Last week of June

Hard to believe that this Friday will be July 1st! In another 2 weeks we’ll be half way through summer. Yesterday was another swim meet however we ducked out after a couple of hours. We have another meet this Wednesday along with football and just couldn’t hang out for 3 hours or more between races. Both boys were not up for the long wait and we certainly were not. Uncle T and Aunt B watched the boys for a couple of hours while the misses and I ran an errand. The rest of the day was spent lounging around the house and included the whole family watching, you guessed it, another John Wayne movie, McClintock. There sure have been a lot of his movies on lately and the boys, especially the youngest really enjoy all cowboy movies.

Both Mom and I are up at 5 as she works at 7:15. I need to clean the garage today because we have a bunch of wine being delivered tomorrow. A lot of the week will then be consumed with repackaging wine and shipping fed ex to various spots around the country. It’s a huge job that really gives the misses and I a workout. I also have a 1pm dermatologist appointment today and will need to take the boys with me. It’s a huge week at work with about $500,000 dollars worth of orders that still need to come in. I think I have most lined up but with so many markets, (about a dozen yet to order) the odds are something will fall out, hope not.

There’s no swim meets next weekend so we’re thinking of going to the Greeley Stampede which is a pretty good size rodeo that goes on for about 2 weeks each year in Colorado. It’s local and won’t cost us very much money so it’s looking good. We’re supposed to get a break from the heat today with about a 20 degree drop in temperature to the mid 70’s. That sure will be nice, if the weatherman is right. Mom’s off at 3pm so we’ll all arrive home about the same time. No time to dive into the economy or politics today. Plus if you don’t think you need to do a few things to prepare in case of the worst scenario, nothing I say is going to make you change your mind. Just have an open mind and please don’t assume the government is going to be there for you if things get bad.

Time to go hit the showers, Mom’s making breakfast and the oldest needs to get up for swim team in about 15 minutes. Have a great day and take care,
