I know I have not been posting like I guess I should but ohh well. I have been busy working and trying to get some things done around the house. It just seems that I don't have the energy to get anything done. I am still trying to get the inside of the house repainted and the lawn keeps growing with all the rain we have been getting. A couple of weeks ago we had a tree split and land across the driveway and I got it cleared from the drive and had to wait about two weeks before I could get the rest of it taken care of. Well the tree is now back in the burn pile witch is another thing I have to do is get all of that stuff burned off. This past weekend I did take a mini break and went to Charlotte to see a friend for the 4th. I spent just under 48 hours there but still had a good time. John, Mary Shannon and I went to a birthday party for a friend of theirs on Saturday and then Sunday morning we went out for brunch at Pewter Rose. That evening the three of us meet up with some of their other friends and went to the community college parking deck to watch the fireworks that the city was doing. Charlotte put on a pretty good show. I was impressed at some of the things that they can do with fireworks. I came back home on Monday and went right back to work and now I am taking my next two days off trying to get some things done at the house. Who knows if it will happen but it's got to be done sometime.
