Yes, Happy August!

I've been through a bit of a rough patch at work lately, so I took Thursday through Saturday off and went camping with the boys. Before I left I spent some time cleaning the laundry room and kitchen properly. What a joy it was to come home to only surface clutter and know the deep cleaning has been done. There are only twelve days left of school this semester, and I'm just thankful that I've been able to keep my head above water in my children's literature class. I've needed to read between 3 and 8 books per week, so most of my time has been spent with my nose in a book. But the boys have been great, and I've found some wonderful things to share with them.

Good luck with the skunks, SRS. I lost my head and posted the skunk scent elimination recipe to MOAB---but Mike's wife may find it comes in handy.
