Fun weekend with Tara and Todd, Carli and Jeremy, and of course, Ted. We went to Buck Creek State Park in Springfield, Ohio. We used to rent a cabin there when the girls were little...my sister Lori and her family, and friends Joan and Randy and family would go, too. We would take motor and sail boats, bikes, fans, toys,skiis, and lots of food and have a grand time. It's amazing how small the cabins look now that we are all adults!! We didn't take any boats or bikes or toys this time b/c the weather was the pits. BUT, we had a good time in spite of it. Gave us an excuse to be lazy and watch the Buckeyes, do some reading...we did get to build a fire and roast hotdogs, make S'mores...so the day wasn't a total bust. Sunday was nice, but chilly. We had a picnic and then had to venture home. Ashi stayed with Tara's dogs at their house...he was very tired when we got home! Coney and Katie just have too much energy for him! The dog sitter said that he was "neurotic"...I agree!

Awaiting news from Kelsie. She had terrible ear pain on the flight to Prague. Then her phone was stolen. That really makes a mom worry...she was traveling alone, and then to have no means of communication...can't wait to hear from her...hopefully later today.

I have started on medication for headaches...if it doesn't work, will have to have a CT or MRI to see if it's something more serious...please pray that it works! I have been having daily headaches that don't always go away with Exedrin...which in the past has been my life-saver. I have to think about my dad and he always said "this getting old isn't for sissies". I'm starting to think that I understand what he meant! Almost a year since he's gone...miss him so much.

Carli loves her new little puppy. Sounds like a good one, too. It's nice that she has company when Jeremy is gone. Now, if Molly could just help her study....!!!!
