July, Really??

It's almost chilly enough for me to wear a sweatshirt outside. It is 3:00 p.m. on July 18th! This weather is crazy! Maybe we should think about moving back to Texas :) Karla told me it's been over 100 pretty much all summer. Yesterday the high was 108. It sounds crazy, but I would prefer that to our summer weather right now.

The pool deck is getting torn up and hauled away. Hopefully they will come back soon to repour the concrete. It is the perfect time to fix our problem. For one, it's too chilly to swim anyway. 2. Haley's in the middle of her Propositional Calculus and Operational Systems classes with 4+ hours of homework a day. 3. The kids were needing a break from swimming. They have literally been swimming every single day since we opened the pool in May!

Haley got a review test to study over the weekend. She has one more class period, then test day next Wednesday. Brian took the day off work today so that he could sit in class with her. She's actually doing quite well, but there were a couple things that I did not understand. He took a few semesters of Calculus in college, so I passed the buck onto him!

Our dinner vocabulary word was "abashed" a few days ago. Somehow, the subject of every single sentence ended up being Ella or Zeke. For instance, "Ella was probably abashed when she threw a dart in the toilet." or "Zeke was abashed when he told a lie." I guess MY kids must think they are pefect little angels and have nothing to be ashamed of. . . . .
