Bored....already? Not Me!





Well, it has been over a week at home. It has been a good week. I have biked a bit and played trivia a lot. Fun times.

I took a few pictures today. In one, you can see a butterfly. Now, trying to get a picture of a butterfly is interesting. I tried hard to get it with its wings open, but they do not open their wings for very long. Then each time a car would pass our house it would cause the butterfly to fly up and go to a different flower. Needless to say, I did not get the shot I wanted. I am going to try to get one before the summer is over. The other pictures are of some of my dad's flowers. My favorites are the irises because they are so fragrant. But daisies are nice too.

Today has been kinda slow. I tried to write more on my novel. Unfortunately I only got about four paragraphs written...but it is good because I think I got a better beginning. A good "hook" so to speak. I just wish I would be more motivated to get down to it and write like for hours on end. I cannot sit still that long. I also took a nice long nap. It was nice.

It is kinda muggy here. Muggy means humid. On my bike ride today I thought it was in the 70s. I was off by ten degrees. Luckily for me there was nice winds. For some reason, I am being totally lazy and hate getting on my bike. I hope to get into a routine.

Tomorrow is softball in Wausau. One of the things I really look forward to each week. Hopefully it will not be a blowout like last week! (the other team beat us 25-10) I like more of a competition. The other team probably felt the same way.

Well, that is all I have! Have a great day and be sure to check out my other posts with the fun pictures from the road trip home.

p.s. The other pic besides the flowers and the butterfly is one of a dragonfly. Very cool little insects but also very hard to take pictures of them!

Cool pictures! I hope you are having fun. I just got an email from Michelle. I was so excited to hear she is expecting a baby boy in August and moving to Ann Arbor. I am sure you will miss her. Take care. I hope you guys win your game. Peace.
