It's Finally Summer

This week, it is finally summer in my mind. It's taken awhile, 3 weeks actually, but due to working at Huntington a little less (quite a bit less) and the with the weather taking a turn to warmer temps, and doing more summer activities, it's now summer. Ahhh. It feels good.

We had quite the storm a few nights ago. I woke up and it was just strange. A strange sound, a strange feeling. I looked outside and all I saw was white. I seriously thought we were in a tornado. I went to the tv and saw 85 mile per hour gusts in Ankeny. Yikes! We were fortunate and survived. Haha. No, all was good. Our neighbors lost quite a few trees, but fortunately not much else was damaged. We did have a huge branch on my truck, but no damage. Wish I had pictures...

After weeks on end of beautiful 70 degree weather, I had in my mind that summer was going to be beautiful, running around, sitting outside without sweating weather. I should have known. This week it's in the 90's and will continue to be. I guess it helps me feel like it's summer though.

I had to work quite a bit the first few weeks of summer, but somehow, that disappeared. I went from 30+ hours a week to 9. Hmm. Kinda makes me grumpy, BUT, I am thankful that I have a job. I just found out that my boss was let go yesterday. I am really bummed about this and feel awful. She was such a great boss and was doing a fabulous job with the kids. Our owner said that the money situation isn't so good right now. So, I'll be thankful for every hour that I get, because I realize that even that could even be gone soon.

I'm on our new little computer right now which doesn't have any pictures on it, so I won't be able to upload pictures in this post right now. I'll try to get some on soon.

Happy Summer!
