I was kind of hoping I would get more comments about pet peeves from my last post, but maybe people just aren’t as annoyed as me. I thought if I left that post for a day longer maybe it would be seen more. Seen more by the 5 people who visited me. Now to write about the weekend.
I get sick of sitting in my house for too long. So, a while back, I suggested we go visit a family member’s house. They have lived there for five years and we still haven’t gone to see their house. The kids love swimming so, I thought it would be neat to stay at a hotel with a pool and make it kind of like a mini get away of some sort. So, much for our little “get away”. More family members were invited. That changed the fun “get away” to full family function. I like my family but, I just wanted it to be my wife and the kids. We get to the hotel to find our toilet was messed up from the previous occupant (I doubt I needed to know that). The air conditioner didn’t work. BUT…it had a pool. The pool was cloudy and kind of scared me a little bit. I know it wasn’t long ago that I would careless what the water looked like. Now I was thinking, do I have any cuts or hang nails, do not open you eyes in the water, try not to accidentally swallow any water. I have turned into a germ-a-phobe. My kids wanted to jump in right away. In the end we all had fun swimming.
While everyone was getting ready to get something to eat, I wandered around to find, hopefully, a drink. I walked into the lounge and asked if that had any drinks. WOW…no drinks. I am with in-laws with no alcohol. I managed to get through it. Since there were more than 5 of us their now, we still didn’t get to see the house. Nothing goes how I plan it.
The weather was great Sunday. I cut my grass for the first time. I have to cut my grass pretty much every 3 days. It might seem excessive but, I have a nice green yard that needs proper treatment. I like being outside so, that is what I like doing. I was also able to till up my garden. I am not ready to plant anything yet, nor is the weather ready to stop being cold.
I removed a tree last year and am trying to get grass to grow there. It is spotty with grass so, I chopped some turf from around another tree and transplanted it. Hopefully it will take hold and grow there.
I also watched the Masters. I am not a Tiger fan but, I think golf is missing Tiger. I probably wouldn’t have turned the tv on in the garage and taken time to watch the golf, if I hadn’t seen Tiger make a charge. Golf enthusiasts will watch golf religiously, but the casual golfer needs Tiger. It might just be me. What are your thoughts? I am not a fan of what he did in his private life but, I like the way he can tare up a course and all of a sudden he is in contention.
