Wednesday - June 18

Another hot one and we Nomads are oh so ready to get this sale over with - too darn much work!    But, on the bright side, we have surely cleared out a lot (with plenty more for probably another sale as I haven't even touched the Christmas stuff.).   Mark says "NO way"!!!   
 And for those who know me, well......that's another story as far as just how much Christmas décor I have accumulated over the years!!!
 
So, our day started with breakfast, a little weed pulling and then the boys and I were off to pick up Anne and take her to a hair appointment.    She was happy to get out of the house.    While she was getting all spiffy with her new "do", the boys and I ran several errands and then picked her up, got lunch at McDonalds and took them home.    I had lunch with my Exchange Club.    This month of June, we are giving out several awards and today was all about a choosing a high school student who has overcome adversity and gone onto graduate from high school (sometimes under extreme issues).    The girl who was chosen gave a wonderful talk (she is from Africa and came to America in 2006 when she was 10 years old)!     Excellent choice and certainly wish her all the best as she pursues her dreams.
 
Last week, we honored a member of the community who consistently flies the American flag (Proudly We Hail)....our club is all about Americanism (patriotism), youth programs, community service and our main focus - Prevention of Child Abuse.
 
While the boys were at their house, they went thru a bunch of books and brought over to add to the sale.   I picked them up after lunch.
 
Mark spent the day with his Mom and sister, Karen in Dixon.   He drove thru some nasty storms, but nothing for us - just very hot and humid!
