For some reason, I love Mrs. Gummidge from Charles Dickens' David Copperfield. She drives young David crazy because she's always lamenting (loudly) and going on about how she's a "lone lorn creetur" but she just makes me laugh! She talks about her "troubles" like they are an actual person. Kind of like Mrs. Bennet's "nerves" in Pride and Prejudice. I love crazy nervous emotional wrecks of women in these stories! I think they make me feel quite sane. I probably shouldn't compare myself to fictitious characters, though.
Well, this summer has been kind of nuts! Living with in-laws, looking for employment and housing. It turns out housing has a pre-requisite of employment. But here are some pictures -- but I messed up and posted them in order from most recent to less recent.
After a fun afternoon of swimming in Lindon.
Cranking home-made ice cream with the Wilsons.
Niece and nephew Syd and Kaiser playing in the backyard.
Me with one of my best buddies! I'm not sure why she likes me so much!
The game of the summer: Lasso golf!
4th of July: I got to hold cute baby Wyatt.
Auntie Cindy and my mother at my Grandma Huber's pool for a 4th of July celebration.
Happy girls, Lauren, Natalie, cousin Meranda. I think they're daydreaming of hot red-headed paramedics.
