July 24, 2011

Another month has passed so quickly. We seem to be constantly on the run but not accomplishing nearly as much as we had planned!!

I spent a long weekend in TX for Mom's 95th birthday. So much fun and she is doing amazingly well. Got to see my kids and grandkids. Sure do miss them while we are out and about....do get to talk to them all the time tho.

Haven't really been able to do too much sightseeing this month because I used 4 of my days off to go to Texas. Tomorrow will be my first day off and here in the last 3 weeks. We are planning to go to Perkins Cove and maybe Boston again.

The weather has been another factor in our not getting much accomplished...103 degrees in Maine. I could stay in TX for that!!!! However, it does not last long and the nights cool off much more than at home. One of the problems here is AC. Very few places have central air (mostly window units). With so many people using power, we have lost electricity the last 2 days in the afternoon for several hours. Many people go off and leave pets in their RV's....thank goodness none of them perished.
