I just realized it's been over a month since I updated my journal. So much for keeping on top of that.

Not much has been going on lately. I've been working a lot, which is better than the alternative. My dad's been a bit sick the last week. I took him to the new VA (veteran's) hospital they finished building this summer. It's a gorgeous, modern facility and so much less depressing than the old one.

Speaking of summer, it just won't go away around here. It's still hot as heck and dry as a bone. I know that may be rubbing it in for the folks on the Atlantic side of the country, but I wouldn't mind taking a little of that wind and rain off your hands (a very little).

That's about it from me. I'm just plugging along as usual. Hope life is going well for all of you!
