We had a nice July 4th. We stayed home as usual. We grilled some steaks, had some red, white, and blue drinks and desserts. The lack of community firework displays this year encouraged people to put on their own displays. Once it got dark, I could hear fireworks non stop for an hour.

Wow, busy, busy weeks here. I seem to be really busy the past few weeks and some things on my list are not getting done. I feel though that what I am busy with at the moment is what I need to be doing and other things can wait. I know in the end all will get done.
Just need to prioritise and delegate and not worry about the small things.

Yes! Some weeks things that aren't on our list are still important things that need to be dealt with properly.
