I've been drinking wine since 4pm. Everyone just left and it's almost 8. I would say that's a successful BBQ.

thatgolfb I love your fire pit! We've been working on our our back yard and a fire pit was one of my must haves. Now we just need to get some furniture out there so we can actually enjoy it! I love this one. The 4 chairs that came with it all swivel and rock and have cushions so comfy. We might also get a couple lounge chairs. We really need to landscape the yard. That is our next big project. It is all weeds and is gross. There is a huge tree stump that we need to get taken out but I have a feeling that will be $$$$. My dad said he and H can take a chainsaw to it but that has me like 😲

I guess I am willing to spend the money on something that will long term be something necessary. Once we sod, we can add a play set!

I actually managed to somewhat teach my kid some basic baseball skills today. He was even able to get some hits from some generous pitches (and had some foul tips on a few that I threw a bit harder than necessary). He still has to coordination of a 6 year old, but he did pretty well. I'm an awful coach for newbies, so I'm happy I only made him cry once when he missed and it hit him in the gut. My almost 6 year old plays tee ball and he is just...not good. Like no coordination whatsoever. He loves to play but it is just so hard to watch.

Adding that to the "soon" list.

I liked it! It took me a little while to figure out what kind of book it was, and I think it went on a few chapters too long to try to get the "perfect" resolution, but the writing was so good and I really cared about the characters. For me that is everything. If you have a lot to say about it I would participate in a separate thread about it! I'm not sure enough of us have read it. But I get what you're saying. I was sobbing at the end because I felt Holly's story was just the intermediary between two shitty worlds. But I absolutely love books where you are trying to figure out how characters are related to other characters. Like a fun puzzle. I Loooved The Bone Clocks. I actually really liked the ending too. I would talk about it anytime, even if it's a thread with three people. But Bunny, I wanted to say, if you like books where characters intertwine you should try Ursula Under. It was weird but really interesting.

It's actually tomorrow, but we had yummy lamb for dinner and opened a yummy (hard to find) Pinot. I have a bottle of Iron Horse Wedding Cuvée for tomorrow. My H's birthday is tomorrow too.

Hah GhoatMonket you are my mother. She did instill in me a love of the game so I hope your son picks it up too

H is asleep on the couch and he yelled at me when I tried to wake him up so... I guess I'll be leaving him there. Enjoy starfishing your bed tonight!

Also I'm curious about where you are @winomite. And how was the Lowcountry boil? I'm near Camden. It was good. The guy who made it polished off a bottle of scotch while making it, so I'm shocked we got to eat it. We'll have fun. I'm from the Lowcountry proper. Camden is definitely more... rural. Lol. Get some BBQ and benne wafers!

MH just went to the guest room because I need the lights on until this wears off a little. He is not amused. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am full and drunk and my mom is taking DD for the night, so once DS is down, I'm getting sexed too.
Honestly, low key, good birthday weekend. Having a Memorial Day birthday can go either way.

My dad said he and H can take a chainsaw to it but that has me like 😲 Good luck!! We've been in our house for eight years and MH comes up with something new to do to the yard every year. He's a high school teacher so he gets bored during the summers (even though he teaches summer school). Needless to say, summer is expensive in these parts lol!

It was weird but really interesting. Adding it to my list. This is basically how I discover all of my favorites. I have something I like, someone else I know (usually my sister) has read it and suggests something I might like based on the original read.

Also, I rode 20+ miles on the bike today and the tops of my legs are burnt.
Not so great in the planning dept.
