Well, I'm running out of time if I want to have a blog entry under the September heading. Where has my time gone this month? A stomach bug and a cold each took about a week of it as they worked their way through the family. Tommy was on vacation for a week, which always slows down my discretionary time, as I have three people to entertain rather than just two. Then he got in a fender bender in the parking lot his first day back at work, and we've been spending time dealing with the insurance company to get the car fixed. And then we found water dripping through the ceiling and down the wall from the attic one night and had to call out the air conditioning repairman. (I still haven't gotten around to trying to fix the wallpaper where it peeled up.)
Apart from dealing with one thing after another, I don't know that I've accomplished anything substantive since I last blogged. I did, however, manage to get caught up on the stack of magazines that piled up unread since my parents' move. So I'm a little closer to getting to the shelf of books that have been sitting unread since last Christmas.
In the meantime, my friend Becky gave birth to her fifth baby August 30th and has posted five times in September. *sigh*
