Hot time, summer in the city...

...back of my neck getting dirty and gritty! Yes, it has been so hot lately. And dry.  We finally got about 3 days of rain.  It has been so good.  So yesterday in between the showers, I got my hands dirty and pulled weeds. It is so hard to do from the clay when it is dry.

I can't believe it has been 3 months since I posted anything.  Big news...

Old Business:

• Small pile of memorabilia
• Reading - slow, but consistent. I can be happy with that.
• Trail Guide - same, slow but doing it.
• Magazines - same.
• Devotionals - all over the place!
• Have now found 3 therapists, what the heck!  LOL 2 in Wabash, 1 in Marion. So there will be more on that, but not until it is official!
• Interior done! Need to hang lights and wall cabinets, but soon!
• Heart and Soul going at 50-75%, same as restaurant
• Water softener is IN!
• Weeding, weeding, weeding. But it does get better each year
• Church work holding steady. We have in-person services now, but no singing or bulletin
• Social media back to being a flop. Hoping one of the co-workers will be able to help
• 016 helped out so much! He weeded, he dug holes, he painted, he cleaned, he wrote, cut up cards, posted, all sorts of things! And then he got a job at Wendy's. And now I am sad!
• Had to quarantine after test. Procedure went well. 2 week recovery
• Delivered all the Mother's Day flowers. Everyone loved them.
• Still have flowers to plant
• Took a vacation over July 4. Gadget and I went canoeing and camping with 2 other couples. Don't worry, we were able to maintain plenty of distance and be smart about it.
• 019 got an internship at the Children's Museum, and has really enjoyed that.
• Their grampa passed away in early May, so they've been busy helping their dad clean the house.
• 016 had prom this past Friday with his girlfriend

New Business:

• Added additional bracing, and stained, old sections of the fence to lay down as a deck extension of my patio. Really like this. Had to buy a pressure washer. Something else 016 did. It looks great! Now to landscape around it.
• Just keep on keeping on. Trying to pace, and flow, and just be. It seems so counter-cultural. Yet so many agree with me. So how do we make it the norm?
• Waiting on estimate to "fix" bedroom closets
• 016 has drawn out what he wants for his, I think he and I can do together.
• Waiting to get moved back into garage for both of those. Need room to put things.
