Good Morning and Happy Saturday to all you fellow Beachers!
I finally got up at 5 am after tossing and turning most of the night. I've had an awful time sleeping through the night for the past several months, must be a menopause type of thing. I can't remember when I last had a solid night's sleep. Oh well, this too, shall pass.
We had a fantastic time yesterday at Dutch Wonderland. I felt great to just be a kid again, and I did things I haven't done in years! Cindy and I took the kids on all the rides, including the roller coaster and the giant water slide, and the kids loved it all. Their were a few rides that Maggie was too little for, but she was content to watch the rest of us crazy people get on them and scream our fool heads off on. The girls went home exhausted but very happy, so it was a total success.
More severe storms are due through our area today and tonight, so we'll probably lose power again. There are still close to a thousand homes waiting to get their electric back since Tuesday's storm. I feel sorry for them trying to cope in this heat and humidity. A lot of people have just gone to shelters for the duration.
We just have our usual weekend shopping to do today, and Monica and the girls may come out later, depending on the weather. I plan to get the laundry done and catch up on some reading. Jake is ready to go now, so he's hounding me to get off the computer.
Ciao for now!
