blast from the past

We are having the cabinets in our kitchen updated, which of course means that everything is a mess right now.....boxes everywhere! While removing the cabinet doors, we found an old calendar attached to the inside of one door.

The house was built in 1963, and this calendar is from 1970. My dad told me about the store mentioned on the calendar and that it was very popular at the time! Of course, the calendar is gone now...but what a neat find! Neat...might not be the right word....guess watching those Brady Bunch DVDs have affected my vocabulary!

13 things that I need to do before summer vacation is over!

~~Finish writing curriculum~~. DONE!
Buy a new camera.
Clean the flowers beds and plant the flowers I bought. (FINISHED ONE OF THEM)
Fill the holes we still have after FEMA moved the trees.
~~Go through all my CDs~~. DONE--Over 100 CDs gone...so much more room!
Put the flag holder back on the shed.
Take car to the shop for oil change, alignment and the "recall" problem. Made an appointment.
~~Create a new background and header for blog....clean it up a little!~~ DONE--Hope you like it!
Paint the front porch.
Read at least two books that have nothing to do with school.
Help with the floor replacement! Yea! No carpet!
Clean out all closets, cabinets & drawers---get organized. STARTED--not finished
Give someone that works for the oil companies a weekly budget, and they have to pay for their own gas! Let's see how they like it! Just kidding, but thought it would be educational for them and satisfying for me!

crazy summer

I must admit that I have enjoyed this summer much more than last, but it seems that my friends aren't having that much fun. I have one that worked curriculum (just like me), and she is having to redo the work. Yes...redo the work that eight people were paid to do. I know somewhat how she feels, because I had to work extra to clear up some mistakes. I am going to help her finish tomorrow! The sad part is that those other people have been enjoying their summer, and she hasn't.

I have another dear friend that has separated from her husband. She has moved out and is trying to find a way to live on her own, however it is not going to be easy. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers!

My mother retired, and today was her last day at work. She is going to struggle with this change, because she loved her job and the people she work with for the past twelve years. I am going to have to remember to patient (we are opposites) as she tries to find her way at this change in her life!

Finally

Finally, I am back and ready to blog again. I've have missed this so much.
Finally, I have redesigned the site. It's still not what I wanted, but will have to do. For those that saw squarespace offers a wide variety of templates, let me be the first to say that they are not the most creative and do not always match personality. You can find more templates for wordpress and blogger than you can for squarespace. Oh well....it does have perks too.
Finally, I am able to relax a little and enjoy my summer vacation.
Hmm...I finally posted this, and it's almost 2 in the morning. Will have to come back tomorrow!
