I'm back, been MIA

Haven't had my computer turned on since thursday.  Been on the road, picked up Patrece at MPS airport in the evening thursday.  We travelled west to visit my dad and spend a couple of nights with him.  No internet access at his place.  Saturday am, we joined the WSP coffee group in MN.  The group met as a place where dogs are welcome, there were about a dozen or so of us there and 8 or 9 canines.  The dogs vaired in size from chihuahua to grey hound.  As a group the dogs were very quiet, could have been a regular yappy session, but each dog was getting personall attention, every so often, some of the dogs got shifted to another lap and the doggy lovin' session continued.

Yesterday Patrece and I drove part of the north shore of Lake Superior.  We stopped at Gooseberry Falls state park, walked the trail around the 3 layers of the falls.  Next a short journey to Split Rock Lighthouse.  Toured the lighthouse and other buildings, then walked the steps to the shore of Lake Superior.  There is approx a 100 ft cliff from the lighthouse to the shore.  The steps, all 171 of them, gave us a good workout.  I could feel it in my thighs and glutes when we got to the top.  Even woke up a little stiff this morning.  The kinks worked out quickly.  Watching the trees, water and all the other sights in the fresh air induced and early sleep last night.  Well at least early for me.

The dogs accompanied us on this 4 day adventure, they seem glad to be home and napping on the sofa today.  I know that if I were to mention the word "walk", they would be at the door in a heartbeat.  Have a wonderful week everyone, remember chat time this evening.  This is lovely fall weather here in northern MN, mid 60's and sunny, couldn't ask for better for mid October.  Hugs

Unacceptable!  Just down right unacceptable!  I mean who on here actually has a life besides here?

Totally be sarcastic.  Of course we do not expect you to be on here every sec of everyday.  Now we may miss you but we know that LIFE happens.  Sounds like it has been all GOOD.  That is awesome.  You 2 enjoy each others company.  We will be right here when you get back. 

I will be here, but for some stupid reason I signed up to work like 1 days in a row.  40h at FT job and then the rest in my PT job.  Guess it sure will help pass the 2.5 months that I have til surgery!!!  Dont worry I do not plan to do this again.  I want my body in chip chop shape.  After this I am gonna only pick up 1 extra day a week for my POOL job.
