Boat Parties & 21st Birthday

This weekend was a whirlwind.
My husband's best friend JF turned 21.
It's kind of funny seeing that Bud is 27, but when you hang out with college age people more often than not having a friend who is 21 is pretty normal.
So as tradition has it we took JF downtown at midnight to celebrate his birthday and as I promised I was Designated Driver for the night.
I don't condone getting drinking to get drunk.  I don't think drinking is wrong in moderation.
But as college "kids" do JF drank to get drunk.  One minute he seemed fine and then next he was a mess.
I successfully & safely returned him home around 3:30 a.m.
We came home and went to bed, exhausted.
JF, MS, Me & Bud at 6 Lounge.  Happy Birthday JF!  Apparently, the drinks were really strong here, I joked that my drink was watered down...I was drinking water.

Today we were up at 10:30 and out the door at noon to help JF finish celebrating his birthday.  He had rented a party boat and after a 40 minute drive we were at the lake and ready to soak up the sun.  It turned out to be a beautiful day, 85 degrees, partly cloudy & perfect.
There were 28 people on the boat and we just spent the afternoon talking and swimming and enjoying each others company.
But by 6pm when we all got home we were exhausted.  Bud has stopped by Sonic to grab us a quick dinner (so I wouldn't have to cook) and at 7:15 we decided a nap was in order.  Yes 7:15 pm we decided to take a nap.  At 8:30 pm we were up again and now I can get everything ready for the week.
Finish folding laundry.
Load up my sewing machine for the class I'm taking tomorrow night (intro to sewing).
Dishes.
Straighten up everything else.
& Bed time by 10:30pm.  I have 1 hour to finish this list.  It's doable.  I'm sleepy, but I'll feel better once I get all of this done.
I hope everyone had a blessed weekend.
