It's been a pretty awesome week and a very busy month! Last week Christina and I went to Olympia Convention. She met a young lady that she has become very good friends with. Both girls over the years have wondered why they didn't have someone that was a good friend but now they don't need to worry anymore! :) Her mom made the comment that she didn't know that there was another person out there like her daughter. They have both been through a lot and both could really care less about the things that typical girls worry about. Hair, clothes, etc. The really cool part is that as a kid I actually played her dad when we lived in California! We got to talking and realized that we were in the same field the first 11 1/2 years of my life. That led to me meeting another lady that I knew as a kid which led me to being able to get in contact with another lady that I was good friends with when we lived down there. We had a nice chat Sunday evening when I got home. Hard to believe that is coming up on 40 years ago!!! Yikes!!!
Then my cousin that labors in Florida came in Monday and another cousin (Cindy) from Montana called Monday. Turns out she was in Gresham and I think she may have realized that's where I live and thus called. So we had a taco dinner and a wonderful visit. It had been several years since I saw either one of them and it was the first time I have been able to have a nice chat with Cindy. So the last week I got to see a lot of people that I haven't seen a long time!
Business has been trucking right along. I have two new clients this month, maybe a third??? We'll see. I do find it interesting how some decide to use someone else and then a year or two later I end up hearing from them. It's happened quite a few times now. Now to fit everything in around Boring Conventions!!
Garden is doing awesome, at least what's left of it!! Due to those critters I mentioned last time I have almost no tomato plants left. :( But the container that I'm using for potatoes is now filled. We'll see what I have in a couple of months. The cool thing is I can haul it under the porch when it rains so the plants don't drown. This week has been HOT!!! Yesterday 101* and today 100* and tomorrow is supposed to be 100*. We'll see!! It was nice and windy today but it seems to have calmed down tonight so hopefully that means it'll cool down. When the east wind blows in this kind of weather the lows can stay in the 70's. Luckily it hardly ever happens!!!
Pictures will be for another day since the phone app has gone away and I have to download lots of pictures to get the ones I want!! Guess I'll do that tomorrow! Pictures on Instagram-amekvold
