| we barely had room for the dead body we brought up to bury |
Hello from vacation! The weather is here, wish you were beautiful. It's
been in the 80's and sunny every day which never happens! I am such a B I had to leave the entire family during breakfast to come in to the
metropolis that is Pillager to walk the high school track and download
photos. If you are wondering why I don't just walk near the lake, clearly
you have never been dived bombed by horseflies who are working in
tandem with mosquitoes to distract you so the mosquitos can devour your
ankles. Also, I think you know how I feel about eating big
breakfasts...I can not eat like that and keep my dainty frame. I am at the
Shanty drinking blueberry pomegranate iced tea, but am having trouble
concentrating because the radio is on loud so do forgive if me I can not
stay focused.
Everyone is here except Jaimie who had to stay and work on the farm this
week but Charlie brought his new girlfriend, Sam, who Nori
described as "so adorable". We have been eating, reading, playing,
swimming, boating, camp fire-ing, crafting, scratching, crying, running,
biking, and sleeping. I mean not all of us have done all of those
things, but at least one of us has done at least one of those things. Or
possibly more than one. We celebrated Jake's birthday after I
smuggled a DQ ice cream tennis cake up on dry ice and then we celebrated
Liz's birthday with cupcakes the next day So far we have made
cheeseburgers, pulled pork sandwiches with spicey slaw, stuffed shells, and
tonight fish tacos. How was your ham sammy? Anyway, I am tan as never
which is good for my skin but bad for picking up guys which is actually
good for my marriage so it's really all good. Nori & Hen love the
water and swim their cute little butts off! It's so cool they can grow
up having awesome trips like this with their family! I meant it's not all
awesome, like when I blew up at my mom when she arrived with 10 bags of groceries
to make two breakfasts but maybe that is my issue. Whenever I get those
bad feelings, I just tell myself "Megan,
your issues are bothering you,
don't freak. They are just
your issues and they will go away".
Sometimes it works better than others. Also, the bugs and the waking up
at 5:30 with the kids is hard, but slamming the frozen daiquiris and
jumping in the lake part makes up for it (geez don't freak, I am fine
and always wear a flotation device.) So in summary, it's wonderful
expect when I spaz but then I recover and it's better. Also, we made a video, more of documentary really with commentary on the cabin fashion scene.
