I had a good weekend.
Beth came over Friday night. She brought the fixings to make spaghetti, so we had supper and then watched "Bad Moms" together. We laughed a lot. And she spent the night, so we got up the next morning and went to Waffle House for breakfast.
~Noah, something about girl gossip. The hike.
Tyler and I went Saturday and got his hair cut and we did our grocery shopping for the week. Saturday night we went to the fair with John and Noah.
~ John, as we sat on a bench talking and watching the boys as they waited in line for a ride, re: Tyler, "and a kid that I love."
Noah spent Saturday night with us and we got up Sunday and went to Graham Creek preserve and Beth went with us. We had a picnic and took the two mile hike. It was fun, but I wouldn't drag the whole family over there. The hiking trail is more like a farmer's roads around the edge of his fields. Beth said it was like we'd run out of gas and were walking to the gas station. ;-) But, we did see some pitcher plants.
I did a lot of just hanging loose this weekend. Just messing around on Facebook, and not really doing much of anything.
Annette and Brittany finished their race in Texas.
Beverly got to have a massage at JeJung spa and she enjoyed hers as much as I enjoyed mine.
Daddy called just as we were starting our hike Sunday, so Tyler, Noah and Beth all got to talk to him.
Beth said she thinks we ought to go cook Thanksgiving dinner for them.
Just standing back and watching Noah and Tyler walk the hike, talk at the fair...

We got to have a birthday dinner with Angela.
We're having pretty sunrises. I'm not sure why they are prettier lately than usual. Maybe we're just out there at a different time. Or sun is rising more closely to the time we're out there, what with the move towards winter. Anyway, pretty.
We ordered Angela's graduation announcements, etc. last night.
I'm having a quiet morning.

Valerie called me last night even though she was tired.
Angela sent me a Facebook message.
Brittany texted me back.
Lindsey stopped by for a visit.
Daddy called. He liked the little book I sent him. He is able to drive short distances again, and is going to have lunch with a car friend of his.
Beverly came over early this morning, all dressed out in her gear, to go for a practice hike. They decided to wait and do that this evening, but she sure looked cute. When I said that, she said, "Everybody needs (gets, has?) a mommy."
When Tyler called from school today, he said, "I know it is late notice, but I was wondering if I could stay after school today to try out for honor band." I thought it was sweet that he started with, "I know it is late notice..."
It took me from about 8:15 to 11:00 to download AmEx, etc., and reconcile the checking account. So ... about 2 hours and 45 minutes? I also culled the Outlook emails, and I also had trouble with Quicken. Without the random problems, it would have been more like 2 hours and 15 minutes, and if I'd had the office clean and ready to go at 7:35, I would have been in pretty good shape. As it was, I got the household bookkeeping back in great shape by lunchtime, which is great. No exercise, but I may still pull that out of the bag. Rearranged the laundry and did the delicates and needs to be hung up, so that's good. It was my objective and I feel good about that.

Second time this morning that my phone has crashed. "Can't find your SIMS card." I'm really just going to have to go to the AT&T store.
The temperature in the writing shack seems to be going down instead of up, and I can't find the instructions. I need to finish setting things up. I feel reasonably certain that it is here somewhere.
We had Goodtimes, and Beth was here, so I was happy about that. Zak and Vivian came, they played a couple of hands of Stewardess with Beth and I. Lots of laughter.
Michael and Faith made brownies. They've really got that down pat, now.
Morgan, Angela, Kennedy, Tori, Josh, Beth and Beverly gathered in yard, along with all of their puppies. It was like a new generation of Goodtimes, only with puppies.
Zak turned on the football game, and Barry and Brandon talked about one of the games.
Michael, Faith, Noah and I played a round of Stewardess at the start of Goodtimes, and with the exception of Daniel, at that time, we were the only ones here. Noah said, "Some of my cousins are late."
Chris stayed and got the go-cart running, and they had a lot of fun riding on it. Faith and Skyler talk to each other a lot about Goodtimes.
Autumn brought Willo, and she had a lot of fun.
