Tuesday, September 12, 2023 To get ourselves a treat! We went to a movie premiere tonight!! I read that a local Woodbury man made his first feature length film set in and filmed at our local (now closed forever) drive in movie theater, and that it was premiering at our local theater, The Woodbury 10.

Monday, September 11, 2023 It’s impossible to write that date and not think of the horrors that happened 22 years ago, but I don’t have any new thoughts to add today, so I am going to think my own thoughts about the sad subject and move on to happier things. Like the fact that my
Sunday, September 10, 2023 Benjamin, Sean, and I went mall walking this morning while Keith was playing at a church. I told them that it was nice outside and that we could just walk, but there was interest in buying something at the mall, so we went early to walk and catch Pokémon Gos. I
Saturday, September 9, 2023 We bought our house 6 years ago! What a good and fun decision that was. Keith’s idea was that we were done with the boy raising part of life and we should be on to the party having part of life. We have been trying to up our game this year

Thursday, September 7, 2023 I was housewifing today. I roasted tomatoes for tomato soup. I cooked bacon for BLTs. I cleaned up from making chili rellenos last night. I did laundry (and PUT it away). I scrubbed up big pans. I took a nap in the hot tub. Oh. That last one isn’t so housewifey.

Tuesday, September 5, 2023 The air conditioning fixing man came today and found a mouse that had fried itself and burned up a bunch of air conditioner controls while doing it. We needed some parts and some labor and then the air conditioning was working! We ran it for about half an hour – 3:30-4:00
Monday, September 4, 2023 Happy Labor Day! We invited friends over for brisket and floating and air conditioning (because their house doesn’t have duct work and therefore doesn’t have A/C) for our third nearly 100-degree day. They arrived just before noon and SURPRISE! Our air conditioning stopped working. It was 80 degrees in the house.

Sunday, September 3, 2023 We were expecting company, so we cleaned up all the stuff that has been filling the kitchen island – mostly party supplies – cups, plates, drink dispenser – still lingering because I wasn’t sure I was done inviting people over. I figured this is the official end of summertime, so I
