July - a new month and a new start!

We have been very busy staying on top of Gerard's pain and side-effects from medications. I'm juggling staying home and working mostly from home. Sorry to take such a long time between posts, but life is extremely busy...as you are all aware... and blogging takes a lot of time (believe it or not). In the time it takes you to read 2 minutes, it probably takes me an hour to write, then edit all the swear words out, then another hour to upload one image. Ah, technology.

Gerard is having a great day today, and a long nap...thus the generous post. Here are pics from the Fourth of July Parade last Saturday morning in Downtown North Ogden. It was overcast (thank goodness), and G had a terrific time, especially when the horses, firetrucks and police cars went blasting past us ...hmmm... He was a good little "jammer" when the little girl dance teams paraded through town - but I clapped and danced and carried on like a true So. LA girl, so lots of stuff got thrown our way (even from women)! (t-shirts, candy, plastic hats and American flags) - all rated G. So hooray and happy belated 4th! (even though we have a much bigger holiday coming up in UT - the 24th of July). Yes, google that one, why don't you - ! The 24th is coming, and it will be bigger and badder than ever!

Because we live across the street from the park that shoots the fireworks, I was able to capture a few pics at the dining room table when we finally got to eat around 10:00 PM. All that activity had G too wired to sleep.
