Flying By

The month of August is zipping by. As colorful and beautiful as the fall months are, I can't enjoy them because I know what follows. Yesterday my daughter got her hair cut and highlighted as she has school registration in a couple weeks. Drat! The first back to school activity.

Work was so hectic that my coworker and I glanced at the clock and said, "We've only been here two hours!" The majority of orders that I took were for sympathy arrangements. After work, I finally made it to the dentist (after two cancellations--my husband's oblation and work). I then took the big bus home.

I have not been sleeping well. I wake up, my mind begins whirring, and I'm up for the duration.

My cousins wrote a wonderful obituary for their father. It helped to put closure on his passing. I wish they had organized an informal get together.
