Warning, warning, this post is NOT about wine….the lovely beverage. If you have a low tolerance for self-pity and whining, read no further!
\nIt’s that time of year. I become a boat widow for the 2009 season tomorrow morning at 4:30. Dear Husband has the boat ready to be towed to the yacht yard, to be craned into Lake Michigan.
\nI HATE the days when he has to tow the boat. The last two times he brought it home, he had tire disasters on the trailer. I have asked him to buy one more spare tire, but he feels that is an unnecessary purchase. He told me he has four new tires on the trailer, and a spare, and he feels that should be enough. I was so ticked that I told him not to call me if he got another flat tire. That sounds so harsh, but the entire situation worries me, and makes me angry. Second Son said he would keep his phone on, and I’ll give DH SS’s phone number.
\nSO….it’s time to be planning FUN WEEKENDS! Next weekend I plan to fit in a trip to see Angels and Demons. I love Tom Hanks, and I enjoyed the book. The following weekend, I’ll be taking a trip with Elegante Mother to see her youngest granddaughter graduate from high school. And some time after that, I hope to make a road trip to Iowa with Frankie. The Antique Market, the Farmer’s Market, perhaps a trip to the Art Institute in Chicago, are all on my list of things to do. I’m open to suggestion!
\nWish DH luck tomorrow. Think positive thoughts for him, and if you pray, pray all morning, please! *G*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
