We had a rainy 4th of July, but we were troopers and braved the weather for our local parade and fireworks. It was still good, even wet.
There was plenty of candy and dogs. For some reason, the wacky religious group that is around every year screaming something about damnation & holding amusing signs, was not marching this year. I missed them. We also had an odd shortage of politicians, but why should they get wet when we already had our elections?
The kids were tired all day, but managed to stay awake for the fireworks. We were sitting behind a group of teenagers, and as soon as the fireworks started, ALL of them pulled out their phones and started clicking pictures and texting friends. I don't understand all this texting. I'm sure if I was a teen, I would be texting too, but it's strange to see.
Miss Tink did not have a fun holiday...she would like the boom boom noises to stop and does not care about matchy holiday socks.
I'm sorry posting here has been scattered. I have no idea why, except that I feel like I have nothing to say. I'm in a holding pattern. I can't seem to shake the bit of depression I feel about Kindergarten this year, and with his birthday this week and our anniversary...ugh. I haven't bought his present yet, which is weird for me. I asked him tonight if he could have anything he wanted, what would it be? He said a BB gun. Huh? I told him he's a little young for that, and what would he want besides a BB gun? He wants a house as big as ours with a port-a-potty on the ceiling. I will work on that.
I hope you had a great holiday.
