Busyness

Isn't it crazy how our expectation of how things are going to go and how they actually go are two different things. Summer is here. The days are nicer and yet I feel like I am running non stop. I clean houses which is fine but I do a vacation rental that has been incredibly busy. Then we have had weddings and birthday parties, graduation for my brother and even a baby shower. July is looking better. Today is another busy one but with the promise of a down Sunday and a wonderful 4th of July. I LOVE 4th of JULY. One of my favorite holidays. Then on Tuesday we take Jim to the airport. Praise the Lord it isn't another 6 am flight. The kids can actually come. Then we will go to the zoo. I also LOVE the zoo. The rest of the week should stay fairly relaxed. Fun stuff but not over running stuff. More play and less work.
Then B goes to camp. So, Riley and I are going to play. I have noticed she is grumpy more and I am guessing it is because she isn't getting as much one on one. So that will be good. Then after camp we are going to Seattle and the beach and by then July is just about over and we will have Jim home again soon. August really doesn't have much going on which is great. One wedding and a adult weekend away.
Have a wonderful 4th of July. Hope you all get to be outside and enjoy the sunshine with friends and family. Go to a parade and have a yummy BBQ and fireworks. I know I sure will.
