I love the weekends, We want to get away so badly, I know there is at least ten feet of snow at the park so that is out.
So the only logical thing to do is work in the yard. The pool can use a few leaves out, I am amazed at how easily the pool is to keep up.
It is sparking clear, even after several wind storms to blow in sand and limbs and leaves. We got them out with the leaf master.
We run the filter. We run the water falls, when we are out there. it is so soothing.
As I was out yesterday, The wind was blowing, The sun was a very warm 73 degrees, Perfect weather. However I can inform you now, if the wind is blowing and the deck-jets are at high, The wind can and will blow water at you, if you are too close. That is not warm, especially since the water is at 48 degrees.
So we can mow with the tractor, not a lot of work for either of us, well maybe me as I push the level of the blades. That seems to make me sore. I think the soreness is from lack of muscle use.
OK on weekends, we sleep in, really late. Like maybe anywhere from 730 to 930. According to how we slept. I never thought I would see the day David slept in. He was always a very early riser. Not only did he rise early, he whistled and sang and loved the morning.
Kind of irritated Ken and I. We are not morning people. Are we son?
We can get up but please don't sing to us.
Reminds me of the times Ken was a tree trimmer for Beaty and Assoc. He went to the woods with a crew of kids to trim Christmas trees for commercial use.
He had to ride to work with his dad. What a duo. Ken would come home saying, "Dad do you have to whistle and sing on the way to work?"
Ken was then wide awake and could be for hours into the night but dad was out on the sofa.
He would tell me about the torture his dad put him through at 6 in the morning.
It became a running Joke between he and Ken.
But Ken made money that summer. Even though he hated the job,He did it. The trees were scratchy, the dad was too happy at six am and some of the teens were slackers.
Ken you need to post about those years, You can keep your blog up that way.
So with those memories I will close and look forward to sleeping in, Like I never do. Really I do every day.Love it too.

I'm a morning person. I like to get up and see each day. I just can't sleep in. Sleeping until 7:30 is so rare that when I do it everyone wonders if I am sick. (this morning I woke up at 7:30 because I took a Knock me out cold medicine pill last night).
Anyway, I like to wake up early, but take my time getting going.
