Let us just leave it at that then huh? Whoo boy what a freight train of a week. If I didn’t have the fundraiser to sink all of my available time & energy into, I think I would have sat and wallowed in my sorrow. It was good to be busy. A net positive for a horrible situation. I truly believe we have come together to do something great for Erik. And that is all I ever wanted it to be. One sliver of hope in a terrible time in his life.

In other news, it’s Saturday. This last week has been hot as balls, and humid AF. Doing any work outside has resulted in dripping sweat and sticky clothes. I do not envy outdoor workers, nor miss my time as one of them. This rain is unexpected. My laen is lush and green still which is weird. My yearly trend of yellow brown, tan crispy grass hasn’t turned up yet. Still have to cut the grass once a week. Better than the twice per week it can be in the spring & fall though. Lots of continuous weeding to do in all of the beds too. Be nice if the weeds would take a mid summer hiatus. But no. Still springing up and keeping my hands filthy, and my back sore.
Swimming lessons have begun anew. Kids are upset that they have to swim the whole 30 minutes because the classes are so small. Big feelings from my two. Lots of hot & humidity fueled attitude too. Could do without that. I think much of it stems from being hangry. Kids aren’t fond of eating a breakfast. And then get over tired from swimming, and refuse to believe that their moods are affected by the lack of food and energy in their system. Such fun!
The two funerals are next weekend. Going to be a tough few days leading into the civic holiday. Ciao Bella!
