So nice!

The weather has been just fantastic.  I've spent the majority of the last few days outside when possible.  Hope it continues, but they say maybe rain tonight and tomorrow.  Of course, we decide to have a cookout and Mother Nature turns on us.  Hopefully she'll put it off until after we're done.  We were calling the cookout the "uncover the camper party". 

The memorial for Jimmy was very nice.  Tributes from friends and a niece and sister.  Mary had one written out but just couldn't read so Jimmy's sister did.  There were so many people there to honor him.  The weather couldn't have been any better to let us know of his welcome into the arms of the Lord.

Jack finally took his blazer into a place we hope they can finally find what causes it to gasp and cut out so all the time.  Everything all the amateurs have tried only last for a few days.  He will be going to 5th grade camp again in 2 weeks and I do not relish the thought of being without a vehicle for 4 days.  Keep your fingers crossed for me that the get it fixed right. It's quite a busy place and he told them to let it sit for a couple days so get the real effect. 

Well the dryer sent the I'm done sound so I had better get with it.   You all have a wonderful weekend.

  3. Few things are as frustrating as unknown problems with a vehicle. As I told Beth yesterday the nice weather is heading my way next week where it looks to hit 80. My only regret is that I purchased an all wheel drive car last summer and never got a chance to enjoy the all wheel drive in the snow as we only had 9 inches all winter. Last year we had a total of 8 feet.

  4. I do hope all works out for the blazer. I guess there's few things that are as annoying as care trouble. We've got to get a timing belt and water pump changed out with our tax returns...just love money having to go to that but what can a person do?

  5. When you talked about the 'blazer' I thought you were talking about a jacket with gold buttons which is what we call a blazer in UK, so couldn't make much sense of the post, till the penny dropped :-) well I hope it gets fixed soon, or at least by now,
    I hadn't been getting any mails from your blog to say you'd posted, so sorry. i wonder if you have to keep re-newing the request, as one or two others have dropped off my mail list,
