Lakitis

Lakitis: the state one is in when all thoughts, dreams, actions, and conversations involve activities that take place at a large body of water, specifically a lake. Symptoms include: daydreaming about lake activities during work, mentioning the lake or lake activities in most conversations even when the conversation does not involve such references, waking after sleep believing you are on a boat (more severe cases often cause the subject to believe they are even experiencing a slight rocking feeling), and while working, working out, or even doing daily activities practicing moves like those involved with wakeboarding, waterskiing, or laying out.

Hmmmmm, can you tell where my mind is? I believe I am suffering from all of the above and even this last week have not been wearing make-up or doing my hair or even getting fully dressed as if I were already at the lake. Swimming is better than a shower right? And who needs a towel when you can just lay by the pool and get dry? Unfortunately I have not figured out how to waterski in our pool.

But until time on Lake Powell gets here, this is what I have been doing; I repainted my kitchen with a lot of help from Steve taking down our pot rack and then putting it back up again and from my long time fab friend Shelly (it was even her birthday)!



My inspiration...the color is actually called Lake Blue. I choose it based on the actual color and not the name but I do love the name.


We had a pool fence put in. We're getting used to it and it is easier to have kids around with it in place.
Steve put a tower on the boat with the help of my brother Jared of course:



Anyway, we're on the count down to our first Lake Powell trip, literally counting the days! :-)
