A Weekend

Friday night I was feeling pretty bummed out. My friend Nory found out that she had to go back to Puerto Rico. She actually left this morning (Monday). Sniff, sniff. So Saturday morning I went and picked her up. We went up to Luke Air Force base and walked around the Exchange for a bit. She needed some luggage so we picked her up a nice set. Then she tolerated me needing to do my grocery shopping at the commissary. After shopping we went home, I unpacked groceries, then helped Steve put the top back on the filter for the pool. But now our pool is nice and clean and swim-worthy! Way to go Honey!!
Then Nory and I went and got our nails done and a pedicure too. My nail person, Ve, got engaged!! YAY! After nails, we went to Play It Again Sports where I got David a new chin guard for his helmet. Then we went to Target, had Starbucks, bought luggage locks, then to Sears for new wallets. I was also looking at rings for Steve while at Sears. Couldn't find just the right one though. I got home late, forgot to call Denise back because I was so tired and a bit weepy. Sniff!
David had football practice on Saturday and one of his friends (and team mates) got hurt - dislocated his knee! OUCH! Alex Lawson (AKA Lawman) will be out for 2 to 3 weeks. They start games this Saturday.
Sunday was draining. We worked on the pool and finally have it all swim ready. I was in the water vacuuming it out. I took Ariel in a couple of times so she could learn the stairs. LOL That was funny! Then when I took a shower, I brought her in so I could get the chlorine off of her too. We came out in matching towels. Isn't she adorable?
To make matters even funnier, we have a new chlorine bobbing thing for the pool. It is a shark. And Ariel was afraid of it. She was standing by the side of the pool just barking away! I wish I had a video. But here is a picture of the shark of mass destruction in our pool.
Talked with Alex a few times over the weekend. Last night he turned on his web cam and microphone. I really need to get a new web cam (can't find mine) and get a mic too. But he was talking with us and we were typing responses. It was pretty cool. He talked to me for a bit, then Steve, then me, then David. I took a picture of David talking to Alex on the computer. You can see Alex on the screen. He cut his hair! And it isn't black anymore. :(


Denise - I am sorry we didn't make it to Scott's party. I will send you an email. We will come by with a belated present when Arynn is here! She arrives on Saturday! Yippeee!! We are looking forward to her visit.
Okay, I guess that sums it all up for now. I hope Nory makes it home safe. Last I checked her flight she was flying close to the Great Lakes.
