It's me!! It's been so long since I've sat down to write to anyone! I'm so bad, but sooooooooooooooooo busy! Between work, entertaining...or should I say chauffeuring children during their summer break, and other daily duties, it doesn't leave much time to rest or write! But all is good!

My father-in-law is hanging in there still. We went to visit over the fourth of July. He wasn't feeling very well while we were there but was happy to see us all.

My husband has been in Tennessee all this week supervising a new plant owned by the company he works for. His stories of it have been quite amusing...think Dukes of Hazzard! They've been begging him to transfer there to work for their plant, and I told him only if the signing bonus is enough to pay off our current house and get us out of other debt!! :-) I doubt they could afford that!!

I was asked a few months back by the owner of the hair salon that I have my hair done if I would take her daughter's senior pictures. She saw the pictures I took of my kids last fall and loved them. I said sure, but was hoping she'd forget because I was afraid I couldn't do a good enough job. So last week I practiced with my son's friend who will also be graduating this year and his pictures turned out so good that I've already been asked by two other people to do theirs!! I made some prints and when I went to pick them up the woman said she could only give them to me if I had the signed copyrights to them. I said huh?? She said, these are professional prints. I said to her, uh no, I took those yesterday, and she proceeded to pull them out of the envelope and said THESE?? real rude like I was lying, and I said yes those and the ones of my flowers that are in my back yard!! Then I said, but thanks I'd love to be a professional photographer. She just ignored me and rung up the order. But I kept smiling feeling so proud!! LOL I had had my camera in my purse and wished I had it so I could have shown her.

Well, I must go fold clothes, wash more clothes, probably was a few dishes, figure out what I'm wearing to work, and feed the dogs.

I may not have been writing but you've all are always in my prayers!

Take care!
Connie
