Weekend

Saturday Fairplay had a tournament scheduled to start at noon. Therefore to get done before noon we had to tee off a 8 am. But first we had to meet for breakfast. To get this all accomplished, the alarm went off at 5:30. This is supposed to be my day to sleep in. Oh, well. We got in our 18-holes and went home to laundry and grocery shopping and all the fun Saturday stuff that needs to be done. I went to church at the 6 pm service so I could sleep in on Sunday.
On Sunday we were invited to a 40th anniversary party for a couple we became friends with when we lived in the Scribner area. Janice also worked in the Lyons Nursing home when Mom was there. They have 5 girls and 19 grandchildren. No way I could keep all of the grandkids straight. The youngest girl lives in Idaho and wasn't there. We did a lot of stuff with this couple and one other couple in the 3 years we lived there. It was nice to catch up on their lives. Jerry didn't get to go as he had to take off for Ohio early on Sunday.
On the way home I decided to drive out to see how Joe's housebuilding was coming. The house is all framed out and ready for a roof. Angie and Abby were filling the block retaining wall with gravel and Joe was moving dirt. It seems to be coming along ok. They will have a real nice view of the lake when it is done. Jacob can go fishing whenever he feels like it. We walked through it and they showed me what was going to be what. Will be real nice. By the way, I have never seen Angie so dirty.
When I got home I took in the laundry, made beds, mowed the lawn, watered flowers, made peanut butter bars for the golf ladies NWAGA tournament tonight (weather permitting), had a "Healthy Choice" dinner out of the freezer, and watched Raising Helen on tv. This was my "day of rest?"

How often to you make those bars?

The PB bars are requested at almost every golf event that is pot luck. I make them a lot in the summer time, but not so much in the winter. Oddly enough Jerry doesn't like them because they use chunky pb and he doesn't like nuts.

You need to find something WW-friendly! :)

Good to hear Janice & Doug, and Joyce & Larry are doing well. Maybe we could visit or meet up with Joyce or Larry sometime you are in Lincoln.
