This was a wild Friday. We had to try to fit a lot going on as Tropical Storm Elsa passed nearby.
First, we had to get Emmie's car inspected and double-checked, which is always fun in the rain.
We also had to do twenty things around the house.
In order to prepare for our trip to DC, we watched NATIONAL TREASURE, which is a great summer movie as well and might be added to our collection. It was a lot of fun to watch!
This day was a huge rainout tropical storm Elsa approached.
Emmie also was dealing with her migraines still.
All and all a really crummy day!
This has been the summer of tapdance for me. Emmie and I signed up two do tapdance, but for her, it has been a disaster. We did have to miss the first two lessons. She had a problem with the 3rd lesson - we did not want the kids to have to be dealing with a passing thunderstorm that day - and she had the migraine for the 4th lesson. So, I went solo again.
But I have to admit it is fun. I am learning a lot and getting some good exercise. It was great to see a friendly face at that class, too. And the teacher, Ms. Michelle, is great.
I think we plan to do it again in fall, too.
All of the dust from cleaning the porch seemed to have a negative affect on Emmie. We did play 45s and watch Jaws 3 (something I was actually interested in watching, which is a SHOCKER).
Emmie and I partnered up, but we lost to straight games to Bri and Kiff. Yikes!
I think the loss sparked a migraine for Emmie that lasted two more days.
The highlight of this Monday was going to Gloucester to see their fireworks. They had been reschedule from the 3rd of July because of rain. So they were postponed until today - July 5th. It was sort of like a second Fourth of July.
We actually went to Stage Harbor park. We had a great view (although a car horn kept going off). We also saw drones try to fly through the fireworks - always a bad idea! But it was a great show!
By the way, earlier in the day, we redid the porch. It looks great!
Happy Fourth of July
Today was the fourth of July, but really not much happened. It was sort of a rain out. It was the first fourth without Mom 2 and Dad 2 was in rehab. We did our own mini grill inside, but it was rather quiet.
We continued our summer series by watching Jaws on TV. We had a lot of fun with that!!!
