Friday Cocktails - July 22, 2022

Friday has rolled around again, which means it is time for Friday Cocktails! Last night was travel day and it was a long drive let me tell you. It of course is all worth it as we have several things lined up to do and then a free day or two just to try and do all the thing we want to.

Any road trip with my brother is always fun. He sits in the back seat so he can relax and feel like he is being chauffeured around. Doesn’t matter how long the drive is, he’s in the back. His smelly feet either between the two seats on the console or on the passenger side between the door and the seat. Either way I’m getting the full force of his stank feet.

He asks for food and the bathroom every five minutes because it drives his wife up a wall. She hates stopping and I swear the moment we pull out of the drive he starts with his “I’m hungry.”, “Are y’all gonna feed me.” ” I need to pee”, and “Are we there yet?” She’s ready to punch him by the time we get to where we’re going. You can’t put the snacks next to him because he will eat them all.

He is the most annoying person to travel with and I love it. I wouldn’t want to travel with anyone else. The kids love traveling with him as well. He always had some remark to make or something stupid to do just when it seems like everyone has had enough.

None of us have been to Nashville before other than passing through so this will be a treat for everyone. The kids are going to love it. I will share pictures when I take them. I don’t plan on doing to much of that this trip as I want to fully enjoy the experience and be present.

  1. I had a very nice and relaxing week. Got to spend some time with my family and enjoy Summer.

  2. Nothing of import happened this week unless you count the heatwave here, it has been in the mid-nineties all week and I don’t have AC in my room, only a fan so I pretty much lay around like a beached whale for a few hours every afternoon.

  4. My week was pretty normal. Spent time planning my daughter’s bridal shower.
