Happy Birthday Switzerland!
What an insanely busy week we had. Last Saturday we painted 2 of our decks (they look really nice now), and got the house in order for my family. They arrived Sunday night, and I took Monday through Wednesday off to show them around.
Words of the week:
- Pace & Heat: Similar to when my mother and nephew were here earlier this year, their pace is very different. Adding the effect of heat to the mix didn’t really help. The heat brought out the pollen in the air, which made my father not feel well at all.
- Dog Sitting: We’re dog sitting for our neighbors this week-end. Their dog is absolutely mellow and adorable, which is fantastic. We’re also going to a dog event to find ourselves a pooch.
- Growing Up: As my oldest nephew turns 18 (in the next few months), I had to look back a bit and see where life has taken us. I really feel good about the choices that I’ve made recently, and if anything wish I had made them earlier. I had a rough 10-15 years there. I did some great things, but never really was myself, and made mistakes that I regret. I am less than one year into this new direction, and already feel a lot better.
Number of the Week:
- 5: Our store selection is now moving to 5.
