So Much FUN!!

OMG we had so much fun frolicking on the beach yesterday. LOL! I've not seen that many people crowded into such a smallish place in a long time, but everyone was so happy just to be out in the SUN. Even me, with my deathly pale skin, my penchant for burning in the moonlight...I couldn't have been more ecstatic about being out, and swimming, and being so free. Jujubear had a fantastic time. She's a natural in the water, always has been...just like her mom. She could swim without assistance when she was 2, and had done away with life preservers and floating devices by the time she was 3. I've always given her that freedom in the water because I recognize her potential and capabilities, while others have had heartattacks, including her dad. So we spent the whole afternoon jumping waves, body surfing, and then drying off in the warm sun. It was amazing! Well, I could have done without the sand.
Of course Juju couldn't leave without going on a ride or two, and she used her tickets wisely. She's such a mature child, yet she still has a few moments of being a little girl. She was very sure she wanted to go on a big girl ride, but she stood and watched it for a few moments, and she became quite frightened, and made the decision, all on her own, that she just wasn't ready for that. Poor baby...too big for the little girl rides, and still too young for most of the big girl rides. She's so...in-between right now. And I love her so much!
I got to spend some time with Mr & Mrs D afterwards...Juju was so happy to see her "family" again. I guess that will never go away...that we've come to a point that transcends "he said she said" to a place where we just are, almost like we're suspended, and timeless. It's odd, but he's relentless, and I can't run from him because he'd just come after me, grab me by the ankle, and haul me kicking and screaming back into his life. How do I know this? He's already done it once. LOL. Plus we have our project that we're working on, and his procrastination is killing me. I'm suspecting I'll have to go rape thru his house and just get the damn paperwork myself. Just like old times...MWAHAHAHA!
He wanted to introduce me to his daughters, which was redundant because we'd already met at his "coronation". But I'm glad I passed because good ole Brother...yes THE BROTHER, has apparently been calling me all sorts of wild juicy names in the past few months since "The Incident". I'll give Mr a bit of time to address the situation on his own, but this one does not go unaddressed. After everything, I certainly don't deserve the awful names he's assigned to me, and spread to Mr's daughters. No wonder Bubbles looked at me with a crooked eye the last time we were there. Shit, it's a wonder he was even civil.
This weekend is shaping up to be amazing fun. Friday is the free concert, Saturday is the Highland Games, and Sunday, my brother is performing at the Balloon fest. Every morning and evening, the beautiful balloons will fly over my house, and Juju and I will be outside to wave and cheer. Next weekend of course, Malcolm and I will be partying on Saturday. New crowd, should be interesting. But then, just having his company is always a joy, and finding another couple or single to add into our evening will just be a bonus to our already amazing evening. I hope to see lots of my friends at the festival this weekend, and hope to meet many more new ones next weekend when Malcolm and I debut at our first swing party together.
