Peace and Quiet

Finally I think things are starting to settle down. It seems like life has been one non-stop whirlwind for the last month or so. Going back to before my Grandfather passed away, it has been one big drama or stress situation after another. But barring anything new coming down the pipe, I think we are finally back to our version of normal around here.

The kids are ready to head back to school on Tuesday. Well.. they are not READY, but they are prepared. I am READY for them to go back to school. It will be good for them to start putting their brains to use for something other than absorbing radiation from TVs and computer monitors. Both have started training for their fall sports. G is playing soccer in the club league and B is running cross country again this fall.

Work has finally settled down as well. After back to back major projects that we were woefully understaffed for and several VERY long weeks, we are hoping for some downtime around here as well. I finally got caught up on over two weeks of work orders that had to sit while we took care of these projects.

The weather has had a touch of fall already here and we haven't even hit Sept. yet. It has been a beautiful 65ish during the days and the evenings have been quite cool. I'll take this over the desert heat anyday!

Time to get through a Friday and get on with the weekend!
