Today started off early as usual for some. I did not sleep well....and moaned and groaned as I moved to get out of bed. I promise this is not gonna become a oh woe is me post, but truthfully that has been the way my day was. I decided I have to move to overcome this soreness ... stiffness or whatever it is because being still makes it worse. I left about 830 headed to get a pedicure and manicure...hehehe and sit in the massage chairs while doing so. I stopped and got Marcia on my way and she joined me. We were too early so we went to Wal Mart to do a lil shopping while waiting for them to open. My shopping included more BC powder for pain and more band aids, lol. I got most of the things that have been accumulating on my list that did not require refrigeration. I was pretty miserable mostly forcing myself to move about. Then back to the pedicure place. We got right in and the massage chairs felt good to my back....my elbow is still oozing... not sure what is with that but it has been from the start. I looked like an old woman maneuvering around to get my pedicure and manicure....I was glad I could not speak the same language as the pedicurist, lol. This was relaxing however, I guess its just being forced to sit still but when I did need to move to change feet etc it was comical to most. Marcia and I went to the mall for some more torture for me, lol. When the errands were completed there I carried her home and made one more stop to get ice cream... like Brooke tells me ice cream makes everything feel better.It was approaching 2 when I got home and I knew I had to take a swim in the lake. I had a nice swim and just relaxed the rest of the day even took a nap. This lake water cures everything....seriously I have seen it cure many things like mosquito bites, poison ivy and ring worm. Right now I am trying to figure out how to make a whirl pool out of the swimming hole, lol. If I ever needed my whirlpool tub it is now...but it is still not installed.

The guys all had a very lazy day... They basically napped , watched TV and ate. I did not even cook a single meal today. I guess it seems like a boring place today but no one complained and Pat filled the pontoon with gas but no one wanted to cruise. I suspect tomorrow will be a more active day for all.

The house is progressing and I think next week they will start the rock and the tin for the roof.

Much of the day has been spent on the phone trying to make plans for the 6 flags trip next week. One would think this is not a complicated thing but its called coordination, lol. With folks from Mississippi and Alabama to meet up with Me, Chris and Brooke coming from North Carolina and hopefully with Brandon from Georgia and Dustin in Bham... Chloe is in Tuscaloosa now at a swim camp so we are trying to figure out how to get her to join in with us, lol. This will be a trip to remember for a lifetime if it happens. I can barely move from one chair to the next and I am fixing to go walk at 6 flags all day lol. I really feel I will be better in a few days but it seems I am still getting worse, lol. OK I lied it is an Oh woe is me post.
