Weekend Wrapup

Edit: I forgot on Friday we attended some friends' kid's 21st birthday celebration. He was good enough to want a party with this parents and parents' friends, along with our kids who he is friends with. Nice ribs, dinner, and a good hike up to a bench he built on an unbelievably beautiful evening. It was a good, full weekend!

Wife is up visiting her P's so I've been on my own since Wed and will be for another week and a half. That means in addition to my usual stuff I get to walk the dog twice a day during the week rather than once and have to do all my own cooking (not that I mind but I'm a lazy cook and my wife is better than I am both in creativity and in variety).

So Friday rode to the gym and worked out then came home and went grocery shopping. Got a nice piece of salmon (wife hates it I like it) for Saturday nights dinner. Cooked a "Southwest" chicken dish that I found on Tasty a couple of years ago. This time decided not to eat it over rice since that means it lasts 2x longer. It still worked well without the rice.
Saturday more dog walking. Made the salmon with Cauliflower and a salad for dinner.
Sunday - 44 mile ride and more dog walking. Watched the end of the Indy500 and a replay of the Monaco GP. Finished the chicken dish
Monday Rode to the gym which was full of people that aren't usually there on Monday

Lame weekend here. Did pretty much nothing except for going to visit the parents on Sunday.

Friday was work as usual.

Saturday I had some morning appointments, then worked on a video for my may Songwriting entry.

Sunday - Carol was worship leader at church in the morning. I mostly chilled out the rest of the day.

Monday was rainy so I chilled out some more.

Friday night took an unexpected detour when my wife's transportation station where she catches her bus turned into a gristly murder scene on her way home...fortunately, she was never in danger & at worst her commute was extra long. Today it's a makeshift memorial to the selfless acts of courage that cost two men their lives and left a third injured.

Saturday - Started out the day at the grocery store in the AM. Wound up having to wait for some wacky homeless dude to clear the parking lot exit and he gave us a good batshit crazy stare as he shuffled through.
....aaaaaaannnnd later that day he was arrested for shooting at the police with what later turned out to be a BB gun

Ran out to a cycle dealer 45 minutes away on a wild goose chase for a bike that was already sold
Bunch of yard work....then later on Sat we, picked up a picnic table kit from lowes, hauled it home in the Fit, assembled & broke it in with some incredible prime strip steaks on the grill that night.

Sunday - added a couple plastic adirondack chairs around our fire pit for some chill outdoor time. Painted the table. Smoked a rack of ribs and started on some bagels

Monday - homemade bagels w/ cream cheese & Nova Salmon in the AM, killer lunch @ basilik w/ some burgers in the PM.
Mostly chill holiday weekend in reality.
