Summer time


We have been having a great summer - although I have been busy at work and it seems like mom has been busy at church with funeral luncheons - and I can't believe it is almost the end of August. Hopefully fall is around the corner. It has been a hot and humid summer in the midwest.

Mom is feeling good and in good health. Her weight (or lack of weight) is an issue but she definitely has an appetite so maybe she will just stay where she is and not lose any more weight. Her hair isn't growing back very fast - it has been going a lot slower this time around. It may not grow in all the way unfortunately.

My cousin Dennis and his family came to Geneseo for a visit a few weeks ago and it was good to see him and his wife Peggy and their son Zach. Mom really enjoyed the afternoon and getting caught up on life and Zach's activities. The last time I saw Zach I was able to pick him up! Now he can pick me up!

Mom is planning on a class reunion in October (Seneca High School) and I'm going to go as well. We haven't talked about any other traveling yet but I would like to do another visit to Tucson for one of Uncle Bernie's pork chops on the grill with a side of jalapeƱo peppers.
