My energy level has been as close to zero as it gets lately. Why? Ha! I have no idea. Probably because of the blasted summer weather. Do you know reason number 5,234,189 that the Summer is the worst season of the year? In the winter you can always put on more layers. In the summer you can only take so much off!

Oh well. Reason number 6,218,947 that I love living in Utah is that the hot summer weather only lasts for 3 months, and sometimes even less! Hurray!

Hope you and yours are well and loving life!

Love, Shayla
