September

Is summer over?? It certainly has seemed that way the last week. Cool temperatures in the daytime and almost cold at night. We have had to use the heater outside to eat on the deck this past weekend. Last night was too cool even for the heater. The grass is green and lush which is not a common sight for August in Ohio. Now the Farmers Almanac is predicting a COLD winter. Where is Al Gore in all of this. I think I may want to move to where the global warming is occurring. I always think of September as a great extension of summer. Warm weather with no bugs and cool nights for great sleeping with no air conditioning. If it continues like this we will be having to use the furnace to take the morning chill off of the house.

Mike continues to do OK. I have been calling him and stopping by on a much more frequent bases this past week and he is adjusting. He misses the company of another person in the house but otherwise is handling living alone. He becomes insurance eligible today. YEA!! The job is great and with time we will get him another girl and short term another roommate.

My postings have been less frequent because I have become addicted to a game on facebook called FarmTown. (thank you very much Amanda) I hope to reach the last level sometime this month and then I will be done with it. I now understand a little better how so much time can be spent on stupid games on the computer. And I thought just surfing was bad enough. If you check it out it is my suggestion that you do NOT start playing. It is fun but truly becomes an addiction for those of us with compulsive personalities.

Golf planned for the holiday weekend and then house painting to go with our new roof. Also getting ready for the 60th birthday bash with the gang in Kiawah. Hopefully the highlight of September!

Keep smiling!
