Happy Monday!

Well, the week was off to a rather slow start. Jack (german shephard) could not resist to urge to bark at what goes bump in the night, all night ...and Mark had to leave at 2:30 a.m. for Des Moines, so I awoke a little foggy. Then, I drank too much coffee for a non-coffee drinker and then I felt gross and tired. I finally shut the pot off, hello! and felt much better.

Made some progress with the lighthouse project. I got it placed and some rock moved and have left a few spots open in hopes I find that random neat thing to put in there. It was fun to see the light come on last night as it got dark. It is a solar light that charges daily in the sun, then shines at night! It has an option for a strobe action, like a real lighthouse, but that more resembles a prison yard to me at night, so I just have it on a constant light! I am getting there:




Our weekend was fairly uneventful and yet it seems we are busy both days, too! We went for a motorcycle ride Saturday night. Every time we go, the first 30 minutes I find myself wondering why we don't do it more often and I have all of these wistful inspiring thoughts as the scenery passes by so poetically. Then, 2 hours and 30 minutes later, my ears hurt, my back hurts, my entire body is vibrating and what skin that was exposed feels tingly and almost numb for the next 4 hours and I wonder what the hell I am doing out there! Oh well - I will go through that cycle 4,000 more times I'm sure!

Happy Monday!
