They did that here in August. I assume to get it out of the way before school starts. Hope you're having a good day!Here, it's the first full week of school ... college is in session ... AND they're doing road construction near my office. So that adds about 20 minutes to the commute. It's not so bad when I listen to an audiobook or some old-time radio on the way to work. This morning I listened to a big hunk of "A Christmas Carol," read by Tom Baker.
Enjoy your September and all the 'Bers to come!
Yeah but that's because you didn't work any the first week of September lol. Now that you are it will slow down a bitTo me, the 1st week in Sept. FLEW by!! Can't believe we are a week into it already!

Have a great Wednesday, everyone! The week is half way![]()
Merry Wednesday.
Back to school today for us. It's my youngest's first day of school. I can't believe it. It's such a big milestone. He was so brave and excited. I teared up but he just happily waved me good bye LOL. It seems like just yesterday he started nursery last September. They will be doing half days (like nursery) for this week to help them settle in and full days begin next week.
Thank you for the well wishes for Miley. The vet says it's an allergy so she should be fine.
Well I better get some stuff done before I pick up the kids.

Happy Pines! Dreary day here today but it is supposed to warm up to the 80s. Andre vomited last night and this morning he is not eating. He is acting fine so he must just have an upset stomach. I think I will try to make him some chicken and rice and see if that helps him.
Hope you all have a great day!
Good Morning, Thread Watchers and Christmas Counters!
And count we do, day after day, week after week, month after month.....and Season after Season.
Speaking of Seasons:
Days to the Season: 67
Days to Christmas Day: 109
And there you have it --- SINGLE DIGITS to the 100-day Christmas Day Milestone marker and the commencement of a double-double digit count.
(Can this really be happening to us -- so soon??)
Warm yesterday, but without the oven-like impact we experienced late last month.
No rain in the forecast for a while but the heat should be gradually increasing for the next few days.
We are at 72 degrees here, currently.
Now. Hear ye, Hear ye!
Carl wishes it to be announced that tonight's open house will be very special, with the theme of "Feel the 'Bers".
(Uh, huh. I get it.)
There will be a pre-fall theme complete with appropriate decorations to get us in the mood for Autumn (which, of course, will be upon us two weeks from tomorrow).
Hope to see you there.
And have a Wonderful Wednesday, in the meantime!
Happy Wednesday everyone! Mid-week and it didn't take much effort at all. We have a high heat warning for today. I love extreme cold advisories but am not a fan of the high heat ones. I hope you all have an awesome pine day!
Good Wednesday Morning MMC! Happy Pines Day! First Pines of the 'Bers! Driving to work today took me an extra 15 minutes because it's the first day of school. I don't mind. I love seeing the kids walking to school with their parents. Can you guys believe we're already 1 week into September? To me, at least it seems it's slowed a little from the summer. I am looking forward to the NFL tomorrow. Everything is exciting this time of year! No wonder we love these months the most!
Have a great Pines Day everyone!
Good morning MMC! Merry Pines Day! I love that it's hump day already! Oh, and I was told this morning that it's also National Beer Lovers Day! LOL! @snowflake22 break out the Leinies!![]()
My afternoon off yesterday was nice. Gracie & I went out to the lake. Hubby & I went out for Mexican for supper. Then we had to stop at Moms b/c Miss Emma made me some really nice birthday treats... pumpkin bars with cream cheese icing, some spicy cheese dip, & she gave me a jar of her home canned peach pie filling, and a nice card. She's so thoughtful!Of course she had a gag gift in there which involved a green tomato & my dads false teeth. That girl!!

Woke up to a nice gray, rainy day! I imagine my students will be horribly bummed because the rain means they can't go outside, but I'll gladly take any weather that is outside the norm for boring Arizona heat!
