Lazy Week

I've had a lazy week or so. But I have gotten some things accomplished, though it never seems like I get as much as I'd like to done. Our den is clean and I have a new printer. Father's Day presents have arrived. Birthdays celebrated, some things done at work.... I'm very grateful to have jobs that I enjoy and that I am able to work without worry at this point. I am also grateful to have the creative outlets that I have. (As distracting as they may be sometimes.) Given what's happened with many friends lately, I'm grateful for the health of my family and my son. I have a wonderful cousin who is also a best friend, and I have some happy memories of friends from younger days. I spent a great deal of time the past week or so going down memory lane from junior high and early high school years. Some of those treasured people I miss, but I'm glad I still have remembrances of them to hold on to. I'm also grateful for the summer! Teachers may not get paid a lot, but our summers are certainly nice!!
