I talked to Lanie after Samantha left for her 2nd day of Kindergarten. Sam was excited to go and had drawn 2 pictures for her teacher when she woke this morning. I think Lanie was as tired and emotionally drained as Sam - it's hard having your 1st child go to school!!!
Ken cooked breakfast for us and we ate outside. It was a positively gorgeous morning and the view of the river incredible! By 9 we were on the pickleball courts and met some new players. It was a fun time, but Ken and I are both feeling alittle tired. We haven't had this much physical activity on a daily basis for a long time. We were back to Waldo by 11 and started to clean-up both inside and out for our return home tomorrow. Ken and I took time to rearrange the items in the basement storage bins and made some positive improvements. I did the same inside! We also put away all the outdoor "stuff" and then took time to eat lunch. At 1:30 we headed to the pool to play pool volleyball. Again, the people who play volleyball are so much fun and encouraging to those of us who do not play on a regular basis. By 3:30 we were back to Waldo. Ken took a short nap and I talked to my good friend, Jackie Hagy. We had a nice chat catching up on what all of us have been doing this summer. Then it was time to vaccum, wash the floors, dust, and clean the bathroom. I love how little time it takes to clean Waldo!
Ken spent some time today looking at info for our trip to the southwest. It is getting exciting. After dinner, we headed back to the pickleball court to play a few games before leaving tomorrow. Not sure why we felt compelled to do it, for we both feel like we need time to recoup from all this physical activity. Playing twice in 1 day is alot and we did it yesterday too! We were sad that Pete, Joyce, Bob and Carol did not come to play tonight. We realized we would not be able to see them again before we left.
Ken and I enjoyed playing with Isaac, Ginny, and Jamie. Isaac is and will be a great player! He is only 14! (Note my new paddle!) |
New friends, Lance and Bonnie Willie. He is a retired state policeman from Delaware. They have been full-timing for 3 years with their 8 year old son, Luke. who Bonnie home schools! |
