Dear Kids,
We’re all waiting for the good news from Tom and Kim. Naturally they’re waiting, too. Kim’s due date was July 18, and she’s never been more than a day overdue, so this is a new one for them. Of course the main thing is that little Tyler will be born healthy, and the delivery will go well. A new baby is such a great blessing!
I guess you all have your food assignments for the family reunion. Holy Cow, it’s practically here! If anybody isn’t sure what they’re supposed to bring, contact Vanessa. Her text message said that the schedule will be similar to what it was 2 years ago, with a beach day Friday, and on Saturday a morning bike ride, Go-karts, and a trip to Bloomington Lake. I can’t wait! We’re bringing our younger cats because we’ve never been away from them for more than a day, and I’m afraid they’d freak out with us gone that long. I know we’re crazy about them, but we don’t have kids to worry about. Tina will be staying here. We don’t worry much about her.
We’ve had great fun with Sharon’s family coming and going. Sharon is always determined to pack every ounce of fun that’s possible into their Utah adventures. I admire her energy!
My neighbor Jessie does eyebrow microblading and eyeliner tattooing, so I’ve been having her work on my face. Thursday afternoon I was having my second session, lying on my back on our couch, and she had her little tool humming away, when she shouted out, “Stop that! You’re going to electrocute yourself!” I was so surprised I almost jumped up, but then I realized she must be yelling at a cat. Probably Scout. Sure enough, he was fighting with her electrical cord and biting it. I got up and threw him outside, and then we went on with my treatment. BTW, having your brows microbladed is a little bit painful, and having eyeliner tattooed on is really, really painful! When Jessie told me I could have my free touch-up in six to eight weeks, I wasn’t sure I would want it. Jessie is really good at what she does, though, and was one of the pioneers of “permanent makeup.”
So much happening! So much fun! Love to all, Mom
