We’ve enjoyed another fast week since we last touched base. It was a tale of two halves – the first half was hot but dry while the back half was cooler but rainy. In fact, we received a ton of rain – which we really needed. Through it all, we had plenty of humidity which really helped me sweat out the pounds while exercising…and kept our A/C on all week again. It was the last week of summer vacation for Luke, who will start school and official football practices tomorrow! He split this week between football, work and friends. Abby wrapped up her work year at Wings as she will begin prepping for college next week. She split her time between work, the dogs and her boyfriend (plus she even carved out a little time for her dear old dad as well). Matt had another busy week of working the summer camp during the day at Z-West and the restaurant in Carmel at night. Annie worked a little extra this week and cooked a couple times. For the second week in a row, I walked over twenty miles. I explored a new section of the people trail during my daily walks after work and played on two frisbee golf courses, playing ten rounds of disc golf (or 90 holes). It was another week of dealing with the COVID pandemic as we wore masks at work, when shopping and even when out to eat. Although it was a pain in the arse, if that’s what we need to do to keep our lives somewhat normal – then so be it. Hell, I’ll even where the darn thing to football games, if that’s what it takes to keep ‘em playing… Hello again and welcome back to the Scheu Family Blog.
It was back to work for Ann & I on another hot day. It was a typical Monday – busy and crazy; but hey, it made the day fly by! Justin beat me again on the weight loss competition weigh-in. He creamed me by like five pounds! We gotta quit having birthday parties on the weekend! What’s it been, like 3 straight now? So, lunch was on me at China Buff. That afternoon I began my month end EOC rounds then walked a couple miles out in the heat & humidity – until a storm rolled through town. I got poured on for a few minutes and I got drenched…but it felt amazing! It instantly cooled me down. I picked up Annie and ran her home then headed out to the park for a couple rounds of frisbee golf. My first round was a little rough as I threw a 29 and then my second round, I had a 1-under 26. My back tightened up pretty good on me during the 2nd round so I headed home to get a shower and take some ibuprofen. Gigi brought some produce over that evening and we ate leftovers for dinner – well Ann also ate some of the corn on the cob that Sandy gave us. Abby had a hair appointment in Columbus but didn’t come see us for lunch, opting to go shopping instead. She worked 2nd shift at BWR that evening. Luke had football practice that night. He said they are still not engaging in full contact. I thought they were allowed to begin this week, but maybe the Governator moved it back (it’s hard to keep up with it all). He was pretty tired that night and had some achy muscles. He played some PS4 then called it an early night. Ann & I binge-watched several more episodes of The Ranch before heading on to bed ourselves. Here are pictures from Gigi’s birthday party last weekend.
