Totally out of ideas for clever titles. It's just a regular ol' blog post people.

It's been a crazy busy weekend - and the week ahead promises to be the same... not a lot of time for the computer.

There are some things on my mind though, so I'm going to blurt.

• I had sick kids this week. S. threw up (everywhere - all over her bed and carpet) on Monday night and all day Tuesday... Just when I thought she was better and we could leave the house, E. threw up in the first store we stopped at on Thursday. Fun. Thank goodness no one else has gotten the dreaded tummy bug. Yet.
• I have a mammogram scheduled for tomorrow morning. Yay.
• I helped in the nursery at church this morning. I'm sort of waiting on Asia regarding how we are going to serve at our new church - but when the opportunity came up for me to help in the nursery, I jumped at the chance. It's been years since I've done nursery work... when my kids were babies you couldn't have paid me to work in the nursery. Now, I love it. I get to squeeze sweet little babies and bounce them and smell their sweet baby smells. Once a month will be good to get my baby fix.
• We leave next Saturday morning for our annual beach trip. SO excited. Lots to do to get ready.
• We can't decide if we're taking Gracie to the beach. A big part of me wants to kennel her here. But we haven't yet, so finding a kennel this week would add more to my already busy schedule... very undecided here. It sure would be a lot easier to travel without her.
• Went clothes shopping this afternoon. I actually found shorts. I have been having great difficulty finding shorts this summer. They're all either WAY too long (Bermudas are in, people) or WAY to short in the crotch. We're talking one inch zippers, folks. It's just not appropriate on a woman my age. Oh - and then there are the lovely elastic waisted shorts made for grannies. Where are the shorts for women my age? I'm just looking for some regular length, mid-rise flattering shorts. They don't exist. I settled on a pair of Bermudas today - out of desperation. I feel like I should go buy a pair of Keds and keep a tennis racket over my shoulder. Just a bit too preppy for me... but they'll have to do. At least they weren't plaid.
• Asia is selling his car... he has a buyer coming this afternoon to get his daughter's approval for it - but basically he committed to buying it yesterday when he test drove it. With the traveling he'll be doing in his new position, Asia needs something more reliable for the weeks when a state car isn't available. He's looking to buy a VW Jetta that a friend is trying to sell... I hate buying cars. It makes me extremely nervous and uptight. I'm totally letting him make this decision, since I can't be involved without getting stressed out.
• Did you know that Volkswagen is making the Rabbit again? My first car was a Rabbit. I named it John. Loved that car. Hated paying for all the repairs it needed, but I loved the car.
• Wimbledon is over. The months of June and July are full of tennis, with the French Open and Wimbledon just weeks apart. I like to watch tennis. But not as much as Asia does. He tapes about 5 hours of tennis a day during the tourneys. Thank goodness he watches them VERY quickly, skipping lots and lots or fluff and the between point rif-raff.. But still, it's always a relief when a tournament is done...
• It's Sunday nap time. I take a nap nearly every Sunday. LOVE my Sunday nap.
