Mother's Day In TheCountry

I stayed home Friday night and took myself out to dinner. MRF called and asked me to come out to TheCountry and go with them to the track the next morning. I was so tired, I unfortunately had to disappoint him and stay home.

Saturday I spent most of the day resting, doing laundry, straightening up my apartment, coloring my hair and doing "me stuff" that I just hadn't done in a while. I have gone out to the country every weekend since Easter and I needed a night at home.

While I was at home resting, MRF was at Texas Motor Speedway having the time of his life driving the #40 Nascar 10 laps around the track at speeds in excess of 158mph. His dad captured a lot of it on video and after watching the dash-cam, we noticed that he actually passed 5 cars. He was the last car to enter the track and came in 4th (1 disqualification). I found out later that they had 2 extra tickets and I could have driven too if I had gone.

Saturday about 6pm I finally left for TheCountry and MRF and I went and ate at a little hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant "in town" for dinner. We sat up till about 11:30 watching MythBusters before I fell asleep.

Today we got up and went and ate breakfast at another little hole-in-the-wall "in town" and then sat around the Rec Room and socialized with the rest of the residents. One of the couples brought up their grill and cooked about 50 hamburger patties and had all the fixings ready and fed lunch to just about everyone in the park.

While waiting for lunch few of us went walking around the pond to see the ducks and watch for any mutant frogs. This mama duck was hiding under a bench and hopefully soon there will be some more ducklings around.

After lunch, we watched the 4 hour MythBusters marathon and the DixieChicks on 60 Minutes before I got my stuff together and drove home.

I've been finishing straightening up my apartment, catching up on my blog and email reading and doing a little posting since I got home. My new MRIs for HeadacheGuru are scheduled for tomorrow at 5:00pm. My mom will be here to drive me to and from, since I fully intend to dope myself up on some Xanax.
