Well, the Olympics are finally over. I'm not that big of a fan, just a few sports. And, before I continue, I want to say that trampoline should not be an Olympic sport...seriously.
My Mom is flying in, like I mentioned, in a couple of days. She's only going to be here for the weekend, though. I'm not sure what we're going to be doing. I know we're going to try and watch this sushi documentary we've been wanting to see. I think my Mom will like it.
The weather's been tolerable the last week or so. We've had a couple of thunderstorms and much needed rain. This past weekend, we were able to hit the driving range for the first time in years! It was a little rough at first, but once I got the rhythm going and remembering how to swing again, I started to do decent. I need to start practicing because I want to ask Laura's Dad and see if he wants to challenge another two family friends on a round of golf. I think we'll do pretty good. Anyway, it was fun. We took Connor and he had fun. Laura tried to hit a few balls, but I think she was frustrated at the difficulty. It does take practice. I think golf is really only fun if you're decent at it. Even I get mad when I don't play well and it's generally better than most of the general population.
What else. Connor is still well. I'm doing good during the weekdays. I'm not sure if it's easier than before, but his naps are getting better, so that in turn makes my job a little easier.
Recently, we discovered the library as a source of books...who knew??? I want to start going every week or two and get books for myself, as well as Connor. I do like getting books for cheap at Half Price Books for Connor, but since we go through a book a night pretty much, we might as well start borrowing because there's a limitless number at the library. I was even able to decide that I didn't want a couple of books I put on my Amazon to-buy list because it didn't look good.
So, it seems like Autumn is just around the corner. Weather getting "cooler", for the time being. I can't wait for the leaves to change color. I really want to head out somewhere and get some good shots this year. Last year I was very lazy and didn't get anything.
Oh, one big thing is that we're going to be staying in OKC for another year or so. We had a chance to move to Portland again, but it would just have been a nightmare to pull off in the time we had. It would have involved packing and storing everything but bare essentials within a month, finding a decent place, apartment or hotel, to say for a month that would take dogs/isn't crappy and having to look around in Portland (not sure how) for a place to move to, all with Connor. I think we chose the right thing. There will be more opportunities in the future. On the bright side, now we don't have to fly and travel for the holidays. :P
That's all for now.
