Tuesday

Glad Mum and Dad made it back safe and had a good trip. Talked to Dad on the phone this morning.

Chris is off work again today. He is not going anywhere, just wanted some time alone. He is taking the baby to daycare and his wife is at work. Talk about weird! Hal actually came in before lunch yesterday but didn't take in any work. When customers came in he ignored them and let me deal with every one. He was busy making magnetics for his truck all day. Ha! I have an order for (10) 4x8' banners to design and cut today. I thought it would be funny to have them ready for Chris tomorrow when he comes in from his vacation.

It sure is nice having Isla and James staying with us. Isla and I enjoyed the evening chatting on the deck till the mosquitoes got too bad around 9pm. She had an interview with a school in Okolona, MS yesterday. It sounds hopeful but we won't know till Friday. It is about 20 minutes from Tupelo. James had his first day of work at FMC yesterday and seems to enjoy it ok. Mike is busy as usual with work and finishing the sheetrock in the bedroom when he gets home.

I got a bonus at work so I enjoyed getting new curtains for our bedroom and curtain rods. Will be going to pick out paint on the way home today. I am going to paint a mural on one wall and the other wall will be a golden pecan color.

We are excited about Robert planning on coming to see us next spring.

Robert, Alastair and Mum and Dad, also Margo, look out for packages coming from me. I sent some by snail mail, so it may be a couple of weeks till you get them. Christmas in July. Ha! Margo will have moved into her new house now, I just sent her some stickers like Robert requested for wheely bins.
