Fall is Here?

Fall is here, maybe? Now if the weather would just cooperate! The 80's are having a hard time leaving. Mid 70's for a few days, and then mid 60's the rest of this week. THAT'S THE WEATHER I LOVE!

We've had a rather lazy weekend, thank goodness! I needed some R&R. We visited mom yesterday morning. She needs some winter clothes, but has a few she can wear until I can find some for her. Her dementia makes her very worried about clothes, and she struggles with thinking she doesn't have anything to wear. I'm on vacation Monday & Tuesday, so I'll go shopping at Sears. She also wants some new pajamas, hopefully I can find her some flannel ones that she will like. After doing our Dillons grocery shopping we came home and goofed around the rest of the day.

Corby thought he had the blinkers fixed (yet again!) in my car, but they went out again today. He's more than frustrated to say the least, but continues to search for the problem. He and Kaitlin are washing cars today. The weather is perfect for it.

We picked up a few goodies at Target today...

Halloween socks for me and Kaitlin

and candy for next Sunday's trick-or-treaters

These are some cool gourds we got last week at Dillons

I bet you do! It came in handy for our cornucopia of gourds! Okay, not really a cornucopia, but...

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
