James is in the terrible two's. This is his 1st time out. He actually listened and sat in the corner then said sorry.

Aunt Mary Lou has not been feeling well since Saturday. I talked her into going to the doctor today. Her doctor sent her for blood work and urinalysis. No results yet.

The sky, as Annie & I were driving home from Shelby's school, where we had spent an hour putting up the PTO's 'Welcome Back' bulletin board.

This is where I wasted 1 1/2 hours of my day. A girl at work had an altercation with her 'ex' boyfriend on company property and I was subpaeoned as a witness. But she did not show up to testify because, from what I hear, she is back with him! The State is not dropping the case so the court date has been postponed for 6 weeks when I will probably waste more time. I told the States Attorney that he will probably have to arrest her to get her to show up. FYI - I have never had a good relationship with this girl and this puts the icing on the cake. Enough ranting.

Cole's first day with homework for this school year. He had to interview another student at school and then write a report about her. Here he is drawing a picture of her. He didn't know how to draw her so we got out the class picture from last year.

Annie asked for a variety pack of 100 balloons at the store, yesterday and has spent much of the afternoon today playing with them in all kinds of ways. She's easily entertained by balloons.

Studying her spelling words, eating a fudgsicle, with a fake raven on her shoulder. Just another normal day in this child's life.

We had a picnic today with Miss DiBartolo (Cole's teacher from last year). She had to move to another school this year as there were not enough classes for her to teach at Harrison again. The kids just loved her and she loved them too.

James is 25 months old today. We went grocery shopping and this was James and Emily's first time in one of these car carts. They loved it.

I hope that it keeps on working for another 6-10 days, because so far it doesn't seem to be doing much at all. Doctor said I had bronchitis last Wednesday & it's just wiping me out.

Mom always said that one day she wanted to have a get together with Terra and her family, me and my family, and Kevin and his family. Today I finally made it happen. I had them all over here for lunch and visiting. It was a nice day. In the picture are Jim and Sharon, Terra and her husband Scott, Kathy and Kevin, and me.

On their way to their first day of school this morning. I don't remember why they were pretending to be chickens...

We stopped by the middle school to have him measured for a new violin rental. He's going to be taking both oboe and violin with the middle school teachers this school year -and- taking a second year of recorder with the elementary school music teacher.

This picture is not very good. Those trees across the street are not changing color early. The sun was setting behind me, and it cast that light on the trees. About 15 min. later, they were green again.

A sunflower in our yard. Every year, I try to save the seeds to share with the kids' classmates in the spring, but something always goes wrong, leaving them lost or unusable in the spring. This year, I'm going to read up about it on the internet & do it right!

Cole had his first "safety patrol" meeting today. They found out where they would be helping out, got their belts, learned the rules and ate Dilly bars.
