It's been five weeks since I've posted here! I'm pretty sure this has been my longest break, by far, in the 8.5 years I've been blogging. In that time, I've been extremely preoccupied with our basement and getting rid of stuff, we went on a week-long road trip, and the girls have started school and all activities except ringette. The good news is: I have July's roundup and half of August's written (coming soon to the blog - I hope). The bad news is: I haven't looked at photos from July or August -- and I don't see a whole lotta spare time in my future. Well, I must squeeze it in somehow! While I'm still committed to our basement projects, I absolutely cannot start October with three months of unprocessed photos. Nope; gotta get it done.

Quotes I Like
Peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart - Unknown

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. - Wayne Gretzky
You are getting your wants confused with your needs. - Stacy Julian's dad
We are weaving character every day, and the way to weave the best character is to be kind and to be useful. Think right, act right; it is what we think and do that makes us who we are. - Elbert Hubbard
I have made this letter longer than usual, only because I have not had the time to make it shorter. - Blaise Pascal
Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self. - Cyril Connolly
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
