My sister's Visit with me.

Although my sister was sick as a dog...that didn't stop our fun.  Here's a little background on us...we like making lists and doing projects together.   It's how we spend our fun.  Here's what we have done together since she arrived at 11:30 AM on Tuesday...it's Sunday night.  (Lisa leaves tomorrow at 5:00 PM...I'm sure we will accomplish more. 

In no particular order:

• Buy chairs for my front porch
  
• Buy a dress for my ballroom dance showcase
  
• Save plants
  
• Organize my office
  
• Buy, put together, and organize shelves for my basement
  
• Put weather stripping on doors (we did 1 of the 3)
  
• Put river rocks along the side of my house (this included digging an inch of ground up)
  
• Had dinner with Aunt Jane and Carolyn
  
• Dance lessons (twice)
  
• Grocery store
  
• Fix dress for showcase
  
• Haircut for Lisa
  
• Bank to deposit checks
  
• Check into Vegas trip [I couldn't quite swing it :0(... ]
  
• JoAnn's Fabric
  
• Planned Rick's duvet cover
  
• Picked up perscription
  
• Watched 6 movies
  
• Bought 3 lamps and put together
  
• Returned 1 lamp
  
• Made a chocolate cherry cake
  
• Had ice cream 3 times
  

The only things left on the list are sewing...this is all been accomplished while Lisa either had a temperature or was feeling very sick.  Think about what we could have done had she been healthy!   

It's been so much fun...and so many projects are done, too!  

Four Weeks of Summer Left

Finally, my summer is beginning.  FYI, testifying in court was a lot hard than I thought.  I don't think I will blog about it any time soon.  If you want to know all the gory details...email me or call me.   

My older sister is coming tomorrow....which means fun seester time!  We will probably get into projects...I'll keep you posted. 

By the way, the ballroom dance lessons are underway.  Two more weeks until the performance.   We'll see how I do.   I have a long way to go.   

My lesson in the Justice System

Without getting into specifics, I sat in a courtroom all day today. I am subpoenaed to testify in a court case. Thank God that my cousin had the time to sit with me all day. I would have been a nervous wreck without her. Thanks, cousin! I am testifying for a formal student in the sentencing part of the hearing. That means we have to wait until the jury comes to a verdict. The jury was out deliberating all day. It is amazing what the protocol is in a superior courtroom. I will write more later once the trial is over, but know the Justice system is an interesting way to spend a couple of days of your summer break.
