Here we are. Smack dab in the middle of summer. It's been warm but not hot, which is nice. Jake is having a frolicking time with James most days (next door boy) and with Cade and Heath when we see them. I'm in the middle of my earnest "project time" aka- when the house is empty of teenage boys and the mess they make. While Jordan is gone, we are emptying and scouring his room, redoing Jacob's room (it's becoming a "big boy" room), refreshing the front bathroom (new linens and decorative hardware, etc. but not anything involving construction-like activity), creating a more organized and thorough records system for Jordan (now that he's his own entity) and for my private lessons. It's also that time of year for sorting through closets and drawers for clothes that is too small, too big, too worn or stained. I've already sorted my photos and created 2 albums, with several more to go (Family album, Jordan lifebook, start Jake's lifebook, France album, Jordan's other Europe trip album and Africa album, Jewelry album). It's time for taking inventory and buying uniforms for fall (for Jake!), and tying up loose ends on older projects.
Did I miss anything?
What are you all getting done this summer?

Whew! - Very little, as compared to you! ;-)
Actually I'm working more (training) hours again and we are helping N&T however possible. We'll be posting pics of whats & where's as we can, so stay tuned! ;-) mc
Summer must be sorting and project time, because that's what I'm doing, too. I have a huge Goodwill pile out in my garage (which I can still park in, thankyouverymuch) and more to be sorted. I think every single child outgrew every single thing they owned so I've been doing some shopping, too.
I painted Amy's room, put up some shelves in there, and next we're going to turn one of her closets into a closet full o' shelves, losing the dresser that's in there now. After that's done I'm going to paint the laundry room if I can ever decide on a color and paint Joshua's bathroom, too.
Whew - I won't chide you about posting anything Darcy - but we do miss you.
What am I doing? Next to nothng besides maintianing and enjoying Windy & boys - and the other company and fun we've had.
August will be my get serious about sorting etc. 'cause in Sept I'll be back to teaching Thursdays I think.
