Let the sun shine
Jun. 11th, 2001 08:03 amWell, had quite a nice weekend to say the least. The sun came out and I felt pretty productive. Friday night, Marie had training for babysitting classes, so I was ‘home alone’. I watched part of the NBA playoffs and updated some rants and raves for my website. No big whoop.
Saturday was a trip to Kenosha for our 2nd wedding shower. Rode down with my parents, about a 2 hour drive. Got there around 12:30 or so and had a great time. Nice meal, lots of presents and little time to talk with Marie’s dad’s side of the family. Got back to Oshkosh around 6:30 or so and felt like a swim, so Marie and I took a dip in the pool. It was nice because no one else was in it and it was very refreshing.
Sunday took us to the grocery store and to Target for some shopping items. Got back and had some lunch, then had a nice visit with Tim and Andrea, who happened to be passing on thru. Got the 2nd part of our shower gift from them, a cool game called King’s Cribbage. Basically, it’s cribbage but played on a Scrabble board. You get tiles with card denominations on them and make the best cribbage hand. Looks to be pretty awesome, so we’ll be breaking that out soon.
After they left, I headed over to Terry and Eric’s for some video games (my team made it into the NFL playoffs again, rock on!) Beat the Cardinals 31-7 and will face off against Terry on Tuesday night. Was planning on playing some tennis, but it was pouring out this afternoon. So came back home and had some supper, and then met Terry and Eric at the tennis courts on campus around 6, after the sun had come out. Played around for a good hour and a half, felt pretty good to be back on the courts and running around. Came home sweaty and tired, hopped in the shower and got to working on updating the website. I do must of the uploading of files from work, since it’s much faster. Adds to turn-around time, but of the 7 people that visit my website, I figure they can handle it.
