We've been on the go since late last week, with a family picnic and the end of Jerry's visit, a long weekend in Cleveland, and a trip to Idlewild with my dad yesterday. The boys have been having a lot of fun, but I'm glad we'll have a few down days here to return to normal bedtimes and less running around. Unfortunately, with all the running we missed yet another Erie Bloggers function--this time a picnic at Glenwood. Mike and I haven't made it to anything since the first meeting in March of '06, and that's a disgrace. But it always seems like the weather is crappy or we have something else going on or who knows what, but we're definitely going to have to work on that.
Speaking of Erie Bloggers, two weeks from now we'll be in the middle of Erie Blogs Week at the Community Blood Bank. When you donate blood the week of July 23-27, there will be a special sign-up sheet where you can sign in to donate as well as record what local blog you'd like your donation to be counted towards. One random donor as well as the blog that gets the most referrals will win a great prize basket with items donated by local businesses and organizations. The prizes include great stuff like iTunes gift cards, gas cards, family membership to the Erie Art Museum, wine, and Campbell Pottery. It's a great way to get out and help the community--tell them Cream of Potato Soup sent you!
