how quickly time flies. And, the longer you "think" about writing but don't actually do it, the harder it is to do. One would think that there would be much more to say, but instead, it just ends up a jumbled mess in my brain.
This summer has been all about the kids, well, mostly about the kids. Which is how it should be. Emma had her first Mean Girl encounter, lost a friend over it, but handled it so well. She took a cooking class, had a blast. She also played softball this year, had a great time and made some new friends. AND she topped it off by cutting 8 inches off her hair!
Shannon has been continuing that oh so wonderful journey between tween and teen. She also played softball (with tears), got a part in a community play production (more tears), tried out for volleyball (made the "C" team - LOTS of tears) and generally gave me a giant summer long headache. She went to several different day camps - one for show choir, one for basketball and one for volleyball (no tears!!). BUT, she also cared for her sister all summer and made a few half hearted attempts at cleaning the house.
My boss is dying slowly and painfully from lung cancer, something I wouldn't wish on anyone, so the employees are running the show (or, more likely, the patients are running the asylum) and trying to downplay it to our customers.
That, and a few trips to the pool and water parks (I'll write more about that later) and movies pretty much sums up our summer.
I'm going to TRY and get back into the writing groove again, but I make no promises. That's if anyone's reading. So if you are reading, hope you had a wonderful summer and stop back on by!!

I know the feeling about writing. I've written a few things, but it just seems like so much to get started again.. We all need to, though. FB is just not enough.. Glad you had a good summer, and I don't envy you all the hormones raising girls into teens..lol Been there, done that.. didn't like it! Glad to hear from you again..
hugs and love,
Jean
You're doing much better than I am about writing. Whenever I'm somewhere else . . . church, or school attending something involving a grandkid, I think of these things that I'd like to write about. But, by the time I get back home there have been waaaaay too many other thoughts that have crossed my mind. Hmmmm, I guess that's what they say about old(er) people - there short term memory goes first! LOL
Good to see you writing, though. Maybe it will inspire me too. Do take care.
