Thunderstorms played havoc last night bringing us an unusually mild summer day today!! Our high temp was around 87 and definitely with less humidity. I made good use of the gorgeous day! I made a pretty big dent in the tangled mess of weeds that has been trying to overtake my front flower bed. I also made a pretty big dent in my 'to-do' list, too! YEAH ME!!
We're headed off to the beach tomorrow...after I complete a small flurry of errands, first. One of my sil's is coming, too! My first beach house guest!! More furniture is scheduled to arrive this Thursday. That should be the end of my furniture buying for awhile. The loft and office both still need 'real furniture'--but the loft is where the kids play Wii and construct elaborate cities...so having large amounts of open floor space is a huge plus!
I have some 'before' pix of the empty rooms and will be taking some 'after' pix--I promise to share them. And now that the beach house is mostly furnished, I hope to convince you to come visit!

I need a holiday from the 'testosterone'
OMG!!
Two days straight now, our pool has been the un-official party central for the boys. My cupboards are barren of even the remotest crumb resembling junk food. Yes, there is still food in my pantry....just nothing that a 'tween or teen would allow the general public to see them ever consuming. And Yes, I've been commanded that a trip to the grocery store is vital to their health.
I think I have heard & seen every possible way to make 'fake fart' noises. I didn't realize that boys in groups can scream just as loud as girls. And don't even ask about the jokes....Help! I need a vacation from these testosterone units!!

Relief!!
Yesterday, I had my appointment for the additional magnified digital mammogram. As many of you know, I do not like waiting whenever there is a potential negative outcome. The waiting is over. A radiologist reviewed my previous mammogram and read the additional magnified views on the spot--yes, while I waited.
She determined that the single microscopic calcification seen on my mammogram in May '08 was a non issue and there is no evidence of cancer or precancerous tissue (from a mammographic standpoint)in my breasts. WHEW!!
Thank you for your prayers as I really do appreciate them. I am thankful that I can look forward to another screening mammogram next year. I am also incredibly thankful for being given an answer on the spot. Do yourself, your loved ones and me a favor---don't forget to do your self breast exam each month and schedule your screening mammogram when needed. Preventative medicine is power over cancer and other diseases.
