a haunting invitation

to watch "Ghost Hunters" on the Sy-Fy Channel on Wednesday. You can bet I'll be watching/hiding under my blanket!

a great birthday present

The Cardinals won the World Series!! I couldn't be happier; especially because they beat the Texas Rangers, and we all know what I think of their idiot former owner George Bush (aka the worst president in the history of the world). Go Cards! Eleven series wins in 2011! How great is that!

patio





We have been blessed with beautiful weather. Here's the progress after four weekends.
More stone and gravel were delivered today. I can't wait for the columns and the floor.

fall roses, roses with bananas

My roses are surprising me every morning with new blooms and I keep picking them.

telling lies

Dear Jesus,
In the past two days I have told two lies. They were little convenient non-truths but let's face it, I know what a lie is and they were lies. First of all, I ask your forgiveness. I guess I should face the music and confess to the two people that heard these lies but I am not that strong yet. They might think I'm weird and they were not hurt in any way. It was just me getting out of something that I did not want to do. Help me to grow in my faith as I try to be more truthful with my friends.

cattiness

Yesterday the sun came out but it was filtered, the temperature stayed cool and it was very breezy. I had my share of recess duty. The buses were running late but I stayed outside making sure that all the wheelchair and autistic kids were loaded. When I came in, a facilitator/ co-worker said, "Hey, have you checked your hair lately?" Now, I was well aware that my hair was wind blown and I'm comfortable in my skin no matter what...but please keep catty comments to yourself, especially when I'm going out of my way to help you!

It's much warmer today. I walked 5.76 miles in the hood.

at home

  

Today I picked the last of the roses and made Ro-Tel Chicken Spaghetti for my hubby who has to work late. Later I will veg out in front of the television watching the first game of the World Series...Go Cards!!

Tomorrow I am back at school subbing as a facilitator. I'm thinking I'm going to be stuck with recess duty for at least part of the day...what's the warmest thing I can wear?
