Yes, I know I haven't blogged in quite some time. Working 10.5 hour days doesn't give me much time to do anything! I do enjoy the job though, or should I say tolerate it! It's a lot more work than I expected, but I am looking forward to winter when my hours should shorten a little bit.
Other than working, I have not been up to much of anything. I usually get home to a nice meal ready for me, thanks to the best husband ever! We eat, take Harry for a nice walk, relax, and hit the hay. Suddenly the alarm is going off and we do it all over again!
Noah is gone tonight bow hunting in Little Falls, so I am trying to decide what to do. I will probably head over to Watkins to see what those guys are up to. Probably no good! Sorry this was a lame blog, but there is just nothing to report. Same old same old! Looking forward to AC & Julie's wedding next weekend, that's for sure! YAY!

Back to the Salt Mines
After a nice 6 week vacation from work, I officially survived my first week back with the Boikes. I was drooled on, licked, kicked, and kissed. By the end of the day my feet felt like they weighed 100 lbs each, but it's a whole lot better now that Drew is back to school. I get to spend my days lugging 12 months Lewie around, while chasing after 3 yr old Charlie. They are some wild kiddos, but so cute that I could never get too mad at them! It's nice to be back in the working world, but miss sleeping in and relaxing by the lake. I guess the time had to come to start bringing in some chedda! We do have a lot of fun, and I'm glad I get to watch these little ones grow everyday!

Stuck in the Middle
This past week I have found myself in a very "in between" kind of place. It's a bit awkward, and I'm not entirely sure what to do with myself. It is my last week off before starting work again Tuesday. I feel as though I should really really enjoy these last few days, as I will be working 40+ hour weeks very soon.
Baseball season has also come to an end. In past years, I always looked forward to baseball being over, and was glad Noah played for a bad team so they never made playoffs. This year took me by surprise! I didn't want it to end! We met so many great people, and I was spending the entire week looking forward to their weekend game(s). This season went almost 2 months longer than past seasons, and it still seemed short. I can't believe they started in April! Playing for Watkins was probably the best thing that has happened for not only Noah, but me too! Since everyone in Annandale is like 90 years old, it's nice to have that group to hang out with only 15 minutes away.
Summer is pretty much over (except for the fact this weekend looks gorgeous and we will spend LOTS of time on the lake), and bow hunting has not yet began, another in between place for us. Noah has spent a few days up in LF putting up deer stands. Bow season officially begins in 2 weeks, and we're looking forward to spending some time in the woods together. I am even going to attempt to do some gun hunting in November! I'm so excited.
As much as I love summer, I am really excited for winter. I didn't think I'd ever say that! I'm not excited for the cold, but the ice fishing! It's going to be so great to walk out the back door and drill some holes. Have to pee? Hungry? No biggie. Just walk back in the house! If Noah is out by himself and gets hungry (weird), I can hop on the snowmobile and bring him a hotdog!
So anyways, being stuck in the middle isn't the worst thing in the world I guess, it's a time to relax and look forward to the next adventures in life. Noah and I are just really bad at not "doing" anything. We must always have something going on or a place to be. We are really excited to spend the weekend on the lake and having fun!
