Some on Saturday

• The girls have been enjoying summer break. They have been taking swimming lessons and are learning to get their face wet, which I'm told might be necessary with swimming. :)
• I had a very long week at school. Senioritis is in full swing.
• The lightning storm we had a few days ago knocked out our TV and computer for two, count them, two days. We were beside ourselves. The kids were like, "Let me get this horrifying news straight- no TV and no computer?" Their equally horrified parents stared back at them and nodded solemnly. Yes, we are addicted to our techy things. I'd like to say that we all learned something profound about doing without our electronic stuff and all bonded around a bonfire singing happy songs. Rather it was a happy, happy morning today when Jay somehow fixed the connections.:)
