When it Rains...

Yeah there has been a lot going on, hence the blogging break. Because really do you want to hear about:

• the fact that all three cars had some sort of major hiccup over the last two weeks.
• and our Lab ate all the beefsteak tomatoes that were two days away from perfection off the vine today.
• and that a good friend of mine passed away this weekend at the age of 36.
• and her death has triggered some emotional responses and fears of dying young due to poor health.
• and that school is boring as all get out, but there are only 6 weeks left after tomorrow
• or that work really slowed down, like snail speed.
• and that my ENTIRE braid somehow dreaded up on itself the last time I was in the pool and it took me an hour to pick out and now I REALLY need to cut some mega length off.
• or that we saw a scary gory motorcycle accident minutes after it happened.
• and that all the fabulous rain we got last month has resulted in an explosion of flies, who like to come in our house.

Inhale, Exhale, Keep Going Forward.

On the Bright side (because there always is if you look)

• Casey picked up two jobs for the month!
• I switched house insurances and saved a BUNDLE
• and that switched restructured our escrow account which sent us an out of balance check!
• I am slightly car savvy enough to find the problem under the hood and confident enough to go back to the garage to have them fix it AGAIN.
• Alex is loving his summer camp.
• And once again, I am rocking the grades in school, 100+% in every class. Plus due to extra credit.
• And I love my husband, he has been great through the pouring rain, I appreciate that.

Okay, Carry On Nicole!
