Ever have one of dem days when you know you have to get things done but just don’t wanna get out of bed? I’m sitting here on my bed, wrapped up with a comforter and listening to talk radio (C’mon Bob Frantz!) I gotta go to Kohl’s to get some new sunglasses, stop by for an appointment and get a new football for when my nephews come over this weekend.
That takes me to this Saturday that I’ve been looking forward to for several weeks. I’m getting my two nephews and we’re gonna have the first “Annual Boyz Day”. I have the day all planned out. We’re going to the “Great Lakes Science Center” for a couple of hours. We’re gonna eat at “Dave & Busters” and of course spend tons of taawd’s money at the games then we’re gonna come back and have a little fun throwing around the football and frisbee. One of my nephews can throw the football great, but he’s still a little wobbly catching it. The other one can catch like a champ but can’t throw it. It cracks me up! It makes for an interesting game of throw-around. You can believe I’ll post a follow-up on how that day goes. I can guarantee I’ll have a couple of stories. The boys love D&B’s. I’ll not be able to tear them away from the games. It’s my birthday present to both of them. They already have every toy they want or could ever want.
The last time I took one of them there, we ordered lunch and without any hestitation when the waiter asked what he wanted, he said “shrimp cocktail”, what 9 year old you know goes straight for the shrimp cocktail? That’s my nephew
With the forecast for this weekend, I don’t want them inside all Saturday long. Heck, I don’t want to be inside all Saturday long either. Again, it’ll be a blast and I’ll blog how it went! Say a little prayer for me…
