Hello Monday – 7/14/25

Advertisements

Happy Monday! I’m starting the week with Holly and all of you! I hope you’ll link up with us for Hello Monday!

We had another good summer weekend. I’ve got EIGHT GREAT things to share with you so let’s get to it!

1-We spent some time at the pool Friday afternoon. Luke hung out with friends, Jack worked, and I hung out with friends and read. It was a pretty great afternoon. When Jack got off work, we headed to 7-11 of course! It was Slurpee day! We did not see the tongue tattoos but I hear they had some this year.

2-Jack had his first driver’s ed driving time on Friday night and I went to dinner with my parents and my mom’s cousin. It was so good to see all of them! We had a great time and Jack did a great job driving while we were enjoying a delicious dinner.

3-Saturday morning was an early one! We swam at a pool about 50 minutes away. It was a great meet, even though we didn’t win. Jeff’s mom and dad came to cheer on the boys and it was great to see them.

4-We got home from the meet around 2:30 and we were all starving. I was in no mood to make anything for lunch so we got Qdoba. We haven’t had Qdoba in a long time and I forgot how yummy it was (for fast Mexican food).

5-My Prime day purchases almost all came at the same time on Saturday in individual boxes. It looked like Christmas time on the front porch. I am returning a few things and bought some **school supplies** (I hate to say those words in July) because they were a great deal.

6-Jack and Jeff played golf on Saturday night and Luke and I chilled at home. It was just what I needed after a hot 5+ hours of coaching. I read two books that I’ve had for a long time from the library. They are pretty neat retellings of Greek myths.

7-I got a few things done around the house on Sunday before I headed to my parents’ house. My mom was hosting a cousins reunion this weekend. One of her cousins passed away in February and they were having a celebration of her life on Sunday. It was great to see everyone, even if we were together for something so sad. We played her favorite music and looked at a lot of old pictures.

I’m the taller of the two girls in green dresses. We think this was 1985 or 1986.

8-I got a great walk in Sunday night in my weighted vest while I was talking to my sister. I can’t wait for her to come visit in a few weeks. Even at 9 pm, I was sweating like crazy. It is still so humid here. The humidity was 84% and the air felt like soup. I like hot and humid, but even I am ready for a little break.

We are heading into a pretty busy two weeks. We have five swim meets, a party, hopefully two concerts, and a swim team banquet. Jack and Luke both have swim practices and Luke has some pickup soccer. I am going to do my best to be here a few times a week, but we’ll see. I hope you have a great day full of sunshine and books!
