August Upon Us

I can't believe how fast July went past.  Summer is flying by at an alarming rate, but I can say I will welcome the cooler temperatures.  Days on end of 90+ degrees is just not very tolerable for me anymore.  When it cools down at night, I'm ok with it, but it hasn't been even doing that lately.  I just want to set in front of any a/c unit continually.  Not so good for the electric bill. 
We are getting ready to hit the road for a short vacation soon.  We are going to visit Wendell's parents in UT and see a few things in UT and NV.  Will be short, but much needed.  We had hoped to go to NE to visit S&H, but the budget was just too tight this year.  Hoping we can make that happen next year, unless they get sent someone new by then. 
Sean had the opportunity to fly over to England for a TDY (temporary duty) in July.  It was fun to see all the neat pictures he took and the many places they were able to see while there.  He and Heatherly are having a great time seeing lots of things and doing lots of fun things just around the Omaha area too. 

I still am trying to get all my retired stamps & accessories sold.  I have put very low prices on everything, so it's a real deal.  I will be having it all on display this Wed and/or Thurs evenings, so come on by to see it and find some bargains.  There are stamps, paper, ink, eyelets, ribbons, chipboard, and more.  Nothing is over $10 and there is even a table of free stuff.  Come by to see it all. 

I've decided this must be the month for showers and weddings.  We went to 2 showers for 3 people on Saturday - and there had been one earlier in the week.  We have 5 wedding invites hanging on our frig, and I am just wondering when we might get more.  But it's fun!!

I hope you are enjoying your summer and will have time to relax as well as do lots!!  Keep smiling and stamping.
