Good morning! Your picture reminds me of the tile mural we picked out for my kitchen wall. Instead of apples it has eggs but we do have sunflowers. Since I have only seen the picture/mural twice I might even have milk bottles but either way it reminded me of it. Slept better last night, I was only up once around 3:00 and I fell back asleep after my middle of the night bathroom check. August is still so much summer to me. I guess because regular school does not start here until after Labor Day. I find the winters are longer and the summer shorter, which is depressing. I just wish we had more "real" spring and fall.


I did not get out of my office until

Good Morning,

I honestly can't believe that it's August 1! This summer is flying by. They always do but this one seems even more so. It's been kind of a weird summer. Not sure why but it doesn't seem like I've enjoyed the season as much as I would have liked. I don't know quite what it is but it's kind of an unsettled feeling about it all. I do always look forward to the fall and what it brings.

So what's up for your Friday? Work, work and more work. My co worker was out yesterday. She left Wednesday for a doctor's appointment as she wasn't feeling well and she called in yesterday and told the boss that she had to go for a test. Usually she calls me during the day and lets me know what's going on but I didn't hear from her and my call to her went to her answering machine. Our boss had been in the office until 2AM on Wednesday night cleaning up a lot of work and he wasn't real thrilled to be without a secretary. They never have a back up plan if someone needs to be out. They really should have a per diem to fill in in these situations and to fill in for the overflow of work. She does the work for a partner, and 3 associates plus puts out all the billing. A lot of work for one person. I just hope she's OK-were the other half of each other's brains most days and one 1/2 is missing it can be a dangerous situation! Fabulous plans ? Anything fun planned for your weekend? DD and her BF will be arriving tomorrow AM as it's DH's sister's birthday and one of the grandnephew's 9th birthday so there is a birthday celebration scheduled for DH's nieces house tomorrow afternoon.

Better get moving. I have grass to water and snacks to pack. DH's brain is not retaining anything these days. I thinks he's so consumed with negativity over this job of his that he doesn't seem to retain anything anyone says. DS told him that he hadn't watered the dry patches and since he was watering the garden to please water the dry spots. He couldn't remember, went outside came back in and ended up no one did it. It's going to be another dry day so need to attend to that.

Hope everyone has a fabulous Friday!

Oh, my...August already? Where did half the summer go already? Actually I know...with my step mom here for 5 weeks, I can't really do what I want so I call those my lost summer weeks. I love the picture of the daisies Patty...I love daisies! I do look forward to fall

I feel as though I'm saying good-bye to so much late this summer, mainly life as I've known it much of over

Oh my, Rhonda! So sorry you are going through all this and now you have to wait for results of a biopsy. I had no idea it took so long to get biopsy results. Of course you are in my thoughts and prayers and I am sending positive healthy vibes your way. Nice to see the dr step up and give you some samples. Some are so "cheap" with them.


That is a lot of going back and forth to the attorney and meeting with Tim. Glad to hear things are "friendly" for Rob's sake.


Hope you have a nice time tonight at the dance/river boat cruise. What kind of cake are you making?


I will be thinking of you....


Grace

Rhonda,

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers with the biopsy. Having to wait on these biopsies is so nerve racking along with all the life changes you're going through right now.

Thinking about you and sending extra big hugs your way. I hope you enjoy the cruise.

Hugs,

Susan
