Back from the Windy City!
Here are pictures!
Amy, Kerri, and I had a BLAST! We got to meet Amy's beau Erick and make sure he passes the test (he do), we saw Chicago in all its wonderfully pleasant-weathered glory, got to catch up with Steve (a friend from high school, LBP in the house!), ate plenty but not managed to not painfully bloat ourselves. Just so very enjoyable to spend a weekend out of town surrounded by good friends doing everything and nothing. It was the exact thing I needed to recharge and reboot my midsummer funk.
I am back in town, refreshed and ready to tackle the lab with all its samples, troublesome machines, and never ending list of things to do with so little time. Heat has set in here in the Deep South as it has all over the US. Hannah and I retreat into the deep recesses of the home shielded from the bright orb in the sky and her many mosquito minions.
July is winding down! David came back from Iceland this week, Caroline is visiting Dan this week in Iceland, Jon and the family return in NEXT WEEK on Thursday, which means Dan quickly follows the week after that!!
August is looking great - Dan comes home in the beginning, school will start, and we have a Philly wedding at the end which means road trip with Hannah to visit his parental units are well! Hurrah! It should be fun to visit PA when it's warm!
Oh boy, so much more to do today so all for now!!
xoxo
