Friday

Went shopping today - got some new clothes for both of us, but not new shoes for me (though we did look).  Stopped by Barnes & Noble, picked up a couple dvds since they were on sale.  Saw After Earth - it was ok.  I don't think I would have paid to see it on the ultrascreen, though.

We came back to the hotel, had a snack instead of dinner, watched some of the tornado news, and I played LOTRO till bedtime.

Tomorrow will be a very busy day.

Thursday

Slept in today, did some laundry, then we took the mother-in-law to get her biopsy results - they were inconclusive, which means more tests in a couple weeks.

After that we hung out at sister-in-law's for a while, went to Long John Silver's for dinner, Dairy Castle for dessert so I could get my Peanut Butter Malt (extra malt).

After which we finished the laundry and played a board game.  We watched some of the weather - severe storms coming in tonight, and I played LOTRO for a little.

Tomorrow we spend the day alone - we're going to the movies probably, and maybe find me some clothes I can wear to graduation on Saturday.  Saturday is graduation, and visitation for her uncle that died yesterday.

Wednesday

Didn't do much today.  Hung out for almost the entire day at the mother-in-law's.  We did play a card game for a little while, some of us anyway, but for the most part it was a 'sit around and do nothing day'.

Kinda boring, actually :)

Anniversary

19 years - hard to imagine.  Of course, 50 is even harder :)

We drove to French Lick via US 231, so we got to see some countryside.  We spent a few hours at the casino, losing about as much as we would have at home.  We drove back on highway 37, and stopped in Bloomington for dinner at Cracker Barrel.

That was the bulk of our day - a long country drive, a casino visit, and back to try and find something on TV to watch :)

Memorial Day

We had the cookout today - hamburgers, hotdogs, baked beans, and fried morels.  Well, I didn't have any, but the rest of the family went nuts over them.  Everybody doted on the new baby (well, he's one now, but still a baby).

We came back to mother-in-law's for a while after, had sandwiches and peach cobbler for dinner, then came back to the hotel, where once again I armwrestled with the computer to play my game.  I finally long, but it took longer to log in than it did to do the festival stuff.

Tomorrow we're taking a scenic drive to French Lick.

Double Header

Not much to blog about for Saturday - we drove in the rain for what seemed like forever.  It was really only about 10 hours.  We checked in, I fussed with the computer to try and play LOTRO, and that was the day!

Today, we slept in till noon.  We went to breakfast at the truckstop with the mom-in-law, then over to the sister-in-law's for a while.  We went to Walmart to do some grocery shopping, and to get some things for us - like a replacement hairbrush that I must have left in Avoca, things like that.

Tomorrow is a cookout back the sister-in-laws.  Not sure what we'll do tomorrow night.  Maybe just hang out.

That's the nice thing about being on vacation :)

Friday

Today went pretty fast, helped by the fact that my boss let me leave about 3 hours early.  I did some of the prep work - feed the birds, started laundry, etc.  Then we went to the comic book store and the book store, grabbed a bite at McDs and then came home and did more laundry.

I packed a little, but we're going to be doing a lot more packing in the morning before we go.  Hopefully we can leave at a halfway decent time!
