Brand New Month

Greetings again. here it is, august and it's still hot hot hot outside. it's time for another chapter of oh my god i can't believe i'm still here. for starters, this past weekend the parentals were here for a visit. mary & company were also here for alyssa's graduation. it was ok but we had to drive them (mom & dad) back. another road trip. before that we went to see the other part of the family. i'd like to show some pictures of that but i've been restricted....right now mary is somewhere trying to avoid chris in the caribbean. at least she's having fun.



got some sad news to report.......this past month saw the death of a longtime companion in our household. his name was hershey and was loved by everyone in our family. no longer will solicitors be scared away or outside conversations cut short by his insistent barking. you will be missed.....i'm just sorry i couldn't be there buddy....

we also lost a family member last month. one of our uncles passed away. even though i really don't remember his face, the fact that he was dad's brother brings this close to home. again, we couldn't be there but my thoughts are with everyone who knew him. i'm sure somewhere out there he will be missed too.


aside from that, everything has been going okay. work is the same, nothing new to report. boss is away on vacation for the next two weeks so @ least we don't have that to deal w/but the work will always be there. we were $90,000 away from meeting goal for july and things don't look too promising this month either. even though the work is there it is far from the 14.5 we need for this month but only time will tell.

bought a new car again. we finally took that sorry excuse for a vehicle back. not actually took it back but traded it in for a pt cruiser. we'll see how long this one will hold. wish me luck because i haven't exactly had the best of luck w/cars. i've had so many i've lost count.

hate to cut it short but i gots to go. until next time...chill...
