I mentioned earlier that I was going to work out on the weekends. 1 of 2 days is not to shabby. Saturday morning came and we had egg and bagel sandwiches. Afterwards I headed downstairs to do a workout. The wife ran to Target for whatever people need at that wonderful money taking store. The weights came into play this morning. Some lat pull downs, shoulder raises and curls. Followed by what I consider a monster treadmill session. Had a little hiccup with the treadmill as the controls locked up and I had to momentarily turn it off and on to reset it. Anyway pushed through that and had a solid 30 min work out with 8 min run in the middle.
After the workout the kids and I went to West Marine to get an oil filter and power steering fluid for the boat. Today is the day that I changed the oil, empty it out and get the boat winterized for the season. I had some fenders to return but did not have the receipt. I was in the system and got a credit back for $65.00 that was awesome.
Winterized the boat and James had a play date with a neighbor boy. Fed James and Sam lunch after the play date and mowed the lawn. Showered and prepared for the next outing. I took both of them to the big grocery store to by our pantry items. For the most part they did ok and got to pick their own juice boxes. Afterwards we came home, grilled out cheeseburgers and chicken breasts. Susan was at an all day outing with her mom and sisters. So me and the boys got the fire pit and movie projector ready to watch the Badger football game outside.
Come dusk I turned the game on and one of my buddies stopped by for the first half. He is one of my old time friends and we have been drinking and partying since high school. We set a fairly wicked pace for a little bit. I made s’mores for the kids and they played flashlight tag for a while and then I put a movie on inside for them. Susan came home around 3rd quarter and other people had showed up by then. She was tired and did not hangout. After the game I picked up and passed out.

So I thought it would be a wonderful idea to have an 8:15 tee time at the golf course Sunday morning. I wake up feeling the effects of last night some. After a shower and moving around a little I’m off to the links. Today its my buddy who was over last night, his dad and dads friend fill out the foursome. A vodka orange juice was much needed and help calm the nerves by the 2nd hole. Except that pretty much got me going back to where I left off last night. A couple beers later and shooting a meager 53 we decide to head over to another course that is throwing an Octoberfest celebration. They guys stick around for a couple and leave. My neighbors show up and the wife brings down the kids. They play in the bouncy house and this hammer game, eat lunch and listen to some music while the Packers are on. We leave after a while and head back to the house. The wife tells me to go take a nap and recuperate so I can function this after noon. I oblige.
4:00 comes and I am a pile. I told my son that we would have ribs tonight so I muster enough strength to get out of bed and fire up the grill. Cook the ribs low and slow for 2 1/2 hours and there turned out fabulous. We play catch outside for a few minutes while the kitchen is being picked up. Afterwards we turn on Sunday night football and watch for a little bit. Everyone was tired and in bed around 8:30.
