Not really. Not at my house anyway. This summer has been jam packed full of activity. I've barely had time to catch my breath, much less blog. Sorry to all my readers, um, like all 4 of you. I have however tried to keep up with my blog reading. Its just my own blog posting is taking a beating.
Here's a few things happening at my house this summer, and my list of things yet to do:
1. I have TONS of photos on my camera that I have not even downloaded. Pictures from our trip to St Simons Island, garden pictures, pictures of cool vintage items I scored at an estate sale several weeks ago, pictures of my sister's grave at the cemetary (ok, please don't let that creep you out, its no big deal, and her grave is still new and my brother in law wanted pictures, 'nuff said). Anyway, tons of pics I want to download so I can blog about such things. Need to get that done.
2. I started the summer quarter teaching an online management class. Found out I had to develop about half of the course content, so a huge amount of my computer time has been dedicated to that.
3. Hubs and I purchased a vintage boat (does 24 years old qualify as vintage?) at the previously mentioned estate sale. It is so cool! A 24 foot cabin cruiser, complete with galley and john. But, it has needed so much clean up. So, days have been spent washing and scrubbing and tearing out old upholstery. The bulk of the upholstery will need to be replaced. Its moldy and yucky and rotten. Soon I'll be blogging for old boat cabin decor and upholstery ideas! Websites and suggestions are welcome!
4. I'm planning a trip to Key Largo, leaving this upcoming weekend. My oldest boy is there and I cannot wait to see him. I know it will be hot as blazes in Key Largo Florida in July. I don't relish the thought of the humidity. But I do treasure the thought of getting my arms around my boy. We'll be there a week so I've got tons to do before we leave.
The picture above is my youngest boy, on the beach a few weeks ago in St Simons Island. Photo courtesty of my 20 year old stepdaughter, who seems to be much more on the ball with getting her photos downloaded.
So, how's your summer? Lazy or Crazy?

Wow!! You have been going crazy this summer! I'm not sure how you're holding all the pieces together. Can't wait to see some of your pics. The boat sounds really great! That will really be interesting to see a boat redo. Haven't seen THAT in Blogland!! : ) By the way, no, my daughter didn't kill me for using her pics. The fact that they had been downloaded onto the computer meant that they had already been used as Facebook profile pictures at some point. So, what could she say?? Yes, you're right, mothers do have these prerogatives!! (The wedding photo story was a little shocking : )!!)
Mizz Rebecca, you crack me up! As I've told you before, you're a wonderful writer! I enjoy everything you write about, it's a wonderful journey, even through the tough times!
I hope you're having a wonderful summer!
Hugs,
Kathi :)
