I haven't been able to get my thoughts together enough to post the past couple weeks but, I'm going to give it a whirl.

Hopefully this past week, was the busiest week I'll have this summer and if not, I hope that whatever it is that causes the busy-ness, will just be FUN!  I must say though, this past week has been a lot of fun. 

Our son graduated on Thursday and his graduation party was Sunday.  Both were great! 

I woke up Sunday morning to find the electricity was out!  We don't even have water with no electricity.  That would have made for a very interesting day.  It was back on by 6:30 AM, so my worry was for nothing.

There was a huge turnout on Sunday.  We served 70 hamburgers, 40 hotdogs, I lost count of how many pounds of potatoe salad I dished up, along with several other dishes and not a single piece of cake was left.  AND thank heavens, the rain held off.  It was a bit alarming a couple of times.  The wind picked up and the sky looked as though it could open up and pour at any given moment.  We only got a few sprinkles!  I was so grateful :)

Our neighbor who is a photographer showed up with his camera and took what felt like hundreds of pictures.  Most of them were candid shots but, we did several family photos!!  It's rare that all of our children are in the same place at the same time, so I was very happy that he did that for us.  I can't wait to see the finished products! 

Between the home improvement projects, the ceremony, preparing food, keeping our 3 yr. old granddaughter for the weekend and then the party....I was pooped yesterday and had a self imposed day of rest!  It was almost ruined by the cable being out. haha.  Reading would have involved more effort that I was willing to give.  I was saved at around 1 PM, so there was a lot of HGTV and Food Network on my bedroom television yesterday. 

My youngest daughter has returned to Florida, safe and sound.  I feel like I barely got to visit with her while she was here but, she was able to spend more time with her friends than usual since I was tied up with other things.  So that was good for her.  

I think my life will return to normal now...whew!  I can just sit back and enjoy my clean windows :)
