Good Morning Sunshine
What a beautiful morning, the sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky, and just a light breeze on the lake....about 60 degrees on the thermometer outside my window. The birds are gathering for their breakfast, but I have had to chase a cat away twice....and this time it's a different cat than was here before. The other cat pounced on a bird (I originally thought it was a chipmunk) and ran off with it in his mouth last night. I was so upset...and now having another cat here this morning twice....I'm really worried...and feel bad that I'm the one making them come here in the first place....but I think the good out weights the bad.
Yesterday was a great day. I got up at my normal time, then ran the vacuum, and started preparing stuff for a salad, and put the chicken in the oven to bake. I had everything in order and was just playing on the computer when Mary arrived from Breezy Point about 11:25. Then about 20 minutes later her sister Terri arrived. I think from that point on, the chatter never stopped. I can't remember when the three of us were together to talk!!! I gave them a tour of the place, and we looked at my remodeling scrapbook, and ate lunch, took pictures and talked some more. Terri and Mary remember being here when they were little, sleeping in the one room boathouse....laughing and telling ghost stories...and giggling some more. We also remember our parents playing cards at the dining room table and making popcorn for them....both in the city and at the cabin.
This all continued till about 2:30, when the two of them figured they better get going as it was going to be a two-hour drive back home.
I loved having them here, but I hated saying goodbye. We are now planning a visit with cousin Louie the end of July, and hope we can get a few more Schoenecker cousins to join us.
I have to leave in a few minutes to go to Albany to my Scheiber cousin's sod farm to pick up those 6 rolls we need for the entry way. I'm not dressed yet, so I better start moving fast. Love and Prayers, m
