Summer Random


*Went to the eye doctor yesterday for my 1 yr. post PRK checkup. The doc basically told me that I couldn't be in a better position. I was slightly overcorrected, so I have a little room to play with. 20/20 vision is something I never in my life dreamed I would hear in reference to my eyes...It's quite a wonderful feeling. He said that eyes as bad as mine, have usually worsened a little after one year, he was very impressed with mine....Thank you, Lord!

*Trying to stay both busy and sane. They are directly linked. Keeping the kids busy and running the roads to try to keep them from
a. getting bored
b. fighting
We're doing the summer camp at the local movie theater once a week. We splurged in a metal frame pool to keep them cool and occupied. We're also about to start bowling once a week on the "kids bowl free" summer program and we joined the summer library reading program as well. Cam's got church camp next week which will be a lot of fun for him and be exhausting for him. Then basketball camp in July.

*Planning a little end of summer getaway. It's not the big vacation we had envisioned, but just to getaway will be nice.

*We've got cucumbers coming out of our ears. We are picking 6 or 7 a day. Our cabinet is overflowing, we've been trying to give them away to family and friends and we've been eating 3 and 4 a day.

*Our anniversary weekend was beyond wonderful. At the very last minute. (About 9:30pm on Friday), we decided to drive to Baton Rouge for the night where we had dinner and rented a hotel room. I'm talking the spontaneous kind where all you have are the clothes on your back and you have to buy a toothbrush. I had toothpaste in my purse from a previous dentist visit. LoL. It was a wonderful time though, we enjoyed every minute.

*Have a great day!!

AHH! Your summer plans sound so great! I love that you take them bowling and to the library too!

What a great anniversary weekend... I love those kinds of drive by the seat of your pants kind of plans. I was gonna ask why you carried toothpaste in your purse, lol.

Happy Sunday!

So wish I was eligible for that surgery. Unfortunately, I'm not. Boo. I haven't had 20/20 vision since 1st grade.

Kids ... summertime. I am actually screaming to my kids at this very moment to quit fighting. Ugh.

Extra cucumbers, you can just bring to me.

Glad you had fun.
