What a month!

In this past month we have been to Iowa, stayed ten full day, came home to missing mail, and ants invading our a/c unit. Yes, ants can interrupt the proper mechanical function of an air conditioning unit.

We went up to Iowa to spend some time with my family. Thought it would be a great thing. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't what we thought it would be either. I really did enjoy spending time with my nieces and nephews. It was the first time I was able to meet a couple of them and it was nice.

We spent the first few days on the east side of Iowa and then headed to the West side of Iowa to spend some time with the other side of the family and visit some friends that I hadn't seen in awhile. Which was really nice.

I was able to talk to the one cousin that I was the closest to growing up. We exchanged phone numbers to keep in touch better than we have before. Which will be really nice. So much has changed.

I was also able to visit two of my uncles who were able to give me information regarding my family trees. I was able to fill in some blanks that I thought I had hit brick walls with.

Next on my agenda is to finish my syllabi for this coming school year, fix the pool, and finish the blanket I started maing for my youngest sister's soon to be newest child. (She can stop having children until she marries someone now!)
