August 26, 2013 Monday Afternoon

Friday night we spent the night watching the weeks worth of One Life To Live on Hulu.com.  Was surprised to read that this is the final episodes for a while and no word as to when new episodes will be back online.  Went to bed around 10 PM after a little lovin.

Saturday morning we were up by 7 AM.  Fed the dogs and gave Vito his shot.  Around 10 AM we went to Stein Garden to buy more bark chips for the front yard. We usually buy the large bark chips and they can be hard to find, much less most expensive.  Bought 25 bags at $6 a piece.  Came home and spread them all out in the front yard to see we could still use another 15 bags to make it look perfect.  Today was to be one of the last days where it was not too hot to do anything outside so we decided to go for a bike ride to the lake front.  I am always so surprised when Tony even agrees to do this.  Took the longest bike ride I think I have ever taken.  Rode from our house down North Avenue and then down the hill to Bradford Beach.  Had a hamburger and strawberry margarita while Tony had a hamburger and beer at one of the beach shanties.  Sat and watched the volleyball players for a while.  About a half hour later we got back on our bikes and headed south along the lake front all the way to the Summerfest festival grounds.  Rode around the entire festival grounds to the river, which is about as far south as you can ride.  We then headed back home along the lakefront and then getting on the bike trail which heads towards our house.  Got home around 3:30 PM feeling tired and sore, but feeling great just the same.  Was so amazed I could even do such a long bike ride.  Rested for a while as we watched TV and soon it was time to feed the dogs supper.  After we fed the dogs we left a little while later to go to a block party and see a friends band.  The block party was not very busy and the food was nothing that we had an interest in, so we left and when to a Mexican restaurant on the south side of town.  Never did see the friends band.  Got home around 8 PM feeling like I had really made the most of a day.  Felt great.  Spent the night watching the movie Would You Rather.  It was a movie like the Saw series.  I loved it and sure hope there is a part 2 or more.  Would make a great series if it did any money at the movie theaters.  Went to bed around 10 PM and slept like a baby all night.

Sunday morning we were up by 7 AM.  Fed the dogs and gave Vito his shot.  Spent a little time reading the newspaper before we left the house around 9 AM to pick up Tony's mom and go have breakfast.  Had a nice breakfast at our usual Greek family restaurant and then we went next door to Steins and bought 15 more bags of bark chips for the front yard.  Dropped off the mother in law and then headed home.  Stopped at a fruit ranch for some fresh fruit and continued home along the lake front.  Got home and after spreading the new bark chips we spent the afternoon just watching TV, since it was now getting quite hot outside.  Made steaks and corn on the cob on the grill for supper.  Spent the night watching Big Brother and shows off the DVR.  Was so mad when I got up this morning and we had forgot to watch the music awards that were on.  Damn!   Went to bed around 10 PM after a round of lovin.

This morning I was up by 7 AM.  Fed the dogs, gave Vito his shot and soon Tony left for work.  Spent the morning reading the newspapers, doing 3 loads of laundry which included all the bedding, and watched TV.  It is very hot in Milwaukee and will be the rest of the week.  In the 90s all week.  Not happy with the heat.  Drove to Wendy's for a chicken sandwich on my way to Radio Shack to look for cables for the security camera.  Radio Shack is so damn expensive and I decided to buy what I needed on the Internet instead.  Went to Walgreen's and picked up my prescriptions and headed home.  Bought the cables I needed on the Internet and put them on the credit card.  Just going to make some salads and a frozen pizza for supper tonight.  Will most likely spend the night watching TV from the DVR finishing off the night with the TV show Under The Dome. 

Here is a pic of the house with all the new bark chips.
