Grateful: Summer Solstice Edition
A few things for which I am grateful this week:
- Got ready for our weekend in Door County without having to stay up all night.
- Actually not checking work email from Thursday noon until on our way home Sunday afternoon (I only read them. Didn’t respond to them! and I regretted it as soon as I did it and spent the next hour trying to forget what I had read.)
- Beautiful weather on the weekend.
- A calm Lake Michigan when we went fishing
- Only occasionally feeling weird about having G with us on this outing
- Spending some time at Whitefish Sand Dunes State park again
- Delicious meals…and mostly being able to avoid chain food. A little harder when traveling with the dogs you can’t leave in the car because of the weather.
- Stopping at Lambeau Field. I didn’t really want to, the boys I think could have taken it or left it, but G was trying so hard to give them an experience it was cute.
- Catching some salmon on our fishing trip.
- Seeing both the sunrise and the sunset on Saturday.
- G taking the boys out to get lunch while I took a nap on Saturday. And bringing me back a turkey club sandwhich.
- G staying at the house for a couple of hours after the boys went off with their dad on Sunday.
- Menards has my selected paver bricks on sale — so a little procrastination will be saving me some money
- JH’s friend George the Mechanic fixed my car while we were in Door County
- Traveling with G worked. So, there’s that.

It sounds like a great trip with all of your men. I’d be grateful too.

someone once told me, “if you can travel with someone, it will work out.”. I love it, “so there’s that”.
