They really are. The rose bushes are probably still alive, but everything else is dead except for my asparagus fern and the lantana. Even the hybrid, heat-resistant plants died. It just got too hot this summer.So it's been three months since I last posted anything. But I've been gone. In May Jennie and Ken invited David and I to come stay with them in Las Vegas where they were taking Ryan and Britni for an extra wedding gift trip. We had fun being with Jennie and family and they weather was nice, but I really dislike Las Vegas. It just seems so sleazy and degenerate to me.
In June I went to New York. I bought a ticket to be there for Anna's jaw surgery and then the surgery got postponed. I missed Anna so much and was so stressed out about other unsettling things that I just decided to go anyway. Joel went too and we had a great time, but I was gone for 10 whole days!
Three days after returning from NYC, I left for Utah, driving up with the duPonts (all but Jason). We were gone the 7th of July through the 17th. David flew up the evening of the 10th and drove back to Arizona with us.
Anna came out to Arizona on July 21st and stayed until August 5th.
On August 6th we had planned to go to Las Vegas again for David's 46th year high school class reunion. David's mom, Eilene, had gone to stay in a private home where she could have companionship and nursing care (as needed) and no one was living in her house. Vicki said that we could come stay in her home. We asked her if it was okay if Jennie and Ken came and stayed with us while we were there and she said it was fine. So Jennie and Ken met us in Las Vegas for a quick four-day vacation without kids. (The first time Jennie left without Kasia since she was diagnosed with diabetes.)
Hey! This one never got posted. I guess because I never finished it. Oh well. I'll just post this much and tell you about the rest of my summer later. Let's see how these photos diplay.
