Well, as you can see, I have not been too good at posting every day. I have had a bout with anxiety attacks since last Tuesday and now am on medication for that too. I think this year has been the year for all my problems....it has to get better. When I feel like really doing something creative, I am at work or not at home, when I finally get to a point where I can do something, I am not in the creative spirit any longer. Just one thing after another. School is getting ready to start here on the 20th. Between me and vincent and my mom, we have picked up all of allyssa's back-to-school supplies except the book bag, which we feel that Natasha should at least buy, right!!!!! Speaking of b-t-s supplies, I cannot believe all the stuff that these kids have to take to school. Of course, half of it is to cover for the people who "can't afford it OR do not bother to send anything" for their children. Plus the school district does not supply alot of the stuff we used, which was not much from what I remember. That yellowish coloring paper and big crayons is the only thing I can remember right off that the school provided. We took our own paper, pencils, notebook and folders. Bookbags were not even heard of then I don't think. Of course, I am not THAT OLD! 47 is all...... The weather is dreadfully hot, little rain lately here, some areas get alot but that is isolated and scattered thunderstorms for ya, you never know when or where they are going to erupt.
Mom is getting ready for her trip with 2 of her siblings and their wives to Washington State. They are going to go into Canada first though. And then meet another sibling who will already be at the sibling's house they are going to see, does that make sense or did I loose you entirely? I am so happy for Mom that she gets to make this trip for one, she has never been to the east coast and for another that she gets to go to Canada. I am so hoping she has a great time and enjoys every minute of it!
Well, the girls are doing great now. Dakota can say "I 'tuck" for I stuck. She got stuck in a chair the other day, she can also say "dat" for what's that. She is so cute and talking up a storm now. Allyssa is growing up too fast every time I see her she looks like she has matured a little bit more. She has two teeth on the bottom that are loose so she is waiting for them to come out. What a silly girl!
Well, gotta go for now.
