Mother's Day in July

Life is busy.   With every one working,  it is sometimes very hard to all get together for a special occasion.    My son and his wife wanted to take me out to the Broadway Cafe for breakfast for Mother's Day this year.    With one thing and another,  it kept getting put off.

Today we went.  It was delicious,   and it was worth the wait!    It does not matter when you do things,  as long as you are able to do them.   Whether it be a day late,  a week late,  a month late.   It is the time spent together as a family,  and not the fact it was on a certain day.   The location does not really matter either,  when it comes to family time,  the food and drink no matter where you are;  it is being with your kids that is great, not what you are eating.   I would have been happy with having a cup of coffee at the local coffee shop,  it is the visiting that made the morning special.  Although I have to say the food was outstanding as usual!

Spending time with the ones you are the closest too.   The best feeling in the world.

Summer - Enjoy

When you live where there is snow for what seems to be six months of the year,  summer goes by,  much too quickly.

Take time to enjoy.  Sometimes it the days that there is nothing planned that is best day ever.   Last weekend was one of those days.

Last Saturday   Barry, my husband had work to do, as usual.   He has been working out of town during the week, so on the weekends is often playing catch up with the lawn, doing things for work, and he is so busy.

This day he had to go to his compound to load up some supplies for taking to work Monday when he left again for his week working away from home.  Usually I just stay home, but that day grabbed my gloves, and said I would come along and help. On the way we took a scenic  drive, wow is there water in a lot of places!   The rain that fell a month ago is still sitting in some areas.   I helped load a barrel and a half of cams (he has tried to explain what they are for, but I can't tell you back! ) spent time washing the truck, then we went for ice cream.  I bought,  and we toasted 36 years of marriage.  Our anniversary had been the previous Tuesday,  he was out of town,   but having an ice cream,  and just being together,   really meant a lot to me.    It wasn't anything big, but it was nice to be away from tv, computer, we had a great visit. I think maybe it is sign we won't kill each other when he can actually retire!

So I hope you are all having a wonderful summer,   and you can spend some special time,  with the people you care about the most.
