It's Summer Time!

Once again, Pixar left me a blubbering mess.

When the flick was done, I was still unsure about how I felt. I still stand by my assessment that it isn’t in my top 5, but I think it is growing on me as I think about the film more and more. The view point of the inside of a person’s head based on the emotions involved was incredibly deep and certain parts really got to me. At one point, (SPOILERS!!!!!), the emotion consul goes grey, which signified the girl feeling nothing, which really hit me hard. It was truly a remarkable way to look at things. Oh, and don’t even get me started on BingBong. If I even think about him too much I will be unable to function today.

Saturday was spent at the Farmer’s Market for registration. We had about 30 signups, which isn’t as good as last time, but still not bad. It was crazy hot out, which did suck. That being said, the boys managed to have a great time. Tori and Angela’s sons were there too so the 4 of them went on some adventures. Brian is a teen and Chris is a year younger than Dax. The four of them get along amazingly well and went and rode the train, played at the playground and just wandered the park. I was very grateful to Brian. He so didn’t need to entertain the little kids, but he truly seemed to enjoy it which was nice.

This will sound strange but my proudest accomplishment of the weekend was having recreated the perfect Moons over my Hammy at home. Ken picked up some sourdough from Costco that was really good and so I set to work making my sandwich for dinner on Friday. Holy crap, it was phenomenal. I have made some just scrambled eggs with ham and cheese for work. I then ended up toasting the bread to make a sandwich. Not as good as the actual Moons or the one I made Friday, but still a nice and tasty breakfast.

We got the pool set up. These pools these days seem to not last too long. We will be impressed if this lasts the summer. The support beams are slightly bent (which happened when trying to take it apart last year) and sadly Lily also added some damage in the form of chewing on the straps. However, it should be ok for a while, which is the hopes. I know I intend on going in on these hot afternoons. I went in yesterday and found myself exercising in the pool. Walking in circles is a pretty good workout. It was also refreshing. Of course, the boys just love it and are quite content to swim for hours. Luna was sad that we didn’t let her in, but for now, it is for the best.

The boss is out of town for a sales meeting starting tomorrow afternoon. Sadly he doesn’t leave until after I leave for the day, but it is ok since I will be Trusty free for Wednesday and Thursday and much of Friday. It is like a small gift for my soul.

The only bummer of my week is that it is only the best of Kevin and Bean. Don’t get me wrong, there are some amazing gems to be able to listen to again, but their schedule for this tends to throw off my morning.
