I know I know I keep saying this but I LOVE SUMMER! I love the sounds, smells, (when I can smell, my cold has left me with no taste or smelling abilities), the activities, I even love the heat. Today I even road my bike to work! Now I am hanging out at home waiting for Mark to come home. He's at a job they were told them they have to finish today...so that's more overtime. Which will make up for Saturday because he is taking off early. Seems I agreed (I did agree, but I didn't realize it was this Saturday, I probably was only 1/2 listening) to go with him to a NHRA drag race event. My hubby is a race anything nut. A guy at one of the gravel pits had tickets to some sort of carquest tent so we do get food~and get to see "stuff" and we get a goodie bag. Oh joy! No really my husband works a ton and rarely asks to do these things because they are expensive. So this is his reward. And I love spending time with him so that's ok.
Eric called me from the Brewers/Yankees game last night. He was in Wisconsin and wanted to let me know he was coming over to sleep. This was at 9:00 last night. It had finally cooled off in this house enough to sleep so I was just about asleep. He comes into town more that his girlfriend is home from school for the summer. He also visits his many crazy friends. I remember being 20 and single and free...I am glad he's enjoying life...it's the time to do it...plus he works a lot too. Being an assistant department manager means he works a lot.
Next week is our towns yearly fest. It's a BIG deal round these parts. With bands, craft fair, games, carnival, a huge father's day parade. I signed up to shuttle folks to the carnival...I get paid for 4 hours on Friday night to drive an air conditioned coach van....who knows maybe I'll get tipped, if not my hourly driver pay will do ... especially since I get people watch, one of my favorite activities!
Liz is bored...she's just so bored...I told her my normal answer to that....enjoy the boredom for someday you will be working for a living...and then you'll look back at these days and :::sigh:::she's growing up so fast ... she's will be a junior next year...my baby!
Time to water the growing living things! bye!

I love the summer too. My daughter never whined that she was bored - I always found something for her to do (like clean the bathroom) so she learned to self-entertain young!

I don't like the heat of summer but love the season. Johnny and I have to do our fun things before it gets too hot. Geez, I remember when heat didn't bother me at all. Seems like it bothers us as we get older though. Love your little butterfly.
Hugs..Barb
