last day of July

I snapped this on the way home from the Scrap Shack last night 

the last day of July was gloriously awesome

truly a beautiful day ...

August

the last month of summer

it amazes me how we try and cram a years worth of living into 3 months

and as I age -- the months fly past way to quickly

I spent the last day of July 

resolving Mn Rev and IRS Issues

calculating and preparing a heap of payroll

carrying more crap out of the basement and tossing it out

chopping weeds and killing grapevines at the office

(find the umbilical cord and they will wilt away)

it was a good July 

and August -- oh August

1.  there will be a vacation (or two)

2.  there will be a County Fair (or two)

3.  there will be oodles of lake time

4. all my extended tax returns will be done

5.  all my outdoor office projects will be done ;)
