Other than it being hot as all get out- there's been a lot of fun stuff
Sunday we had family over to celebrate Andrew heading off to Clemson University for graduate school. So proud of him and know he's going to do great. It will be strange having a child living out of state, but he won't be that far way.
Sophie and Andrew's dog Cocoa did great with all the extra people around. Even Charlie seemed okay with them. Sophie taking a snooze under the table. She and Cocoa seem to be tolerating each other fairly well, but I think Sophie will be glad when Cocoa leaves with Andrew!
Hanging up artwork-we didn't do this at the last apartment, so I'm pleased that this is happening now. Makes it feel a bit more home-y AND we now have a table and chairs!
Having Andrew at home also means having his mess, and I am totally okay with this, and I have to admit some of that is mine too! The other day we went for Happy Hour snacks and then I drove around so Andrew could play Pokemon-GO. Believe it or not this was a lot of fun-kinda like a scavenger hunt. I remember the boys playing with Pokemon cards when they younger. It gave Andrew and I time together, and I also got to explore parts of Dunwoody-win-win in my book.
Finally got a Macbook! This is the Pro, and boy do I have a learning curve! I went back and forth about which MB would be the best for me, and I think I made the right decision. I got input from a lot of MB users. I am looking forward to taking a class or 2 at the local Apple store..
Sophie being Sophie-I think sometimes she wishes I wouldn't get up quite so early!
Other happenings include making serious progress on my BINGO card. I have just a few more squares to finish, and I'm going to give myself through September to get everything read. I have been making full use of the App Overdrive-where has this thing been?! Looking forward to brunch at Ra where Paula works on Sunday, then birthday knitting next weekend and meeting up with my quilting girls the next week. Making plans for projects and goals for the fall-hopefully there will be a weekend get away before the holidays come along!
Sometimes you need to update and reboot. musings and ramblings about life-knitting and whatever else comes to mind.

Being in a happy place
This week's prompt is such a good reminder to focus on the good around me-so what's making me happy?

9. Being extra productive during the last 6 days
8. Plowing through the block for this year's block exchange, am anxious to move onto other things, but can't til these are done.
7. Sophie coming home exhausted from her time at doggie day care-helped make #9 possible.
6. The wonderful and supportive women in my life right now.
5. Getting a chance to hang out with my sewing friends
4. Getting a chance to hang out with my knitting friends
3. The books I've read and am currently reading for the Book Riots Read Harder Challenge.
2. The deep purging of stuff over the last couple weeks.
1. being almost done with ALL THAT attached I-cord on my Aperture cardigan!
I'm sure I could list tons more, but I think these are definitely the top 10!
