First post of the summer
Day 1 of summer.
IT IS VERY HOT.
I do not recommend today:
I most certainly do not recommend wearing pants today. Especially skinny jeans. Yeah, learned that the hard way.
I do recommend today:
What I would recommend is get wet and/or get in front of the fan–and don’t leave it until tomorrow morning.
Today’s news:
First of all, on Saturday there was a “city-wide” yard sale at Mrs. Fairbairn’s house. The reason “city-wide” is in quotations is because only Mrs. Fairbairn, another couple, and Dad, Mom, Bekah and I were actually selling stuff. There was a whole lot of furniture. I mean as in that was all you could see from the street, not counting the free wood. There was even a freezer being sold. Bekah and I had one-hundred-some-odd articles of clothing and accessories, most of which went back to from whence they came. Most of the money we earned was from one pair of women buying clothing for a young girl. The other tiny bit was one thing we sold to a girl in college. The adults sold a whole lot of stuff, but nobody really buys clothes at a garage sale. Oh, well. As Daddy would say, it’s money we didn’t have before.
Wow, Mrs. Wheat is right. I do use a lot of passive verbs…
Anyway, moving on to Sunday. Yesterday, we went to church in the morning, and I must say, the passage that was studied for the service was great. It was Ezekiel’s description of God and and angels, and it was absolutely perfect description-wise. There isn’t a thing left out.
In the evening, we celebrated my mom’s and Auntie Katie’s birthdays and Fathers’ Day all at once. Because Grandma is out of town, we had Papa, Auntie Katie and we Gonzalezes. Yes, that’s it. But it was very nice to have a celebration with relatives, and Auntie Katie enjoyed reading Bekah’s autobiography from writing class. 
And today is the first day of an extended sleepover with one of Annah and Alaynah’s friends. We walked the dogs a little while ago, and as aforementioned, I was (still am) wearing skinny jeans, so it was very difficult to pull off my knee socks when we got home. Yes, sigh, knee socks. I have a feeling there will be much playing, fighting, screaming, laughing and all that jazz over the next two days.
Conclusion of blog post for the first day of summer.
