What a wonderful weekend

It is Monday and I am back at work. I so don’t want to be here. I want to have time to rest and recover from the weekend. This weekend was once again just great. We have had the best weekend weather for the past several weekends now. What a wonderful spring we have had.

This weekend it started on the lazy side. I picked my son up Friday after work. We went home and dropped everything off and went to visit Michelle. While there, we played with the Ferrets for a little bit before leaving to go get a pizza. After dinner we went to Barnes and Nobel for a little while. That was the extent of evening since Saturday we had a long day ahead of us.

Saturday Branson had his last soccer game for the summer, we visited his godfather for a little bit, we went looking at BMX bikes since Branson wants to race this summer, we met up with Michelle and played Frisbee and went bowling, went to dinner, then back to Barnes and finally went home to turn in for the evening.

Sunday was a little more laid back. I got up and cooked breakfast and watched a DVD. After that was done we went bike riding along the NLR River Trial. We stopped and watched the model planes being flown and watched the BMX racing for about an hour. Unfortunately, after all of that I had to take Branson home. The evening ended well. I meet up with Michelle again and we hung out and went for a little drive. She is a pretty special woman, fun, funny and good looking.

Sunday nights, after taking Branson home, are so hard. It just so silent without him there and after seeing and hearing him all weekend it makes Sunday night very lonely.

On another note, a good friend of mine, Emily, ran in the Nashville Marathon on Saturday to try to qualify for the Boston Marathon. I have not talked to her yet but checking the results of the race on the net, it looks like she just missed qualifying by 1 minute and 13 seconds. She is going to be heart broken, to have run for hours and then to miss the qualifying time by 73 seconds.
