my weekend

Charlie's Jack O' Lantern

It's great to be loved. Kissed is great too!

I got a chance to have Tawnya meet Keith, Lori, Charlie. Charlie took a liking to Tawnya. While he is normally a bit shy, not so. It was good and I guess everyone had a good time! Yea! Charlie did mention that he was bored and so I put on a simplistic video game for him. He was quickly bored of most games. We later played board game of LIFE. Keith finished last. I squeaked by with a timid win. The five of us played poker after that. I think the integration of family and friends is going well, however slowly.

I mucked up with X and certainly don't want to do that again. Moreover, I truly and deeply love Tawnya!

On Sunday, I bade a sorry good day to Tawnya and helped Keith and Lori take out the dock at Lake James. Don showed which was very helpful. Two people can do some, but in the end three or four people work best. It went quickly except for ...

The pontoon boat would not start for all the money in the world. Lori couldn't get it to turn over, nor could Keith or Joanne. Pffstt! Done. We raked up some leaves and headed out taking Micah with us. Charlie and Micah played some games. Keith and I went and got pizza fixings.

Lori stopped functioning like the boat. She had pain in her neck, back, ribs, heart, arm. She was done. She lucked out and didn't have to go to emergency room.

It was an exciting weekend and Lori's mom mentioned that I should come up to the lake to enjoy it, not just work on it. Point taken and made. I never made it up this year. I hope to do so next year.
