First Half of Summer

Wow. It's been a busy several weeks for the Sheens O'Round Rock. Amy and I both had our birthdays, we've been to Houston and Dallas and had several adventures in between. Thankfully a good part of the time has been with others - family or friends - so there's pictures somewhere on the interwebs of each place or activity. And rather than trying to play catchup on the last several weeks with a barrage of posts, enjoy a hodge podge of photos that we have taken!

When I was moving between one end and the other to mount the curtain rod to the wall, the ladder (which is one of those tri-fold ladders, around 12 feet tall when fully extended) started to bend on me. It was terrifying. I had to some how maneuver the ladder so that I didn't get flattened and so that the ladder didn't pop through a second story window. But I managed to stabilize it, got it straight again, found that the locking mechanisms simply were not engaged in the middle bend, and corrected that in a hurry. Probably more information than anyone cares to read, but there you go.
