Retirement Life at the Lakehouse

I retired June 2009 and I have spent much more time at The Lakehouse. I have enjoyed each and every day and have not had a bored moment. I stay so busy doing things I want to do that I rarely find myself idle. I guess with the major remodeling complete there has not been as much to post. This is a new phase of life at The Lakehouse and maybe I can post retirement memories.

Saturday, May 31st

Today was very quiet here. However there was still no sleeping late. Randy called to see if Kyle wanted to work today...which I knew he would want to. So Kyle was up and ready to go and of course I had to see him off... make sure he had food and water, etc. Pat mowed the yard once he got awake and I mopped and vacumned and did some general cleanup. Blake had a leisure day...doing the things he does best... watching TV and shopping. In the afternoon I wanted to check out the new driveway close to the road so Blake and I went shopping .. with no real intentions other than bread and milk...just kinda looking and browsing...checking out various stores that I enjoy browsing in. We did not find anything major we could not live without. I did remember to buy measuring cups and looked for the electric knife but did not find one... but we did not go to walmart, lol. We did locate a futon that might just be the ticket for my sewing room or possibly the playstation/xbox room.

Kyle did not get home until 530 ...so was a long day for him. He seemed to have enjoyed his working. He took a shower and ate thenI figured he would crash...but he took the paddle boat and went fishing for 2 hours. I don't think I mentioned that Kyle's report card did not meet his Dad's expectations so I had to take his keys and cell phone a few days ago....until Chris gets here. He has taken it like a man and just found other things to do.

I did not take any pictures today...shame on me. I called Brooke tonight and she seems ready for school to be out. I did mention to her the fact that she will have to wear uniforms going to school in Mississippi next year. She seem to know that and was cool with it. I am looking forward to seeing her in about 9 days. I have thuroughly enjoyed a leisure day with no plans and no commitments, lol.
