Quite Mundane

I have no other excuse than "I am busy."  So, here it is today...Monday, August 1st.  I ended my July having had the best July (occupancy wise) since 2004.  Much, much better than last year.  Out of 248 possible rooms to sell in July I sold 195.  Last year I did 127.  Needless to say, that is a lot of food, towels, room cleaning, etc.

The other night I had a dream about Ray.  I was in some type of park setting.  I saw Ray and walked up to him.  I was gonna say "I haven't seen you since you were in your casket" but I thought that would sound tacky.  So I said..."I haven't seen you since your funeral."  Then, I hugged him.  I still can't believe how much I miss him.  Actually, I guess I can believe how much I miss him. 

Yesterday I went to the Allegan Antique Flea Market with Drew.  He found this fabulous piece of furniture.  It's a hutch/cabinet circa 1890.  Perfect for the house.  Quarter-sawn oak, very detailed woodwork.  It was only $95.  I kept saying "I have no place for it."  Then the guy said "I'll go $75."  Well, I figured I'll find someplace for it.  You can't get anything like that at Big Lots for $75!!  So, I bought it and found a place for it in the dining room.

I sit here and type in my blog with not much to comment on about my "feelings."  I guess every day I get a little more normal.  I had so many strong emotions and feelings in the beginning of this journey, now my days are quite mundane.  - Jimmy
