Amanda- I've started reading the Historian, but I haven't gotten far into the book at all yet.

It's a long book...but enjoy! It's not full of action, but it is a good read! I'd love to chat about when you're done!

Sounds like a great holiday- i love the idea of celebrating July 4th in a samll town. Get the "American experince" from middle America.
I love DC for the fourth, but I'd like a new experience next year.
Keep up the swimming!

Hi there Amanda,

Glad you had a great holiday. I enjoyed mine alot. It took my mind off things. Came back quite tan. Now all I need to do is dye the hair blond and I would look like malibu barbie...???? HMMMM maybe not but I can dream.

Have a great weekend and keep in touch.

Hi Amanda....

Don't you just love swimming? During our trip back to see my grandmother over the 4th, we (dh, dd & I) spent every day at a pool. In Nebraska, it must be about the only thing that the kids do all summer, because that medium-sized town has tons of public pools and all the apartment complexes have them.

The medium-sized town we live in here in Colorado has 3 public pools and only one of them is an outdoor pool & it's so outdated... :cry:

Glad to hear that you had a nice holiday.

Hello ladies!

Thanks for writing and keeping my journal alive. I had a rough week last week. I worked 70 hours! My hands were really sore last week too and I had a rough time typing.

But I'm better, more rested, and back. I can't wait to visit your journals!

70 hours!..Wow, thats some week you had Amanda :shock:

glad your rested now!.....how do you like this heat? did you have bad storms last night???.....

by **ablack8** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 2:05 pm

Yeah...I pushed myself way too much. The heat was starting to get to me. I went to the beach on Saturday...and now I'm very pink. Lake Michigan is lovely in the summer.

We got a ton of rain last night too...Wow. How did your household handle it? My kitty was hiding under my desk, but he did fine!

Thanks for writing Angie!

No damage here from the storm, but it did get very windy and rained hard!...
it just bent over my tomato plants....so today, I had to stake them again...
the rain was good for the veggies and flowers

Hi! Thanks for visiting, Anne!

I'm good. I was just in Milwaukee for a business trip and now I'm getting back in the swing of things. Maybe I can reply more later!

Hi Amanda!!
long time, no visit......
I just haven't been with it, but trying to get back on the SB wagon..
it's been a struggle.....
hope your doing fine!

by **ablack8** » Mon Aug 07, 2006 2:27 pm

Hi! Wow...it has been a really long time since I've written. The last few weeks have been kind of crazy. I've been writing a bunch hitting my deadline...plus I spent lots of time cleaning last week. My grandma decided to come for a visit, so..it was kind of stressful. I did go to my aunt's house yesterday to pick her up. Grandma seems to be pleasant and nice. She's been kind of pleasant. I'll take it!

by **annecolorgreen** » Mon Aug 07, 2006 3:13 pm

I'm glad Grandma's been nice.

How's the beach? Are you rejoining us?
