Sunday, October 31, 2010.
There aren't any pictures this time, sorry. I am trying to run this through Internet Explorer instead of Mozilla Firefox and it is giving me a difficult time. I wondered if it would be faster and it appears to be, but I have to "find" my pictures and I don't want to take the time right now.
It is Sunday morning again and I went to church, as I think everybody should. Going to church humbles a person and we all need to be a little more humble, right?
After church I got a Milwaukee Journal and said hello to some friends in the BP where I got the paper.
When I got home, I helped John answer some e-mails and did some computer work with him. Then I went to the Spruce cabin to start the cleaning process there. I wanted to get at least half of it cleaned before noon, when the Packers will play.
I finished cleaning the kitchen and made the beds in the Spruce cabin at about 11:50 a.m. Then I quickly turned on the pre-game and made us some lunch. I made French toast, Nueske's bacon and hash browns. John had been working on his mom's flight arrangements for Majuro, Marshall Islands, and he was getting frustrated. So he enjoyed the break of the game and a nice lunch.
During the game Dave came into the lodge and asked for a spray bottle for water. It was during the last two minutes so I didn't want to miss the game. So I told him there was a water bottle on my ironing board in the basement and he went to get it. Later I realized how rude that was of me, especially since he is putting cultured stone on one of our cabins, and I will have to apologize. The Packers won in their first away game that was a total shut out since 1991.
After the game I did some laundry and sewing. Maple cabin is shut down now so I have all that laundry to do too. I went up there and made a trip back with an arm full. Later I took a laundry bag up there and filled it as well as carried an arm full back down to the laundry room. I took Senna for a long walk too, which she loved.
John worked on the piers in the lagoon and boats. He said he bailed the boats for about an hour with his hands in the cold water the entire time. That was ice cold! Then he said that the boats had so much water in them that he "couldn't believe it". We had received a lot of rain in the last week, but it was mostly at night. So we weren't aware of how much we received until he looked at the boats. He will be taking out some of the boats tomorrow.
Later John watched football until very late and I finished a book I was reading, "Firefly Lane" by Kristin Hannah. It was a tear jerker but a great book about a lifelong friendship between two women on two very different paths. I had never read a book about growing up in the same time period as I did and it was so fun reading about that. It was a good day.
