Hi All!

I went in for a bunch of heart tests and it is confirmed....I do actually have one (I kept a copy to prove it to Boyd).

So....the chest pains and whatnot must be related to the gall bladder issue. I am having that removed on Monday, August 11. We saw a sonogram of it and it looks like a sack of rocks.

Ian started another round of swim lessons. T-ball starts tomorrow. I am optimistic about t-ball since Ian "came to life" on the field during the last day of soccer last week.

Saturday night I volunteered for a preschool fund raiser in El Dorado Hills selling snow cones, oh excuse me Hawaiian Ice. "Moonlight in Margaritaville" with a Jimmy Buffet tribute band. I was so excited as I LOVE Jimmy Buffet, however....it was 1000 degrees, I had no idea where I was going or what I was supposed to do when I got there. Teacher Laura showed up with the ice machine and syrup. We unloaded it all and then just stared at it (as if it would put itself together and start producing).

Luckily the guy who owns the machine (Teacher Heidi is thinking about buying it for the school) was in the booth right next to us and helped us out.

It was so boring for about 3 hours, but then the sun went down, the music started and folks actually bought some ices. We only made about $60, (after the 20% the venue collected), but it's better than nothing.

Grandma made Ian some Thomas pjs and matching bandanas for Charles and Bruno! Check out the photos.
