I do not recall an Easter being so blah. We did nothing, as far as getting out to church or just a day trip.
Dave and I still have colds but they do seem to be improving. We did get a little mowing done, (places me did not get to on Saturday) and I pulled weeds in the rock again.
Yesterday we were so exhausted by evening, We were both moaning, (and it was pure exhaustion). At one point David began walking to the kitchen.
He had such a hard time walking I started singing to him
"Quack, quack, Waddle, Oh quack quack, waddle, quack, quack, waddle, oh Quack.'"
He turned and laughed.
I did not do much better. I barely moved but that is old age for you. Work those old muscles then pay, with slow movement and aching bodies.
Saturday We began the day working on the yards. I edged the entire lawn while he began mowing. He mowed the half acre and I then began cleaning the pool. It was a mess with all the fallen oak pollen. It looked really good once I was done but we had to drain the hot tub. It was really green. Not a good green either. Yuck.
But today it was clear, after a hard three or so hours, we hopped in.
Man it felt good. The jets gave us a great Massage.
For our Easter dinner we had
TA DA.....
Frozen Pizza, and ice cream with bananas. That was it. I ate about three bites of pizza, I was too tired to eat.
We (as in we both sat down to watch , someone slept) Ratatouille (sic) or however it is spelled. Whatever I watched it, David slept.
I rather enjoyed it, Several of the quotes were quite good.
"If you spend time looking behind you will never know what lies ahead." So True.
Lord never let me spend time regretting, May I always be Thankful for your sacrifice.
So did we have regrets today or look back? YEP!!!
Looking back! We were looking back to see if this was the first time we recall just the two of us On Easter.
No little ones to hunt eggs or hear the laughter. But that is what life is, You move on and you little ones are moving on as the little ones God has put in your life.
Enjoy each little moment, Plant it in your heart to always remember to be thankful, For the Little Moments. They can add up to a lifetime.
He maketh me to lie down in Green Pastures,
He leadeth me beside the stillwaters.
Psalms 23:1-2

I am sorry you didn't have dinner with anyone,I figured you were at Ken and Kris's.
We had two sick kids so guess what? We stayed home, had a big dinner and then took a nap on the couch!
We decided to postpone our Easter until this coming Sunday, due to the DOWN POUR we received ALL DAY yesterday. Would not have been fun having to stay in the house. SO we will enjoy our Strawberry Shortcake and Ice Cream Sundae's this Sunday.
Hope everyone is feeling better. I am right there with you on the sore muscles and aching bodies. Larry and I spread 15 yards of top soil, after moving some of the dirt where we were putting it. That was a all day job on Friday and most of Saturday, But it is almost finished.
