The Kind of September

The words of a song come to mind, "try to remember the kind of September" as I write this blog. I do find is difficult to remember what has happened in the short-term; is that a sign of dementia?  Lord, I hope not.

One of the reasons I write this blog is to stimulate the memory and keep things on even-keel as much as possible. If I wait to long, things tend to get out of perspective and skewed a bit chronologically. And sometimes my opinion gets in the way of facts if I wait too long to make a written declaration. Of course my post will always have a bias in my favor in as much as possible.

We have had a season of "HOT" weather. My energy level has declined. The yard work at the house gets done, but not the way I want. The backyard flower beds have weeds galore, but they are green right now.

With everyone's help, Carolyn and Micah, we got the spa up and running again and it is good therapy even though it is still hot in the evening. Carolyn thoroughly cleaned the inside after we filled it an drained it once to get the "yuk" out. So far it is really clean and better than I remember it being before. Carolyn was also able to get some household work done to clean up our bedroom. I still have a closet to get repaired.

Micah just started his 12 hour shifts for harvest. He was hoping to get another job before harvest but it hasn't worked out yet.

Our church starts the new Journey Group sessions this week, so as coaches we were busy all Sunday morning getting groups signed up.

The application for my work grant has come through and so the next few weeks I will be putting the application together so I can continue working through 2014.

I know this isn't a lot of remembering but that's the story for this post.........

I did forget to mention that our dog, Titus, took a great dislike to me recently and has bit me twice. Once on the right index finger and once on my left second toe. I'm still limping.
