Maybe next week I'll remember to do thefridayfive when it's still Friday. Oh well!

1. What’s your favorite way to stay cool in late summer? Stay inside with the A/C going, or with a box fan propped in a window. Or hang out on the riverbank, that one is usually a good one, except this summer I can't swim and am being prissy about getting dirty because of the eczema, so we have not had near enough river/creek time.

2. Are you ready for autumn yet? Yes. Cooler/less humid weather means less migraines. Plus I love autumn - hoodies, the smell of fall, bonfires, hitting the pumpkin patch.

3. What do you have left to do before summer ends? So much stuff, lol. My to-do list is never ending, and for three summers I've been planning on sorting through the boxes (and boxes upon boxes) of pictures in the basement and they're still untouched. I don't know that there is anything that I really HAVE to get done before summer is over though, it's all kinda ongoing.

4. Has it been a good summer for you? Mostly. It was weird to have Ronnie gone for five weeks while he was at camp, and Davey was gone for two (but they were only gone for about four days overlapping, and it was when I couldn't walk because of the infection in my foot), but I guess that's preparation for when they both leave me in a few short years. *sigh* And with them being gone, plus us being consistently broke, plus the eczema and the migraines, I feel like we didn't do much of anything? Especially since my brother ran over his foot with the lawnmower the last week of school so we didn't even do evenings at the swimming hole here in town. But overall it was good.

5. Have you started Christmas shopping yet? I have, actually, but mainly because I saw something on clearance that would be a great gift for one of the little ones, and I've already special ordered a few other things.
