Where did you go August??

WHO CARES!!!!  I am so happy that August has less then 14 hours to go :)   It really wasn't a bad month, just glad that tomorrow is September because after September comes OCTOBER!!  I know, I know, a big well duh!!   We have 40 days until Todd is home and that makes me very, very excited!!!!

So let's discuss this month of August that flew by.   It has been very dry around here, too dry actually.  Everything seems to be dieing except the freakin weeds which include some really monster sized thistles.  The yellow jackets are (were) thriving in my water hose reel as I found out last night when I got stung on the finger by one of the little bad words.  But they were quickly annihilated :D  Todd turned 40 this month.  Megan started her senior year :(  and is in show choir, which is gonna cost me a small fortune in addition to all the costs of her senior year!!   Dawn got a job in D.C.  Chelsea is still applying for and trying to get a job.  I had surgery on the 6th for all of my not so nice female issues.  So far so good, but time will tell if it did the trick.  We have another new kitty that was found in the same place Rocky was.  He was skinnier and had some kind of chemical burn on his poor little nose and the whiskers on the left side of his face were really short :(  His name is Gizmo because he has some big ears and eyes.  Now hopefully the 3 cats can get along or we will be looking for a new home for Gizmo after he is neutered.  He is just as lovey and ornery as Mr. Rocky :) 

We are excited about September for so many reasons.  Todd will be doing his shopping for things we want from Korea, YAY!!  I have a list of projects for the girls and I to complete and a few of those projects will need some help from my father :)  We have a few appointments for the animals and Megan.  Megan will also start after school rehearsals for show choir and the play towards the end of September.  Todd will start clearing to get the heck out of there!!!!  We have some birthday cards to deliver.  All in all September SHOULD be a very busy/productive month.  Who knows maybe sometime in there I will actually take some more pictures and even put them on the computer!!  :D  it's a good theory anyway....heehee  If I can't manage pictures  maybe I can at least manage to post more, but I am NOT promising anything.
