 months...maybe 3. Outside of the necessities...kids to school, practice, or whatever event is on the calendar, laundry, & grocery store it seems like a struggle to complete anything...maybe it's cabin fever from the winter. I change rooms to get different views, but I must say, I watch more t.v. now that I have since I was a kid. I still get up and go to the gym, but after that, it's life of boredom. All the things that held my interest...books, scrapbooking, lunching with friends have just taken a back seat! I've been reading The Host since March....when I'd go through 2-3 books a week, now I can't finish one in 2 months:)

Guess it's time to go back to work...a busy person finds time for everything! Maybe next week's 70 degree weather will help snap me out of this cycle....

Any suggestions!
