Life Lately (Part 3)

My head is getting back to normal. Normal for me. That’s not to say anything about me is normal.

Will I be sharing blogs more consistently? Hopefully. We’ve been winging it over here for a while now. That probably won’t change any time soon.

I don’t remember where we left off. The boys are finished with “school” for the summer. We’re gonna make Preston read and do math, but his computer work is complete. I feel like we’ve been super busy, but I have little to show for it. Preston almost sliced off his thumb with his Army knife this week. That was exciting. *insert 500 eye roll emojis* He’s home and okay. We’re taking him to see a hand specialist in a week.

Brag ‘O Bit – The other night when Preston almost sawed off his thumb, obviously we had to rush out the door to the ER. Thankfully my friend, Josh, was here – he’s an RN. Sorry for the mental image, but there were pools of blood all over the house from Preston running around in a panic. I looked at JP and said, “we have to go, I need you to clean the floors.” Anyone who knows JP, knows the gravity of that request. I’m thrilled to report, he handled it like a champ! He went from room to room with cleaner and cleaned every last drop. Once upon a time, he would have panicked, thrown up, and diagnosed himself with a blood-borne disease. We’d still be talking about it. He did take photos of everything and we had to go thru them at 2 am so he could verbally recount the entire night to me. That’s okay! I was so proud of him! They had therapy yesterday. I’m sure Amelia got an earful!

Jackson and I spend an embarrassing amount of time playing with Snapchat filters. Or Snapchap, as he calls it.

JP and I went to see the Braves play the Mets. The game was AMAZING! They won in the 11th inning with a walk off three run homer. (Do people say homer anymore?) JP cares nothing about the game, but loved his $7 Sprite and Dippin Dots. He really enjoys seeing his dad and watching him work.
Our sweet Cassie turned sixteen!
Father’s Day was good this year. We actually celebrated Papa, Cassie’s birthday, and Jack and Faye’s 52nd anniversary together at Monterrey By The Mall – Papa’s favorite spot!
We’ve been hangin with the twins and loving EVERY minute!

What else? I guess that’s about it. July is going to be a very busy month. We have a beach trip planned, and Preston and I are working at Camp Joy NC for a week. I’ll share that content with you, so stay tuned…
