Slip n Slide

 Yesterday, which was supposed to be beautiful, turned out to be overcast and chilly. So far this summer has been lackluster in terms of weather and sunshine. Although I will probably regret it later, right now I am glad that we didn't pay for a pool membership. With our chaotic schedule, we decided it was probably better to just pay by the day. Judging the weather trends, we made the right decision.

With my wonky fitting leg, I'm glad that the weather hasn't been obscene. I haven't had to deal with sweating this summer and I am so grateful to have avoided the liner slip n' slide so far. At this point my leg is already too big. I know that obtaining and maintaining a comfortable (and safe) fit when the summer heat is added to the equation will be nearly impossible. 

Today we will hit the mall, gathering the final things for Robby's big trip. He is more excited than nervous. Actually, he doesn't seem to have any anxiety about his adventure. I thought he may be nervous about traveling alone, but it seems that he is counting the hours until his getaway. (I'm trying not to take it personally.)  :)
