The beginning of August

The first three days of August (and this past Saturday as well) have been absolutely beautiful days.  The temps have been in the low 70's with no humidity.  We've enjoyed a couple of evenings outdoors, and Sunday evening I even decided we should eat outside...I never want to do that!  It's just been so spectacular though, and I want to soak it all up.

This is the first August in so very many years that I will be working each day.  It's such a big adjustment, but I'm grateful for the income.  Overall, it hasn't been a huge adjustment, although I am getting up hours earlier each day than I did before.  While Andrew enjoys the extra income stability, he has mentioned that he misses our care free days we had.  This job is a good compromise though, and I'm grateful for that.

Today will be another beautiful weather day!  It's a fabulous way to begin August!
