Last night the youngest had his first sleep over at the neighbors. He’d tried before but never made it through the night unless his brother was with him. We hope he had fun.
Yesterday the morning started off with the oldest hot on the trail of a 3 foot snake at the neighbors. He couldn’t quite catch it as it seems they’re onto him. We had a spell of rain and wind that was a bit worse as you go east. Just a good summer mini storm here. The youngest hung out at his friends while Mom, the oldest and I ran some errands and I got a haircut. We were gone for about 3 hours yesterday. We did go to Whole Foods and spent $250 on staples to stock up and got some ribs for dinner. Tuesday we drive up to Vail to see the misses doctor.
Now for a more serious note, today is my Mom and Dad’s anniversary. I’m not sure how many years it would have been but it has to be close to 45 or so. Anyhow, Happy Anniversary Mom. I know you think of Dad daily and so do we! In some ways he has more of an impact on my life now than he did when he was around. By that I don’t mean the last 10 years of his life when he was a shell of who he was, but of when I was a kid and the lessons he taught us and things I remember about him growing up. We all miss him too. He’d want us all to enjoy the day and think of the good times we had together. As I get older I strive to be as much like him as I can. I can’t think of a better role model for any man.
It’ll be in the 90’s today and we might have a little more rain this afternoon. I’m going to try to go to the gym quickly before I head to the gun show to meet my buddy who’s bringing the old mexican saddle down from the mountains. I’ll have to stop by and show my Mom.
Time for me to go, hope you all are well. Take care, God Bless and enjoy the day!
