Some Good Days

We’ve had splendid summer weather during the past week:  sunny days in the 70’s and overnight around 50.  Justin is home for a couple of weeks. He seems to be doing much better now.  He earned A’s in both of his summer courses, did his homework on time and kept to a good sleeping schedule.  In fact, he seems like a whole new person.

We had a nice family campfire on the hill last night.  Allie’s magic Iphone camera filters turned Justin into a hipster.  Justin starts his second year of college after Labor Day. I think he has a better understanding of the demands of college and taking a more active role in managing his disability.

Allie finished her summer internship, along with an interview for a three year corporate rotation. She will help me out caregiving for Justin for the next week and then return to Milwaukee for her last semester of college before graduating in December.  We’ve had time to do some hiking also.

Next week is full of checking off “to do” lists before taking off in the Brew Hut the following week.  I know that Callie is ready to go.  Me too.
