Cat and Weekend
Well, it has been a relatively uneventful week here. We did move the cat box down another step last weekend. She was reluctant, but is coming around. Getting the cat box down to the bottom of the stairs may be a longer process than I originally thought.
I'm not sure what we'll be doing this weekend yet. I have a feeling we'll be back on the lake, though. The weather is supposed to be very agreeable this weekend. If not I'm sure we'll figure something out, maybe a picnic by the lake. There's a park just a short drive away that I'd like to see sooner than later. There's a whole new neighborhood and new side of town to get to know yet! All in due time, I guess.
I hope you have a good weekend!

Happy Fourth of July!
Happy Fourth! We spent yesterday afternoon on the boat having fun, but today is pretty much a day off. I thought about washing my truck, and there is planting to do, but the mosquitoes have come to life! It has been a cool, calm, cloudy day and they seem to be thriving. Oh well, I'll just have to put my feet up for a while... maybe it'll be more favorable tomorrow. I hope so, I do want to get the lawn mowed before the weekend is over.
I do have pics from yesterday, but even though no one objected when I said I may post one on the internet, I feel funny doing so. I haven't posted my picture, so why someone else? I have to learn how to black out faces correctly or something, maybe.

Favre, still out there
I'm loving all the t-shirt stuff like this. Like I've said before, I'm going to enjoy the sideshow. I know how opinions have become very divided among Packer fans everywhere. Thompson kicked him out! Favre is too wishy washy! Blah, blah, blah.
I guess I look at it logically (for me anyway), and as a fan of the NFL, not just a player fan. I know my brother is a big Favre/Packer fan. I'm not sure what side of the fence he is on here though.
I found this article by Dave Myers of the LaCrosse Tribune that I pretty much agree with wholeheartedly:

Grandmas are more fun than Ipod Surgery
Hello, I'm still here, just haven't posted lately. If I miss over a week then there may be a problem, but until that happens all is well. I do have a few things to say, just waited to say it, I guess.
I did go down and see grandmotherL this past Saturday. My Sis and her kids, J & L, came with me. It was a fine drive until we got lost. We were both unfamiliar with the newer road, so wound up going just a little out of our way. Despite being a little late, grandmotherL was right there to greet us as we arrived. We went out to eat at a cafe in town and enjoyed catching up. When it came time to pay the check, I fully intended to get it. GrandmotherL would have none of it. I stopped my protestations when she finally said "Shut Up!" She's almost 90. I did as she said. Turns out she had a 50 dollar gift card to use. Half of it went to our dinner, while I insisted at least I could leave the tip. She did let me do that (I left $3.95 - I don't know why I remember). After dinner we went back to her place and continued our visit for another hour or more. I think we all had a real good time. I am very glad my Sis and her kids accompanied me, though. More people help keep the conversation going. J & L were very well behaved. Even back at grandma's house where there wasn't much for them to do while the adults talked.
I just got done with ipod surgery a bit ago. Last week I was losing a channel in my headphones, the ipod jack was going bad. This has happened before, so I knew what to do. I ordered the part right away and it arrived this afternoon. I already had a new battery to install as well so I did it all in one shot. I'm getting to be an old hand at this. I've replaced a video screen, 3 jacks and hold buttons (1 piece), and a battery. Not all on my own ipod, of course. If you got a 5th gen video ipod that needs fixing we could work something out!
I'm not sure what we're going to do yet this 4th of July weekend, there are no plans set in stone. I love hanging around our new house, but I would like to get out a little if the weather's nice. Even if it's just a fast food picnic by the lake. How about you, any plans? Share in the comments.
