It's official...summer is here. The kids made the Honor Roll, and that proves that they do, indeed, have brains. I wonder sometimes, but there is the proof. We've already hit the pool a couple of times, and my skin is starting to turn toasty tan. I may be lighter than some of my family, but I thank the Genetic Gods who passed on the ability to at least look darker than the wife of the Pillsbury Dough Boy.
In other news, the darling Czech Pecker and I have been driving all over the area, contributing to the profits of the Great Oil Barons, searching out areas where we might want to purchase a few acres for The Funny Farm and The Dog Pack. We've narrowed it down to a couple of places, and, God and the real estate market willing, we will be putting a down payment down in August and hopefully will be out of this house and have it up for sale soon after that! We have a lot of work ahead of us, but I am really excited about the prospect of moving and building a new place.
Tomorrow, we have a small family reunion happening here in town! We have some cousins from Kentucky and from Germany meeting here, and we are getting together for a picnic. This will be the first time we've met the German side in person. It's always fun meeting new family. Hopefully, we won't scare the bejeesus out of them!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Summer is here, and I'm so ready.
PS: I may have to postpone doing water aerobics at least until I learn to self-wrap for this "Karloff" treatment..... :D :D It's either that, or wear Hefty bags underwater!
