Good morning, lOvelies!
I hope that everyone is feeling rested and refreshed to start the week off in the right frame of mind. I am hanging in pretty well even though I slept like crap. I have a super long day so I hope I'll be able to keep up.
I don't think I did much of anything all day other than food-related activities.
I worked on my grocery order for Wednesday, went to the small grocery store to get what I needed for Tom's b-day dinner, and then I cooked most of the afternoon. Everything was delicious. The more I cook tofu, the more I like it. The chick'n burritos were awesome! Sam was over in the afternoon, so she stayed for dinner too. Scott came over around lunchtime on his break so I got to see all of my kids. 
The other highlight of my day was watching a goldfinch hanging out on the coneflowers in the front garden. I rarely get to see them up close so this was a treat. I'm not sure why they were on the flowers since every time they moved, the stalks bent over. I haven't been deadheading, so I'm assuming the flowers are going to seed and the birds were eating that. Sounds like a good deal to me.
I am working Summer Camp today, with 2nd to 5th graders. I'm scheduled from 8-4 which is a loooong day but the girl I am working with is amazing. I'm her assistant which will make it easier on me. I was hoping that we'd have leftover burritos for dinner but everyone went back for seconds so that's not happening. I'm going to ask Gary to come up with something. I am sure that by the time I get home and showered, I'm going to be burnt toast.
(That reminds me that I need to pack sunscreen.)
HAGD!

not sure if we will get a huge amount of rain, but its supposed to rain most of the day and into tomorrow. Hooray!! Its so nice to open the windows and smell the rain! I was missing in Action since Friday and I have lots to catch up on today! DH is now into having flex days at his job, so he gets every second Friday off, nice to have him home, and we can get so much more done with that extra day! But by Monday he is ready to get back to work for a rest and I am ready for the peace and quiet too 
. Wow I can hardly believe its almost the end of July!! Normally I would be getting excited for the kids to all be coming out this way for a few weeks, but sadly that is not happening this year 
. I will have to wait now until Christmas to see everyone in person again. I am sure the months will fly by and I will be scrambling to get my calendar done and get gifts sent out for everyone, just like every year LOL. Anyway I need to get my Color Play Layouts posted to various places and then hopefully see if I can get to work on another layout today. 
I DID shock you about Alyssa, didn't I? Alyssa marches to her own drummer and we never know what she's going to come up with. Adrienne is thinking (hoping) she'll change her mind again, but I don't think she will.
