Somehow I missed

I did not get here this morning, and we left and filled up the day. The discussions do seem interesting and they are keeping me out of the heat. We went to church, to the store to pick up a prescription and some bread. Splurged and went to Wendy's for lunch. Hubby is napping. I tried, but the phone rang. I did not answer, but I decided to get up, because I remembered you guys and wanted to check in. We had some soft rain overnight. It is only in the low 90's. Tomorrow may be ten degrees cooler. Tomorrow is my last full day home before we start back to school planning. Half day work day Tuesday, full day work day Wednesday, the kids on Thursday. Seasons just keep on turning around.

I think it's darn right cruel to start school before Labor Day...

We will be out of school just after the middle of May. Schedules sure are different than they used to be though.

@spiderdust Poor kids, missing out on summer, but then, I guess it's always summer in SJ.

I hope you're ready to go back to school. Good luck! It stormed off and on all night and kept raining until around 3 pm here. We had 72F until around 5 pm and then the temp shot up to 80F. I hope it doesn't get any higher than that. We had over 2 inches of rain this weekend and are still under a flash flood warning. Possibly more rain to come. We shall see.

@GardenGerty The older gentleman next-door said his rain gauge showed we'd gotten over 5 inches of rain this weekend by the time the storms were done.

Do they get lots of long breaks or get out early in the spring?

I try to enjoy each new week. It has been quite a summer, but no vacation really,

After another 100 degree day with stifling humidity I can’t wait for the 83 degree day we’ve been told we’re having tomorrow.

I couldn't believe that Julia's little twins are 18-months old already. Maybe I went to sleep for six months!

You had a great lazy holiday. I had to work like a horse while having bird flu virus

Excuse me!!! I work harder when school is out. I completed a new course of training, did what little yard work got done, dealt with a huge tree that fell on my house. I am sorry you had the avian flu. I started my summer with three different infections. Four different antibiotics. I do get all my flu shots, etc.I also have doctor appointments for my husband and myself.
