Summer is Here!
SUMMER TIME! I remember when those two words provoked feelings of excitement, anticipation, relief and overwhelming joy that school was done! Now....work is hectic, Tom's hours have doubled and I still have to get the boys up at 6:00am to get out the door and to camp/daycare. And to top it off, we're now trying to function in a 106 degree heat index. I guess that is what we get for both of us taking jobs in the recreation/tourism field. It sure did sound fun at the time!

Toddler's Property Rules
Rule 1. If I like it, it is mine.
Rule 2. If it is in my hands, it is mine.
Rule 3. If I can take it from you, it is mine.
Rule 4. If I had it a little while ago, it is mine.
Rule 5. If it is mine, it must not appear to be yours in any way.
Rule 6. If I am doing or building something, all the pieces are mine.
Rule 7. If it looks just like mine, it is mine.

10 Random Thoughs
1. I think I've come up with a new exercise fad - Dancing to the Wiggles.
2. I'm declaring war on my two-year-old's temper tantrums.
3. I got two bouquets of flowers for my birthday. The first was from TJ and was a weed (roots and all) pulled from the front yard. The second was gorgeous native flowers my friend pulled from her garden. It's tough to say which one I like better - but I'm leaning toward the weed.
4. I will be perfectly content if we never sell this house. I will also be perfectly ecstatic if we do.
5. We went to TJ's first school function. I must say I'm not looking forward to the next 15 years of these - it was chaos!
6. When I can't sleep, I think of my favorite TV show, book, or movie and try to place my friends in family into the characters. i.e, If I were Harry Potter, who would be Hermione and Ron? or if I was on a deserted Island like on "Lost" who do I know that would play Jack and Sawyer?
7. Whoever created Sponge Bob Square Pants has a seriously deranged sense of humor.
8. If you watch the show "Lost" you know that the title of show says as much about the viewers as it does the plot line.
9. As I was writing #8 I heard running water in the bathroom...This is what I found.
10. I'm watching Vegetales and it's an episode on how to be a good friend. I hope I am as good a friend as the Asparagus and squash are.
