Summer Fun


The kids had fun swimming at my sister's pool yesterday. I think that's a floating chlorine dispenser that they use in their pool.

I've made plans to meet with a friend September 20th to celebrate her birthday a week late. She was busy next weekend, I was busy the next, so it will be the week after. I don't know where the time goes. I should probably start planning Christmas get togethers before everyone gets booked up! Although I'm not really a long term planner, preferring to let things take their natural course.

It's M's sister's birthday today, so we're celebrating at his mom's place this evening. I just heard on the news that Michael Jackson would have turned 51 today.

It rained a lot last night and is overcast today. I may still be able to go for a quick walk. K's getting a haircut as part of getting ready for school! M and L enjoyed a long tour of a local university yesterday. They learned a lot and it's on the short list, its benefits being that it is close to home and has suitable academic programs, although it's likely not L's first choice.

Planning for Christmas? Wow! You are very organized. However... you know, that's a good idea. I think I'll start putting together my Holiday Newsletter. :-)

SoccerMom, it is a cute bear. Of course, you do love bears!

Kay, ..holiday newsletter! Well, I'm sure we'll soon start seeing Xmas decorations in the stores. I did just buy a 2010 weekly planner today!

No! You said "Christmas".... :-(

I know it's going to sneak up on us. I'm not ready to start thinking about that yet. LOL!
