Mid-life crisis, pre-menopause, or just old age...my state of mind lately changes like the Wisconsin weather. Waukesha is a smaller town west of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It's a neat town with a private college, a really cool downtown shopping district with lots of galleries and antique stores.

Off to Camp

My "little" girl went off to the big city of Madison, Wisconsin today for State 4H Congress. I believe she will learn about other cultures, leadership, volunteerism, organization, government--all the qualities you want your child to have. Other than volleyball camp last summer, this is the first time where she has gone off on her own. I really am not comfortable with this!

And to add to my stress, it is almost 10 p.m. and I still haven't received a call from her yet!

Holy Cow Batman - an entire day without rain!

Well not officially--it was sprinkling when we got up this a.m. But actually, it only wet the pavement and stayed dry the rest of the day today. First day in over a week. The height of the Fox River has gone down...hopefully things around Waukesha can get back to normal.

Father's Day today. We spent the morning with my parents, wishing my dady a happy Father's day. This afternoon I visited dad's best friend Jim in the Waukesha hospital. Also bought ladderball for us to play when camping. We played a few games this evening while preparing supper (steak, asparagus and potatoes--nummy!)

The weekends go by entirely too fast around here. blah.
