Boy, have I been busy!

Funny, when things get the busiest in my life I post the least. Then when things slow down I write posts that start off with “Boy, have I been busy!”

Like this one. Boy, have I been busy! I think it will be easier to go backwards, chronologically.

Sunday was Morgan’s 4th birthday. We had her birthday party at the spray ground off of Melrose, between Council and Rockwell. We had second thoughts about the location after having an issue with another “kid” (I use parenthesis because he was about 13 and dumping buckets of water on the heads of three and four year old little girls …), but after swiftly dealing with that we didn’t have any other issues.

The reason we wanted to have a simple birthday party for Morgan on Sunday was because our friend and co-worker Emily got married on Saturday. Susan, I, and a bunch of our friends all volunteered to help out with the wedding. My buddy Tim Dog and I were there at 8am to unload tables and chairs (Johnny and Paula’s boyfriend KJ helped out as well) and we were there at 2pm loading them back up. Unloading wasn’t so bad, as it was only 80 degrees and everything needed to go downhill. Moving everything uphill in 100+ degree temperatures sucked much worse.

The day before that, Friday, was Susan’s birthday. We didn’t do much Friday night because Susan was exhausted. She was exhausted because, on Thursday night, she got home from Washington DC after midnight.

All of this explains why last night after dinner, I laid down and slept for 10 hours, got up for one, then went back to bed and slept for two more.
