MUCH better!

This countdown interruption is to report that I am now much happier with the blog background. I gave the ole colored stripes a chance because Keith liked them, but that was a fierce assault on the eyes. This I can live with.

The Big Fiver

and 6...

7 more days

I have 7 full days until my hectic work season returns to normal. And by hectic, I mean really, really, really crazy. The good news is that it's all about to slow down, and the potentially even better news is that my work might be featured in Newsweek magazine soon. Let's all keep our fingers crossed.

Come next Friday, I return to being the witty writer that I (think I) normally am. Until then, we are doing a picture countdown. Today's picture is Cousin Rhett locking Grady into a dog kennel with Cole presumably cheering Rhett on. Do it! Do it! I can just hear Cole saying; he's quite the instigator.

Happy 4th of July!

Tomorrow we head south to Florida to visit Gran GG and Grampie for a beachy 4th of July. Hope everyone has a great weekend! Check back next week, I have several blogposts ready to go and will dazzle you with those then.

Flashback alert! Here are the boys on July 4th, 2008, enjoying Avondale Estates' parade. All I can remember from that weekend is that I was exhausted, and it was hot. Look how bald the boys were!
