My Thoughtful Spot

This guy makes a LOT of noise. when he sounded off in the living room tonight it scared the beejeebers out of me. He'd better not make too much noise tonight. Right now he's in one of J's bug containers until he can see and hopefully hear him!

on that note, i will see you all on the weekend. I'm off to bed right now, and tomorrow we head to the lake till Friday night. I can't wait!

Au revoir!

Of course, I'm not...

we spent time with my sister and two of her kidlets today. We had so MUCH fun. Good memories. Gotta do it again!

The conductor waved to them and made lots of noise for them. It was great!

fun times in the basement!

and outside

at least I think i can see the storm coming when I look at this picture..

here's my thermometer today

sunscreen, pool, icewater. Thats our day.

I'm researching door alarms and gps for children. We have funding for both. Sleep is lighter than usual, thus the fatigue. That and a night of WAY too little sleep!

The heat and humidity are up which quite honestly we enjoy since we haven't really had summer before now, but it does affect ones motivation for sure. I need to find my swimsuit and hit the pool. First I really need to get a little more done.

Tonight hubbie works all night. My first night alone since Bri's wandering. I'm a little uneasy.

Back to work with me. I simply must get stuff done.

Yes, I have become parent to a wanderer. Not something I ever wanted to be truth be told.

I woke up this morning to a stranger calling 'hello..." at my door. She was bringing Brianna home to me. She's picked her up approx a mile from home, wandering ON the HIGHWAY. Did I mention it was 8 am? Bria was in her nightie and her crocs, intended only for her to use on the beach.

there is now a motion sensor on her door and there soon will be on ALL doors in this house. I am also seriously considering putting her profile and photo at the police stations. Had she not been able to show this lady where she lived (and that is angelic activity if there ever has been) she would have had to call the police - and they would have had no more idea who Bria was than the man on the moon.

It scares me to think about what could have happened. I'm so very thankful it didn't and we will be doing everything we can do assure it doesn't happen again. Prayers for wisdom welcome.

Bria is fine. A might sore perhaps, but fine. Me? I will recover. I hope.

What is it?

katie snapped this one evening. I didn't even know she was outside lol.

Fun days!!!

Perties

More later

a few inches of freezing cold water and she had to get in. LOL

Today we spent hours in it. Much more water, not a whole lot warmer at 68 degrees, but we had so MUCH fun and got some great exercise. I'm so glad we bought it. AND I just remembered I forgot to shock it tonight. Off to do that!
