A pretty dull weekend...warning, this may take on a negative tone...I'm not feeling negative, I'm actually in a great mood...but, our weekend, was what it was...dull!

SATURDAY:  BAKED A MEAN CHERRY COBBLER TO TAKE TO MY SISTER-IN-LAW'S HOUSE...WE CELEBRATED MY FATHER -IN-LAW'S 75TH BIRTHDAY.  UNFORTUNATLY, THEY KEEP THEIR HEAT AT 62 DEGREES AND WE FROZE...BUT THEN WE  HEATED UP WITH AN INTENSE CONVERSATION ABOUT FOLK MUSIC VS. RAP MUSIC.  I DECIDED THIS CONVERSATION WAS COMPARABLE TO CHEWING OLD, STALE BUBBLE GUM.  THE CONVERSATION ALSO INCLUDED A BIG DEBATE ON THE PUBLIC SCHOOL SINKING FUND AND THE NEW BOND ISSUES, SINCE MY BROTHER-IN-LAW WORKS FOR THE SCHOOLS AND LEANS LEFT, AND US, BEING OBLIVIOUS TO ANYTHING HAPPENING WITHIN THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, WE JUST DID A LOT OF "UH-HUH'S AND ATE OUR PULLED PORK SANDWHICH'S....WELL, NOT ME...I DIDN'T EAT THE PULLED-PORK..."  BUT, I DID SAY "I, SEE AND UH-HUH" A LOT.

CAME HOME AND MADE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP AND HOMEMADE BREAD AND PLAYED THE GAME LIFE.  YES, BRAD WON AGAIN.

FELL ASLEEP ON THE COUCH.

SUNDAY:  WORKED OUT IN THE MORNING, THEN HEADED TO DAVISBURG, TO A CIVIL WAR EXHIBIT...A LIVING HISTORY EXPO.  IT TOOK US ABOUT 12 MINUTES TO HUSTLE THRU...FUNNY THING, WE ALL MAINTAINED REALLY GOOD ATTITUDES AND ACTED LIKE IT WAS JUST GREAT...THEN WE GOT IN THE CAR AND TOMMIIE SAID, "WELL, THAT WAS A WASTE OF A DAY"....  BRAD HAD A CONVERSATION WITH A MAN WHO HAD REALLY TERRIBLE BREATH AND HE COULDN'T GET OUT OF THE CONVERSATION....BRAD KEPT STEPPING BACK, BUT THE MAN KEPT GETTING IN HIS SPACE. 

OUR BIG FANCY-SCHMANCY FINISH TO THE WEEKEND, IS ENDING UP WITH BRAD PULLING TOMMIE ON A SLED BEHIND THE TRACTOR, OUT IN THE FIELD AND ME CLEANING THE HOUSE...AND MAKING GRILLED CHEESE SANDWHICH'S FOR DINNER. 

EBAY WAS TOUGH THIS WEEK.
