Kats’ Korner-Labor Day weekend

Can exhaustion happen because of a weekend? Yes, but a happy exhaustion! Nothing better than being tired from an enormous amount of family time!

The weekend started with our annual Labor Day get together at Kristi and Shane’s, my sister and her husband’s place.

There is always a lot of talking, laughter, and good food! We have started dividing into teams and playing games. Kristi is pretty creative. We never know what we are in for!

My favorite game of the day was the Marr family history. Kristi had chosen several questions for me, and my siblings, Angie and Jeff, to answer. I did win, but I also credit the win with being the oldest child. I also think it is important to know as much about your family as possible, and pass it on to your children. My kids have heard many stories over the years!

It was also special because we were all together at the annual summer get together for the first time in a while.

What’s next?

Summit Lake here we come! Jeff and I, along with Justin and his fiancé and her son and Whitney and her fiancé, all decided to go camping.

I haven’t spent a weekend with both of my kids in a long time. I think the last time all of us camped together Whitney was 6 years old, maybe 5. I am not sure.

We had a great time!

Then, in the early morning hours, a storm came through. I should say three storms came through.

And, what is a storm without wind? I thought our tent was going to cave in. At least if it flooded, our air mattress could be a floating device on the lake!

Justin’s tent suffered a little damage, but didn’t blow away.

We took our dog, Sox, along. He didn’t like the storm. He had never been in the outdoors during one. He was glad to come home.

We took the boat out fishing. We didn’t catch any fish, but we had a great time. I love to go on boat rides. Summit Lake is beautiful. I enjoy taking in the scenery.

I do wish they would spend money on better bathrooms though, and a shower would be nice!

We were all exhausted when we left, but it was a weekend worth being exhausted for.

I wonder about Dennis Rodman. Why is he going to North Korea? He calls Kim Jong Un, the leader of North Korea, his friend.

Why would anyone want him for a friend? The man kills people, and is constantly threatening harm to the United States.

Maybe there is more to this than meets the eye. After all, in my opinion, Dennis Rodman is a bit of a nut. Maybe that is why they are friends, if that is true. They are both nuts, and on top of it, a bit psychotic.

I doubt he is going to accomplish anything constructive from visiting him, but who knows? Crazier things have happened.

Thought for the Day: There is still some summer left. Enjoy it. The snow will fly soon enough.

Have an amazing time, until we meet again!
