I like the way this rose just showed up so late in the fall, after everything else was done blooming. What a nice surprise!

Margie October 28, 2009


Went to the mall. She was ooohing and aaahing over all the beautiful dresses in the windows.

Marla October 28, 2009

Seriously...If I'm gonna keep finding these Mega Millions lottery tickets in puddles could they at least be winners. Found this one earlier today and I assumed that it was gonna be an expired ticket but...nope...I was for tonights drawing.

The Wall of Hate... students add hate they've experienced as 'bricks' and later that night we broke the wall down. Part of anti-hate week on campus.

The neighbor has a nice maple tree. He was out blowing his leaves and was, quite politely, blowing the maple leaves that fell into our yard back over into his yard. We hurried out & started raking and 'borrowing back' some of the leaves, so that we could have a nice leaf pile to play in! His maple leaves are so much more fun than our tiny apple & cherry leaves.

Margie October 27, 2009


I couldn't get too close to take a picture because it's the crabby neighbor's house, but I was out in the yard with Jesse and the little kids, and Jesse says, "Hey Mom, is that a chicken coming into our yard?" Sure enough, it was. There's about 10 of them over there. First time I ever saw them. This should be interesting........

I have really been enjoying the color changes in all of the leaves this year...does this mean that I am old?

Maureen October 23, 2009


Sometimes, 'working from home' is meshed with things like 'finishing the Halloween costumes'. Today was especially chaotic as we had a new client that had us very busy at work, while the local 'Halloween Parade' (which we ended up skipping anyway) was looming tomorrow.

Margie October 23, 2009


We ate dinner at a Japanese restaurant tonight.

All the people & animals are sleeping on "horse beds." I told her that I didn't think it would be too comfortable to sleep on a horse bed, but she said that the horse would be sleeping too, so it would be ok.

I am doing an estimating, then counting, sorting, graphing Halloween candy exercise with my kids. Can you guess how many pieces of candy are in this jar?

Donna October 20, 2009

Holy cow! I mean cat. We stopped at my friend sherry's house the other day. How fat is the cat? The cat is so fat that it lays down to eat...
