Really? Is that all there is?

Josh and I had a nice relaxing weekend, again. I feel like we never do anything anymore, but thats fine my me. I love being at home, just spending time together. If we aren't at home, we're at Rob & Melissa's, our home away from home.

Friday we hung out with our neighbors drinking beer in their driveway. We had lots of laughs. It is so nice to live in such a fun neighborhood. Saturday we headed over to Rob & Melissa's for an awesome dinner and then sat by their new fire pit to break it in. Today we cleaned the house and then watched the Olympics and napped most of the afternoon. We went to our favorite Mexican restaurant for dinner and then headed home to get ready for another week. We need to stop going to this restaurant so much - we go on average of once a week. They totally know us - its getting to the point where they give us menus and ask what we'd like only as a formality. Its sad - but the food is so good!

This week should be fairly quiet. I'm starting my carpool tomorrow morning. I'm going to be driving with two people from Metamora that also work at Cat in Morton. We're going to switch off weeks - should save a ton of money! We don't have softball anymore, so no more weekly commitments. Its getting to be that time of year when things slow down and the weather starts to get cooler. I'm so ready for fall - its my favorite season.

Thursday we are headed up to the UP for the weekend. There is some serious drama going on between my family and my dads brother and sister (whom I do not consider family). I'll explain it all later after I've gotten things sorted out with the lawyer - its a long story. Thankfully, my dads sister (whom I refuse to refer to as 'aunt') will be gone back to Texas by the time we get there. I'm sure we wont see my dads brother - he stays away because he knows how we feel about him. I just hope everything goes smoothly this weekend.

Katie - I'm really sorry to hear about your dad. I was just catching up on your blog and that I couldn't believe it. I can't even imagine how you begin to try and deal with that. I'm glad that you have Josh there to lean on and support you. If you ever need someone to just talk to, I'm not very good at saying the right thing, but I'm good at listening!
