Just a few days left of summer break

This has been a really crazy, emotional, irratic and fun summer. Many levels of highs and lows, but that's cool. I guess I'm not really satisfied unless chaos of some sort is hovering.
Annalese is going into the 7th grade this year and will be going back to the Catholic school she was going to. We're not so happy with the level of education here, but I guess it'll have to do since it's where we call home. She cracks me up, that child! She'll take a shower with Twilight on and propped up on the sink, shower curtain half way open, movie turned up to the highest possible level... and showers forever while watching her movie. Who does that? Well, I had to try it tonight. I figured it must be really cool because this is how she does it every night she takes a shower. I happen to think it's pretty cool too, but don't tell her because she is really not that good at keeping the curtain closed enough to where the water stays in the shower area. So, we end up with 3 drenched towels. ERRRR!
Anyway, she's also sick with a horrible cough and congestion. Low grade fever too, so I took her to the doctor... only to get the ole'--- "it's a cold". I knew that, but somehow I felt I should be the good and cautious mom that I want to be and make sure it's not something else.
So, this weekend is approaching quickly and I'm not sure what we're going to do. I'd like to go to the lake again, but we'll see. It's been raining a lot here this past few weeks so maybe we'll get lucky and have enough sun to allow a boat ride or something.
Gary and Annalese are watching their usual movie before bed. Tonight... it's Alien. I hate sci-fi's but they seem to like it. Really they like a lot of movies I don't. Well, she likes just about any movie that has even half a plot. Kids are like that I guess. Take care of you, I'll be back sometime to ramble more and post a few new pictures from her birthday last month.
