Just Hanging Out!

Leave a Comment/ 445/ 0


1. Two Ninjas putting together the awesome BBQ
2. Aaron and Thomas testing out the waters
3. Lounging inside, watching movies in our deluxe furniture

So you can see what our guests have been up to this week so far!!! Actually they have been a great help in getting some stuff done including getting the surround sound set up, the internet and then the wireless for the dsl, and putting the bbq together which was a major major job from the sounds of the hammering and banging coming from the back porch intermingled with the strains of Motown !!! Funny funny guys!!! But it has been great fun having them here, cooking for them and taking them places!!!

We were all so disappointed yesterday because we thought our living room furniture was to come—4 pm came and went and no truck so I finally got a call through and they informed me that it was NEXT Wednesday that we would get it. So somewhere along the lines Chris got the message turned around so it is back to the beach chairs and the cane/rattan furniture that I had the boys move out for another week. Ah well. At least we have something to sit on.

Today we are homebound as Chris is back from his trip and has the car but that is okay—I think the boys want to sun a bit and walk the beach and I am happy just to be here!!! I did manage to go pick Chris up last night, after dark, in a place I had never been before and managed around all the construction so I am getting much braver and better!!! One of the guys that works with him (or for him–not sure) brought him back and had me meet them in a parking lot at a hotel and drive thru beer dock but it worked and I did just fine, thank you very much!!! And he got back much earlier than I thought he would so that was a nice surprise too. Chris rode down with his boss and said that he even offered to fly us back to make sure our house was okay if need be so I think that was a very generous offer but I think our realtor is handling things and we should be okay. We will see come September 15 when he inspects it!

The weather has been a little overcast the past couple of days and it looks as if the sun is coming out now so I am going to get ready to go for my walk on the beach! The funny thing is that whenever I do my walking I usually see about 5 people and 6 dogs—everyone has a dog or two and I guess that is what you do if you live at the beach. I get the feeling that no one likes cats at all because they have so many feral cats around. Weird, huh?

Not much else to write but I am looking for some kind of adventure today and will post later if I find something worthy of posting!!!

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
