Bad Weather Week-End

Blah , the weather has just been gross this past week-end. We arrived to the lake Friday in balmy, breezy, beautiful Spring weather and that was all we were to see of it. Saturday greeted us with cold wind, rain and just pure yuckiness. We didn't even get the boats out to ride or anything. B took the girls down to the dock to fish on Saturday afternoon after the rain stopped (temporarily) and the wind was so bad, they had to come back up almost immediately.(That picture, by the way, is from last Summer- taken from the dock.) We did get to go to our favorite hole-in-the-wall fish camp on Friday night- yum. And there was only 1 live cockroach in the lakehouse, that we saw. We had a few dead ones, but those I can handle. Other than that I would not say that the week-end went well. We got there and found the well house had a busted water pipe in it and water was going everywhere when we turned it on. B repaired it and then had to repair it again. (Standing in a tiny well house trying to work with plumbing is not fun...) It finally stopped and we were able to use the water, but when we took a shower we noticed that water was all over the laundry area floor - it is directly behind the shower. This happened last year, so we just caulked the tub like we did then and thought it would be fine. Nope. When I took a shower Sunday morning, there was a lot of water again in the laundry floor. There has to be a leak in the pipe, inside the wall. So, next time we are going to have to take part of the wall out and repair that, or just use the other shower. We came to the realization that the lakehouse is on it's last leg :sigh:. We both feel that this is the last year we will be able to get out of it (safely, anyway). Hush, CF. It seems to be leaning more and more and it seems to need more repair every time we go there. So, on top of building the new house this year, it looks like we will be building a lakehouse at the end of Summer or beginning of next year. I haven't decided how we will pay for all of it, yet. I am thinking it will have to be some sort of crack-selling business or brothel, but those are both against my religion so I will have to keep brainstorming! We did have some good family time.( Being stuck together in a double-wide all day kind of forces that on you). However, I am ready for the girls to start back to school tommorrow. They have been a little "challenging" this week and week-end. Spending all day almost every day with them has been a blessing, but also a challenge. I need time Monday morning just to be by myself! For now, I am going to go try and "scare up" something to cook for dinner. This should be interesting, not having been to the grocery store in several days.......
