I can’t believe it either, two posts in less then 4 days!  I’m trying to do better, especially since I know school is coming up fast and who knows if/when I will find the time to update this.

Thursday evening we had a HUGE storm. We had quarter size hail, strong winds and crazy lighting.  I am so bummed though, Geno bought me a new SD card that is supposed to improve shutter speed, which it does but out of ALL the pictures I took of the storm not ONE of them caught the lightning.  Luckily, no cars were damaged. Pictures are on Flickr

 Friday I did a lot of running around - including stopping by housing to check on a work order we have for the house.  It turns out that there is a leak in the garage.  We have an alcove in the garage where Geno keeps all his Army gear. Well we have been trying to clean out and organize the garage and when we went to sort through his Army stuff we were greeted by moldy gear and a TON of creepy crawly things.  It had been almost over a year and a half since we looked at that stuff…  You can even see on our roof where the shingles are bowed.  Anyway, I checked with them and it was like they were accusing me - asking why we didn’t notice the water going down the wall - because there isn’t any! They are coming tomorrow to take a look at it. Plus, the gear that was ruined has to be replaced.

Saturday we went to Myrtle Beach to do some shopping.  We wanted to hit the outlet malls, Broadway at the Beach and soak our toes in some water. I also was on the look out for a new pair of shoes my neighbor has been telling me about.  They are the Nike Free’s.  I found them at the outlet mall on 501 and believe it or not they had my size!  Derrick got some play clothes, Geno and Derrick both got new running shoes, and Xavier got new sandals - SIZE 12!!!  On our way back to Fayetteville we stopped at a farmers market and we bought cherries, green/black seedless grapes, peaches and homemade ginger ale!

Today we did a good portion of the garage.  I planned on putting toys and stuff on eBay but have decided just to sell them at the garage sale we are having on Saturday.  Less trouble organizing it and packaging it up… Other then that we just relaxed and enjoyed a movie.

So there you have it… have a great week!!!
