Yesterday Jim and I timed our drive perfectly. We left at 5:00 AM and made it to the ferry by 8:30. We could have probably made that ferry but I had to pee (couldn't wait) and we wanted to be on the same ferry with Maggie and Charlie (they were just 20 minutes behind us). We were on the island at 10 and went and had breakfast at Pasquale's. From there we hung out, took a gulf cart ride, took a nap and found the perfect piece of property to buy...on East shore. Only couple hundred thousand but it's got a lake view on a private lane. Should only cost a couple more hundred thou to build.
We started our day today at Frosty's with mimosas and bloody Mary's. We've made our chili and it's simmering on the stove and we're now about to head back to Frosty's for another mimosa...just didn't get my fill at breakfast. It's quite dreary here but perfect for hanging out and watching football and cuddling up with a punk-a-roo.
After breakfast (now updating again at 3:30) Eva is currently asleep and we're all trying to watch football. Jim and Charlie went downtown eat while Maggie and I stayed home to put Eva down and finish off the meatloaf. Jim went to the hardware store and got himself a t-shirt and me a sweatshirt (it's got the longitude/latitude of PIB). We're now watching Ohio State) and we're waiting for Auburn to come on. Jim and Charlie are currently snoring away and Bussie is being a bit of a jerk (he keeps trying to bite my feet and I keep having to kick him in the head...not really but, well, he needs a knock to the skull...kind of). Oh wait, he's now snoring away as well. It sure is loud in here and I'm not talking about football.
Tonight is just going to be chili and hanging out. Maybe Maggie and I will drink some wine...I don't know...we'll have to see if we feel like it (HA!). We'll hopefully be off tomorrow by 9 or 10...we'll see.
And that's it. Sad that we won't be here again for about 7 months. It never seems that long but I sure do love this place and can't wait until next year. K - later.
