July Update

July was a busy and tough month. Camden started Karate lessons this month. He is very quiet in class. It is easy to see that he is taking in everything at once. The classes seem to help with his four year old behavior. We just threaten to tell Miss Harvey if he isn't being good. That usually helps - for at least a few minutes.



We thought the old house sold three times before the final deal closed with buyer number four. The movers brought our old furniture to the new house on July 1. They damaged the kitchen floor, kitchen cabinet, front foyer floor, main railing, the wall up the steps and down the hall, and one desk drawer. We have to wait on them to get it fixed.



Near the end of July, I ended up in the hospital with a Crohn's flair-up. It was not a pleasant experience. Luckily, I had a lot of prayers and got out after four days. There was no need for surgery. Darryl worked at Edge of Town one night I was in the hospital. The next night he went to Ron and Trinette's annual anniversary party. Which, by the way, was on our 11th wedding anniversary. The lady from the title company came to the hospital so I could sign the final papers on the house. Not fun signing lots of papers with a tube in your nose. Darryl finished cleaning out the old house by himself. Finally, Camden stayed with my folks most of the time. This was good because he was a little scared.

Due to my hospital stay, my family wasn't able to attend Jason and Suzie's reception. We were all bummed but maybe next time we can all meet.

That sums up July. I'm sure there was more. Stay tuned for Aug.
