Ezri, it's been Saturday for about 3 days now.
(Well, maybe someday I'll realize what day it is!)[:D][:D] I think it has something to do with school being out! Pray I can get on some kind of homeschooling schedule- but ya don't have to do this until the end of August, OK?[:)]
Karaboo, when my kids were younger, my brother would take them to Detroit to see the Freedom Festival fireworks. The fireworks would be located on barges between Canada and the U.S. I think the last year they went with him was the year they came home and told me about the great seats they had. He took them on top of an old building to watch them. Oh, and he had his own kids up there, too![sm=icon_smile_yikes.gif]
zoebob, tell your Grandpa "Happy Birthday!!!:"[:D][:D] Also everyone else!![:)]
Cindy, I know about not wanting to drive a truck everywhere. Ours only gets about 15 miles to the gallon.
We found a house on Lake Huron for $500 a month. Dh is having second thoughts on renting it. It would be easier than living in the apt and going up and down stairs all the time, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to stay there another month or two. (The lease is up the 1st of September.)
The lady who owns the house has been calling about 4 times a day since we saw it. She lives right next door to it and do you all see where I am going with this? I told dh that she would probably end up driving us crazy if we moved there. She is probably lonesome and is about 80 years old.
Sorry if I sound mean. I think she thinks that she has "adopted" us already![sm=icon_smile_yikes.gif]
Want to hear a "funny" story? One of my girls used to take off with her friends when she was a teenager and would really scare me because I didn't know where she was. (and yes there is hope for crazy teens! they grow up and become parents!) The other day, she called me and told me that her 13 year old had taken off in the middle of the night. She was telling me all the horrible thoughts and the awful feeling she had when she realized he was gone. She asked me if I knew what it felt like and THEN she realized what she was asking.....she told me that I didn't need to say anything.....I guess they learn, it just takes a while. She found the boy at his friends across the street, hmm wonder if she yelled at him, like I did at her when I found her???
