Good morning Christmas friends!

It looks like today is going to be another scorcher. I will be glad when Fall weather is here.

I go back to work Monday and school starts next Thursday. This is the first year I will be at a different elementary school than one of my children. I am having a hard time dealing with letting him go. The school system started a new Pre-K program and I was chosen to be the assistant teacher for it. There will be 18 students and 2 teachers. It was an opportunity I couldn't turn down. The only draw back is that it is at a different school than where my son goes. I have always worked at the same elementary school my kids attended, so this is a huge adjustment for me. I know to most people this sounds so trivial, but I am having a hard time with it. He is fine with it, though. He will be in first grade. They grow up so fast.

I hope you all are having a great time and are safe and healthy.
Before you know it, Christmas time will be here. I can't wait!
TTYL!

Good morning everyone Christmas is getting closer. Some stores are already bringing out the fall decorations. Yesterday we had an earthquake here in California, I was at work and freaked, I was trying to leave out the door while it was still moving. No one was hurt so that was good, I guess an earthquake once in a while is normal here. Not something you can get used to. Well at least Christmas is on the way. cheesy

Good morning, everyone! Almost August. AND -- the holiday cleaning and organizing plans begin August 31st! That is an incentive to enjoy the summery summer days of not-so-much cleaning and organizing!

Good Morning...A beautiful day here this morning. I was sitting out earlier on my deck...enjoying my morning coffee as I watched a few little birds in the yard eating up the worms. The weekends right around the corner. I think we may do some camping then. Plan to go to a place we have never been before. Should be a good time. We were invited to join my s/o co-workers. The co-worker who invited us along won a catered pig roast. Once a month the guys at work think of a safety slogan. They jot it down and turn it in. Well...if your slogan is chosen you win various things. For example s/o cousin won a few months back. He won like a 2-3 hundred dollar Cabela's gift certificate. I told s/o he needs to think of something that will grab the bosses attention....*L* Win or lose thou it's a pretty darn good company these guys work for. Hope everyone has a great day!

Good afternoon gang!! It's a hot one out there today! Glad to be inside in the AC! Hope you are all having a good day!!!

Thursday morning...a nice start here after some rain last night. Crown is relaxing hopefully where he is (who wouldn't think he is). Bing this the last day you can do the count? I will do it Fri-Sun if you are leaving today. Crown should be back Monday to do it.

Count rolling down the last few days to the big next marker. Bing you like iced coffee or only hot? I could drink iced coffee in the winter...not a fan of hot coffee much.

Have a great Thursday.

careful dam... Crown..like the binger.. is gender neutral....

Hello everyone...I'm new to the forum but already full of such spirit in my first few posts! I can't believe the holidays are so close! It's the beginning of August already, and here I am already making decorations and planning on gifts.

 

[Holiday]

Goood morning!!! Can you believe it's AUGUST?!?! Where is the summer going? And not only is it August, but it is
F-F-F-FRIDAY!!! :???: Hope you all have a GREAT weekend!!!

I'm officially on vacation (again).

I plan on getting out and taking more photos. Wed. we're heading to Ottawa for a belated Christmas in July visit at a five-bedroom cottage in the mountains by the lake. I'll bet I'll get some nice shots there too. Haven't seen the grandchildren since early June.

Hope the weather cooperates, I don't want to be stuck indoors, looks good though.

I might not be around as much in the next while, but I'll stop by when I can. I hear there's a computer at the cottage, but with eleven of us there, I might not get a turn.

I'll be thinking Christmas thoughts - don't you worry.

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone! It is fun to hear about the nice summer activities -- vacations at the lake and baby showers and bar-b-ques.
I went to the farmers market this morning and got some heirloom tomatoes called "Mortgage Boosters" that are very tasty! And some mint plants that smell so good!
