Monday At The Bay

Currently, I'm sitting in my favorite spot at the Bay, looking at the water and eagerly awaiting Maggie's arrival. Doug and Lauren are still here but are leaving some time today. Lauren is out on the deck on a conference call. Jim's washing the window screens (his favorite thing to do). It's a lovely morning. 

We arrived on Saturday and caught the 9:30 ferry. Dad and Becky were just about to leave but decided to wait around to say hi and bye. Jim and I then unpacked everything and went to lunch at the Reel Bar. We came back and took a nap. I'd been awake since 3:00 so I needed it especially with Doug and Lauren coming up, knowing we would be partaking in some cocktails and cards and I needed to be at my best. 

Doug and Lauren - after a lot of back and forth because Naomi, their daughter, was having some issues - finally made it up and caught the 3:00 ferry. We had dinner at home and played cards before going to bed. 

Sunday, I got up and worked out and after we all showered, we headed to Frostys for breakfast. We then came home and Doug and I tooled around on the wave runner. It's running great. It was a really hazy day but good enough for the pool so we spent about an hour there. Doug and I attempted to climb the "rock wall". I made it up on one side but couldn't on the other. Doug wasn't successful on either side. It certainly looks a lot easier than it is and the dumb kids continued to show us up over and over. 

From there we went to lunch, well, actually appetizers, at the Crews Nest so as not to ruin our dinner. We originally went to The Boardwalk, Upper Deck, but the prices were so outrageous, we got up and left. Seriously, they wanted to charge $23 for a salad. I mean give me a fucking break. We ended up going to Hoolihan's and it was okay. 

Home after than where we played more cards and maybe had a few cocktails. 

Maggie is on her way up and hopes to make the 9:30. Eva's bringing 2 friends with her which will be so nice for her. Our plans will probably just include the pool today and dinner at home. I'm not sure what Maggie will want to have but we have lots of options. 

I would go have a mimosa but want to wait for Maggie to get here before I partake. 

And that's it. I'll post again tomorrow. Happy Monday. It's Monday, right? Later!
