It was just the other day and school started. Here we are and Thanksgiving is next week. Where does the time go? It seems I'm not able to sit down and collect my thoughts. So much going on.
Work has been a political nightmare and school takes much discipline for me as well as BB. Here's the first day of school, new school and new kids.
We were fortunate to get BB in a good school. She has had some fun stuff to do. Getting to cheer at one of the football games.

We got to meet Flat Stanley and bring him home for a week and then send him off to visit a great friend of mine,Lynette. He got to pack up and go stay with Lynette for a week and see what happens at their house. He also got to spend a day playing with us at the amusement park.
Next thing on the to do list is Christmas shopping. I'm not much of a shopper. My kind of shopping is buying on the internet and having it sent to the house. The warm weather here has dampened the feeling of fall. Traditionally it needs to be cold to start Christmas shopping and get into the spirit. It will get done though, all in time.
Our family celebrated my son's 25th birthday and we had a great time with all the kids. My Dad's health has not been well, but that night he was feeling better. He gladly made a comment that he felt everyone in our immediate family was at peace with themselves. This was a big statement for our family. Many years can be claimed disfunctional, but that's what has taught us many lessons. Sad to say though, there are some who have many lessons to be learned. You can't tell someone and expect changes, they must see it for themselves.
The youngest 4 should have a fun time this year for Christmas. Now, I like to shop for the little ones. Anything excites them. Just to see a Christmas tree is grand.
Better go for now. Maybe I won't be away so long the next time.
