Mother’s Day Swim

Sunday, May 13th, 2007

Bucket finally got to use the swim trunks when we went to the river for Mother’s Day.

A Beer and a Hot Bath

Tuesday, May 8th, 2007

Tired, and sore from a particularly rough softball game ( we lost ) I decided to do something I haven’t done since the Reagan Administration. Take a bath and have a beer ( of course, I was not drinking beer when the gipper was in the house ). The experience started out sketchy as we have no drain stopper to speak of and my bath faucet is sloooow to fill up the tub. One thing I had forgotten is that I didn’t really need to feel the whole tub up b/c when I got in there the water went over the edges.

Several other lessons learned:

  • A plastic grocery bag works pretty well as a drain stopper
  • We need a much bigger tub
  • Alcoholic beverages are excellent when partially submerged in warm liquids.
