lake goals

mancation was happened. three days planned of chilltastic excellence at the lakehouse. boating, swimming, kayaking, vidjagaming, billarding, grilling, running, playing, no frollicing, and just good times in general. eight of us were planning on going. one bailed at the last minute, a reason and decision we respect but that saddened us all. one broke a toe while jumping in the lake. one got severely nasty awfully since with some stomach virus, fighting the big D and the cold sweats, and was MIA for most of the weekend. but five guys had a great time. oh, the severely sick one was me. i lost 10 pounds. i am now gonna attempt to make lemonade out of lemons and keep that poundage off by eating better and exercising more. the exercising won’t be tough to do. playing soccer, flag football and running more often lately. i scored my first soccer goal since middle school. that was flipping fantastic. cohen calls me “da-dee” and he sounds like a little british boy. when he wants us to get off the couch to play with him he pulls on our shorts and says “down”. mandy’s 2nd pregnacny continues to go very very well and we are counting down the days until 11/20. been a slow week at work, which has been a nice transition from the sickly weekend. EPL has started up, yay soccer! NFL and college football are just DAYS AWAY. i love the fall. love love excitement. et cetera.
