The past two summer's I've spent in doors avoiding the sun and trying not to get too hot so my skin condition didn't flair up and make me itch horribly.
The first of those two summers it was unavoidable since we didn't really know what what's going on and I hadn't started treatment for my skin and so I laid low and waited to get into a specialist and get things figured out.
Last summer I used moving as an excuse not to get out and be active as I was working on "unpacking". Truthfully I probably spent more time on the computer or playing the Xbox than unpacking.
Now, this summer we're hoping to be moving again (into a house this time, not 680 miles) and we need to be packing some stuff up. We both always say "When we get a house we'll...", and the ending of that sentence varies but mostly it involves being more active and outside instead of watching movies or playing on the computers. I honestly can't wait to have a yard and garden where I can go spend my time after work, but that's several months off at the moment.
In the mean time I have laid out my own, self prescribed, excersize regime...every evining that I can I am gaoing to go up to the nearest cemetery, Logan City Cemetery, and spend an hour or more photographically transcribing the 45 occupied acres of the 53 acre cemetery. This also involves checking and uploading the photos to findagrave.com (I refuse to abbreviate it as others do...). I know it's a lot to try and do, but I don't expect to finish it in one summer, but if I do...great, and if I don't it just means I get to spend more time there.
So, if you have any family buried here in Logan, or any of the other cemeteries in Cache Valley or the surrounding and there's no picture on Find A Grave or another webiste, let me know and I'll try to find it for you.
