We spent the last week at our family lake house having what we called a Staycation. It was fun, relaxing and filled with some great family time and memories. Sprinkled in the week, we were able to pull off a gathering of our Mom/Kids Bible Study group at the lake, a visit from out of town family, the championship tournament of C's golf league (yeah 5th place), a Girl Scout overnight at a Lodge an hour away, and a party for C's Championship Winning Baseball Team and their families.
Wow that was exhausting and fun.
Gearing back up to reality is not as much fun. I realized when we returned that I did not have a calendar. I'd bought a desk calendar last July that ended this July. Guess that means I have no plans for August or beyond.
School starts in two weeks. You say that it's still summer. Tell that to the school board. It's been so cool here this summer that a few days last week it was actually too chilly for the lake or the water park we went to only to find out it was closed due to cold weather. Yep, it was July!!
I'm thinking that the weather will warm up right when the yellow school buses start coming around the neighborhood and football season starts.
In addition to reality this week, it is someone's Birthday. A princess in our family is turning 5 and her mother still needs to plan a little gathering for her friends. I think that the Lake is calling again. What's better for this sweetheart than some sand, water, and maybe a s'more or two.
Hopefully, by Birthday time, I'll have some groceries purchased and the laundry put away from our trip. No promise though.
