Pollen Blues!!

The weather is beautiful here today..in the high 70's. I love the sun, but the pollen is awful this year!! We have had so much rain, but it seems to get thicker after the rain.
It has been awhile since I have written on my blog. I have been meaning to get caught up, but things have been hectic lately. This has been a busy year for Taylor, and the school year is almost over!! I can hardly believe it!! A little "news'..Taylor won Durham Idol this year at her school. She was very cool about her win. She did not tell me the time of her performance, and I had to wait until after school to hear about it. She came in and very calmly said, "hi mom and dad, I won Durham Idol...here is my medal..is there anything to drink?" My husband and I tried to make a big deal out of it, and so did the neighbors, but she was very bashful about it, and did not have a "big head" about it. I was amazed that she had the nerve to get up in front of about 500 kids and sing! I never could. Singing comes naturally to her and she never meets a stranger, so I guess that is a good thing. I wish I could figure out how to speak or sing without having a dry mouth and a fainting spell!! LOL!! Besides that, Taylor is planning to go to church camp this summer, so I am looking forward to having a little vacation at my mom's for a week. i never get to see any of my old friends, and I think that will be fun..maybe I will get a lunch date without interruption.
Other than that, life is moving along well. Dane is working at home these days, so that has been a change for me! I only wish I could work again..the house is not big enough for both of us!! I don't know what he is thinking!! LOL!!
They found out mom has to have gallbladder surgery in June. I am not looking forward to having my mom in a hospital for surgery, but I am glad that they have finally found out what all of her mysterious illnesses were about. I had the same surgery a few years ago, and it went well, but took a lot out of me energy wise for a few weeks. say a prayer for her!
Well, it is time to call it a day ..have a good night!!
