I apologize for the lack of stimulating content lately here. The older child has not in fact, moved out. She is, however, a bit elusive in front of the camera. How is it that we can be so busy in the summer, with no school and more sunshine? But we are, and we have no one to blame but ourselves. And no matter how much we delight – or try to delight – in the mundane and the ordinary, there is still just so much that is mundane and ordinary. We rise, there is breakfast to be made, breakfast to eat, breakfast to be cleaned up and before we know it we start the ritual again with lunch. Throw dinner into the mix, a couple of baths to wash off the summer grime and in the blink of an eye we’re a couple of chapters into our latest read and trying not to doze off before 8 p.m. And the rains continue, popping up and thwarting plans for snowcones with friends, bike practice and gardening.
Tonight we’ll attempt to dodge the showers once again in our front yard with some live blues and friends (Stop by!). Maybe with camera, and maybe without. And my bike is here!!! So I’ll squeeze in a ride of my own and take the camera along. What are you up to this summer?
camping, camping and more camping – with a bit of hiking thrown in
…and lots of swimming – I left that out.
