Wow where has the summer gone. I can't believe it's almost August.
I started summer by falling in the lake on Memorial Day with
my phone in my pocket. I hadn't gotten it into the waterproof case and into the
Jet Ski compartment before the Jet Ski flipped sending Don and I into the
lake. Really was pretty funny, except for
my cell phone. Accidents happen and thankfully I not only had insurance for a
full replacement but I got upgraded as well so it worked out better than
expected.

This summer our project has been gutting the master bath and
redoing all the drywall, removing a build out and putting in a new shower/tub
combo plus replacing the cabinets, counters, tile floor and toilet. The plumbing was redone as well. It looks great and took roughly 6 weeks to
do. We hired the plumber's, tiler's and
drywall experts but did the rest ourselves.
We also tackled the garden boxes this year by not just
weeding and planting but we also put down landscape fabric and mulch. Everything is growing like crazy this
year. We have lots of tomatoes, peppers,
and blueberries. The grape plant is
growing like crazy too but I'm not seeing any fruit yet. Soon it'll be time to
make and can up salsa and homemade spaghetti sauce and roast up the peppers.
First harvest today
End of August we fly to Atlanta for Dragon Con. I can't wait to see all our friends again.
One of our friends who live in the area just finalized their adoption for their
2 boys. I'm thrilled that when we see
each other I can congratulate them all in person.
There are a ton of celebrities and artists
I'm excited to see this year so I'll be standing in a lot of lines for
panels/photos this year and Stan Lee leading the parade is going to be awesome!
That’s our summer so far.
