Lake Report

A June Miracle! DL fixed my vacuum cleaner. I was able to get home from a long day on the lake and get RIGHT to the good stuff. The house was filthy. It isn't anymore. Catch this- I even have clean sheets on ALL 3 beds and one crib. All 3 toilets are clean. All floors are clean. Everything has been properly dusted and put away. Laundry is doing.

Love the lake, I really do. Except I have to do the same cleaning extravaganza at the lake (dad's insistence). Then I get to turn around and come home and do it.

What's fun is the BLM got grounded for the first time last night. And do you know why? Because it was dinner time and I tried to get her to sit down and eat. She RAN into the house yelling how it wasn't fair. IT'S JUST NOT FAIR. We ignored it until dinner was over. I yanked her up by her arm and made her have a 5 minute time out. Then I shut her in her room.

After that, I found that she had thrown off all of the bedsheets on her bedding in the other room. Oh, this does not fly. After time out was over, I asked her to come and tell me what happened and she said, "It was an accident." I told her that was fine, but she was grounded and couldn't play with Grant any more until tomorrow. SHE LOST IT. She cried for a good hour. She told me she wanted me to ground her FOREVER. It was dramatic. I don't know where this drama comes from. Seriously.

I got her bathed and in bed and we settled down and watched, "Ginganna Jones and the Waders of da Wost Ark". She fell promptly asleep.

Today we were invited to the beach with some friends. We had a great time.

I do have one ugly. You know that sunscreen that comes in a stick? I put it on my head. I missed some spots on my forehead. I have white strips. That's going to be pretty.
