A Whirl Wind Week

As summer's ending the schedule heats up (including squeezing in the relaxation events). Saturday we visited friends for kayaking on Glen Charlie Pond, supper, and relaxed partying. Sunday Corey & I went and set up the final 4-H tent for the upcoming fair, then we all headed to Hanson for swimming and canoeing. Monday was final shopping for back-to-school, which was Tuesday - getting them out the door in the morning and filling out the emergency/permission forms in the evening. Wednesday was our adventure-filled Anniversary "off" day - kids on the bus, 5 mile bike ride, train to Boston, subway to the Library for research, lunch with Mary, more research, trains back home, kids to 4-H, out to dinner, pick up kids. Thursday more 4-H after work and grocery shopping and send Sue TO work. Friday - straight from work to bring Yon to work to 4-H (fair opens at 5:00pm) to catch up with everyone else. Although the fair runs late on friday, all day & night saturday, and sunday morning - that is actually a sort of relaxing time where other than keeping a loose eye out on the kids, I get to poke around all day and sit/watch and bid on a few pieces of junk/treasure at the auction on both nights, and eat fried dough. Sunday afternoon brings the Edwards Family cookout. With any luck, Monday will be a day without too much labor - as I sit around putting off for another day all of the obvious cleaning/fixing projects that I have been putting off for another day!
