July Boating with Amanda

Happy to be going on Jennifer's boat today.  It is so hot an humid that the pool is warm!  Amanda and I have a list a mile long!  Lots to do before the party but pretty well under control.  Just hope the weather holds nice.  It is what it is.

July in Michigan

Yikes, got an hour in the pool today, emptied all the rain out of the plants before it started again.  Thunder, lightening and dark!  Sunny all day until about 6:00.  One upstairs window was leaking yesterday and those are new!  Oh rain!   Been home a week now.  A lot accomplished.  Ready for the shower, everything ordered and bought except for the last minute.  Went to the dentist yesterday for a crown replacement and wish I never had agreed to it.  Hurt so much, 2 1/2 hours in his chair.  Did get some good Ford Road shopping in the last couple of days....Ikea, shower needs, caught up after being gone for almost 2 weeks.   Door guys here today and spent most of the day preparing the new doors for installation upstairs only to find they are about 1/32 of an inch too large.  Had to take all of them to a guy who will plane them.  I understand how much that 1/32 is.  They did not close.  Old house, measures outdated...

Home from the most amazing 12 days!  Loved being in Rehoboth but being with my kids in Boston and touring on my own was so much fun.  Even though it was pouring at the beach in Maine yesterday, I got to go to Salem, Ogunquit, eat lobster roll, fried clams, dinner treat at the Salty Pig, good wine, good food, good family and friends....and a good 5 lbs. extra on the very long short flights home.  Happy to be home with Lucy, Otto and my yard, flowers, pool and house.  So fun to visit and be in the big city but so good to be home again too.  Wish they all lived closer!  It is what it is and I am one lucky girl to have the great experiences I have had these 12 days.  Summer has just begun!
