Way Too Much Time: She's BBBBaaaacccckkkk !!!!

"The Madge" is back from CT. Erin, Caden and "The Madge" all returned back to Texas yesterday from the soggy Northeast. During their stay they had one day without rain, this however proved beneficial for me. How many people want to take a one year old out in the rain to look at real estate? The only place she did see required too too much upgrading so I am safe for now.

As previously predicted she tried to see her "one" friend in CT, but Lorraine was M.I.A., which means she was at her second house in Spring Lake, NJ. The visiting Texans did however manage to see my sister, brother in law and their family for a BBQ at their house on Long Island. No, "The Madge" did not do the driving. Since her return she has been very quiet about her summer relocation desires. I was hoping that she would have brought some rain with her. We haven't seen a drop of it in nearly three weeks, and the temperatures are hitting 95 - 98 everyday. Jumping into the pool is like taking a bath, in the evening when you go skinny dipping, the air temp is cooler than the water temp. Yesterday I heard the familiar chimes of a ice cream truck but by the time I got there this is what I found.

The following are recent pictures of the Grandchildren.

Thousands of dollars worth of toys and they play with the empty box.

At least two people are interested in the story.

It's nice to share your toys.

"The Madge" will be here for a couple of weeks then it's off to Chicago. What's in Chicago you ask. All the Murphy girls are joining forces in the windy city to celebrate Colleen's birthday. Chicago is their preferred Big City. Colleen is turning 40, God I am old, so "The Madge" and the four girls are hitting the city for a girls weekend away. I can't wait to see that Amex statement. Turning 40, wow, that means I just turned 23 when she was born, double wow. Speaking of Colleen, she started her new job, that will relocate her to New Joisey, and I am so proud of her and how hard she works. Here's a few pictures of her "on the job".
