Friday Cocktails – July 1, 2022

Jul 01, 2022 | Rita

July 1 2022 Friday Cocktails

Friday has rolled around again, which means it is time for Friday Cocktails! It is the beginning of July and a holiday weekend! I am sure that y’all are like me and out getting things ready for whatever event you have planned.

this last week has been full of planning for the fourth and getting last minute things ready for our vacation which starts soon. Ma went to the lung doctor on Tuesday about the nodule on her lung. He sounded encouraging with everything. All of the kids had dental appointments that afternoon. Those were luckily the only appointments.

Other than that I have been prepping meals for the seniors and getting things arranged with someone to check in with them while the kids and I are gone. My ex did call and let me know he and his new wife felt that maybe the kids need to just stay for the summer and not the six months we had originally agreed upon. Normally I would have gotten worked up over that but I am going to just wait and see what is going to happen. I don’t want to fight but we agreed on this new arrangement and I don’t want to change it.

July 1 2022 Friday Cocktails 4th of July

As far as the 4th goes we are heading to Callaway Gardens for the weekend. They have a beach and more going on including fireworks. It will be something fun for us to do and I got us a villa to stay in so we don’t have to worry about driving up there and finding parking. We can easily walk or ride to the beach.

Just something a little different for us to do in our own hometown. Every year I try to do something even if it is just us cooking out in the backyard. I think it is important to take the time to simply celebrate the day for what it is. Of course, maybe it is just that my father always made such a big deal of the day and weekend when I was growing up.
