Thoughts, Happenings and Other Stuff

1. On Saturday, we had an impromptu family BBQ and it was so much fun. Wish we did that more often. I love my family.

2. I spent Sunday/Monday down at the Siuslaw River with D and his parents on their property.
It is gorgeous down there. We worked really hard cleaning it all up and getting ready for camping this summer. Wow, am I sore!

3. I, apparently do not understand the Mother/Son relationship. It's weird.

4. I will be super busy this week trying to get ready for a retirement party next Monday evening. I think I am starting to fret about it, but I don't know why. Mom is awesome and she has volunteered herself to help me all day on Monday. She's great, huh? And D is going to get off work early to help me too. Such great people, I tell ya.

5. We went and saw the Rose Festival fireworks on Friday night. I LOVED it. We went down to the waterfront, sat on a blanket and played farkle while we waited. It was a beautiful night and tons of fun.

6. I am pretty excited for my big sister to come and visit from PHX. Beach trip? I think so!

7. I am trying to give things time at work, and try to adjust to all the changes before I form an opinion...but it's hard. Things are so different.

8. I have learned that I am more relational than I thought.

9. Another one of D's cousins got engaged, so we have another wedding to go to this summer. I am so (not) excited. But I am sure that I will smile and have so much fun.
