Summer is here!

Well, I missed welcoming summer yesterday, so I will do it today. Welcome summer, now go away. Ok, maybe I don't want it to go away entirely but there are some aspects that I sure would love to do with out. Like....oh the heat maybe? If we had a built in pool I might reconsider, but until that pipe dream happens, the Sacto heat and I will remain enemies. Summer does have a few redeeming qualities. The biggest for our household is a much needed break from our school routine. School will continue off and on throughout, but the daily schedule is relaxed until the middle of August. It's lazy days around here, and i was so ready for that. Time to get closets organized, shelves straightened, under the beds cleared, toys organized, clothing donated etc. I am also enjoying my nights when I get to do nothing except lay on my couch watching a Giants game. There is no greater luxury for me on a hot summer night,
So welcome summer. Hope you can keep the thermostat controlled and that you don't go away too quickly. We are glad you see finally here!
