It has rained pretty solidly around here for the last 24 hours. Nothing fun about that at all. There is a damp chill in the air, but also humidity. I don't have to leave my house today and for that I am grateful. Andrew isn't so lucky as he is at the school helping to collect baseball uniforms.
Andrew posted his last school assignment yesterday, and Thomas seems to be finished as well. It is kind of hard to feel "excited" about the end of school, because not much is really changing. It is all just so surreal in that regard.
We aren't really sure what our summer is going to bring. We cancelled our vacation that was supposed to begin in about ten days. We had only paid the deposit, and it appears as though we have a chance at getting that back. The Billy Joel concert we were supposed to attend was rescheduled for next year. We plan to try that again, and it appears as though our lodging will allow us to transfer the money paid to next year as well. Thank goodness! The pool won't be open until late June at the earliest, although they are still going to try to get in a summer swim season. I am hoping our family will enjoy walks, some time at the state park beach, and things like that this summer. Because my working is up in the air (and will certainly be reduced if at all) we are hoping to be a little more frugal, but want to enjoy our time with the kids.
We are cautiously optimistic that Catherine will be able to begin school in a "normal" environment in August. I am so excited for her, and also very grateful that while she will be on her own, she will be close by.
This dreary day causes me to want to sleep, but there is much work to be done!
