Good Morning and Happy Sunday! It's a bright summer day so far here in the Fort. Fingers crossed that it doesn't get too hot just yet. I wouldn't mind a nice thunderstorm and have to remember that it is July! It's supposed to be hot. How did it get to be July already anyway?! What have we been up to for the past couple of weeks? We took a trip! Just as we did in '19 to check out colleges for Amanda, we did the same for Serra as this is the summer before her Senior year. She spent many months researching various schools, taking into consideration so many factors that she needed a spreadsheet to organize them all. She...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The sun is bright in the sky today and bathed my room in wonderful rainbows through my prisms. Temperatures are still cool with not quite as much rain falling as last week. Not our usual June weather that normally hits hard in the nineties by now. I'll take the cooler temperatures any day! I would love to say that it was a wild and crazy week for us. Not so. Routine reigned supreme as we took care of household chores, organized some of Amanda's luggage and had company. Daddy came over for a few days to celebrate his and Amanda's birthdays. We watched movies and he got a lot of exposure to sports with baseball...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Cool and cloudy in my little corner of the Fort so far today. We haven't had as much steady rain as we did last week which the girls appreciate. I'm glad the temperature has stayed down instead of jumping directly into the boiling hot days of summer. It is odd weather for June that I will enjoy while it lasts! What did we do this week? Serra dove in deep to her college prep work. She has her transcripts and SAT scores printed and wrote a rough draft of a college resume with her activities over the years. She currently holds a 3.99 and wants to break a 4.0 with her coursework next year. Amanda's...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! June weather has been an odd one so far with lots of rain. I even made soup for dinner yesterday because of the cooler temperatures. Personally, I love it and know we could use the moisture. Unlike the massive thunderstorm I slept through last month these storms have been the gentle kind of showers that I love. Summer may not be in full swing with the weather, but it is with the girls' schedules. Sleeping late, gaming and the occasional jaunt around town with each other or friends is keeping them occupied. Truly I don't mind it at all. Life and our list of summer tasks that needs to be done will kick back up...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! A little slow this morning with a late night as getting to sleep after the baseball game took a while. Crazy as that was, I still woke up at six like clockwork. With the sun shining today it makes the storm we drove back up through a wild memory. Even though the pea sized hail was super loud on the car it was soft enough to not cause any damage to my beast. What have we been up to this week? Both girls now have no rhythm as school is finished for the year and I let Serra stay home the last week since there was nothing going on. She always does better physically and...
