Graduation Update/ July Goings On!

Only 1 more party to go!! This one near Akron! A long drive, but worth the CELEBRATION!! Then our life will get back to somewhat normal!!

We begin the month of July (starting) with the neighborhood fireworks show over the 4th, picnics, and enjoying the pool parties we are planning!! Always something to do around here!

The Air Base is now turned over to Wilmington, and we are eagerly awaiting the new businesses (supposedly) lined up to create new jobs here. Although, I have a feeling we will be waiting a while longer than some people think! It is also noted that DHL (Dumb-A**. Half-A**& Lame-- as many here in Wilmington like to refer to them!!) is hiring 350 new workers at the CINCI site this summer, makes me wonder how long DHL will keep that group on! Here, DHL is letting more people go, mostly the security people, trying to phase everything out by the end of their contract with the Air Park.

That is all for now, I have housework and laundry (I use CHEER!! Brightens and Cleans better that Tide ever did!!)

June ALREADY!!!

Good Grief!!! Half of this year is almost over ALREADY!! What happened to May?? It was so busy here, I feel like I blinked and it was gone!! Ham vent is over, GARAGE SALE (it was a HUGE SUCCESS!!! All TOYS---but not a good idea to have too often, as people are really looking for lots of different things! Open houses for New BABIES - DEVON you are so SWEET!!! We will see our new AVA next week!!
Lots of Graduate Open Houses, too! Congratulations to Chris, Emily, Lindsey, Austin, and our Master's Degree Karla!!!!!! Hopefully, we will have another graduate in August, too!!! You know who you are!!!!!

We are ready for June!! The pool is open and has been used everyday since the "Official" opening of Water Activities on May 31st! As long as we have had a pool (about 20 years now) we have always made our first swim of the year on Memorial Day---after our cookout that is!! Sometimes, the weather was rather cold, and we got in and out of the pool rather quickly, but the important thing was, we were in!! This year the weather here was bright and sunny and rather hot---89 degrees!! Plus, we have a large solar heater (the water was warm!) and that helps, too!! So after our impromtu picnic with our closest friends, a couple of us jumped in the pool, it was GREAT!!! We have been in the water every day so far!! I never thought I would use it as much as I do, but it's the best form of exercise there is!! I try to walk for an hour every day.

Thus, welcomes the beginning of June for us!! Have a Happy and safe summer!!
