Yesterday Hubby and I went garage-sailing for a little while, then out to eat, then took a trip north of here to visit a motorcycle gear shop and two thrift stores. It was total heaven for him. =D The only things that coulda made it better for him would have been a trip to the flea market (which I was not in the mood for) or an actual motorcycle show. Alas there was no such event nearby. We didn’t actually buy much but that’s not the point. It’s the browsing he enjoys.
Then - then it was my turn! I wanted to play tennis!
Actually, he did too. He enjoyed playing the week before and had actually asked me if we were going to play again this weekend. Given that I’ve played almost every single day since then, my answer was pretty easy to predict.
We put in a full hour. We both actually wanted to play longer but there were clouds rolling in and thunder and lightning almost above us so we had to stop. We gathered up the balls and less than four minutes later it started to pour and kept raining until well after dark, so we were done for the day.
Today was Kevin’s awards banquet for band. It’s a big deal that everyone gets dressed up for and we were so proud of him. He’s going to be a senior next year and today it was announced that he was chosen as Section Leader for the drum line. Woohoooo Kevin!!
After the banquet, it was getting close to dark-time but Hubby and I both wanted to play tennis again! We got an hour in - but during the last 15 minutes or so we were both straining to see the ball coming at us! Again, we probably would have played longer but there are no lights at the courts. Which, we agreed, makes no sense. But… given that we were basically trespassing there, it’s kinda hard to complain. =D

WTG Kevin
Wow, what an active weekend! I keep looking for ways to get my hubby to be more active but for now I keep hitting my head against a brick wall. Can that count for exercise?
Good for you!!
Hi Eileen!
Thanks your your nice comment!! But no i didnt do 2 45 min cardio workouts, just one. the C25k workout for this week was just 20 minutes, so I doubled it to 45 minutes…unfortunately I dont have more than 90 minutes a day (if even!) to devote to exercise haha!
Happy Monday!

LOL
I’m picturing you straining to see a ball coming at you and thinking you’re lucky it didn’t smack you on the forehead! Good to hear you’re having so much fun with tennis. Congrats to Kevin! My firstborn baby will be a Junior next year. It’s so surreal!
