That must have been fun. My son’s birthday is coming up next week. He’s turning 13. Both my kids will be teenagers. That’s just mind-boggling to me.

Good to hear you managed to find some writing time, even if it’s at the expense of sleep. LOL. The lake outing sounds wonderful! Have a great weekend!

Yay for more writing time, fun with friends, and swimming! I keep telling myself to get up earlier and write…but my lazy body just rolls over and goes back to sleep. *sigh* Have a lovely weekend!

That’s what mine wants to do, too. But if I go to bed earlier, I can get up earlier. Hard to do, but that’s the key. Hope you have a wonderful weekend as well!

Because I’m not a morning person, I say “boo” to waking up earlier 😉 But “yay!” for more writing time 🙂 I guess it’s all just a balancing game. Glad you had a nice time with friends. Enjoy your weekend!

Thanks! The swimming was great. I don’t like getting up earlier, but I like having the extra time so it’s worth it.
