10 days
Yep…that’s the school day countdown!! Woo-hoo! I am ready for this break, but I have lots to get done. My backyard neighbor and I made a plan to have a chainsaw party. There are some scraggly trees and branches that need to be cleared from the back part of my yard. He and I met at the fence for me to see his new adorable baby goat and made the plan to teach me the fine art of using our chainsaw!!! Last night Santa and Mrs. Claus came by the house with a nice treat of candy and some GREEN stuff in a jar. (Really…I am not kidding!) Friday night, I went with Katie to her school party and then onto a biker bar with some of her teacher friends. Really…I am not kidding! As you can see there is hardly a dull moment at the house lately.
Found out about the house payment today….seems that we are on a biweekly payment plan which explains why I never saw that amount coming out once a month. But I don’t get why I didn’t pay attention to the half amount coming out twice a month!! I hope I get this down or it could get bad!!! Katie signed up for her second to last semester of classes yesterday. This means if all goes well and as planned she will be out by August and ready to get a big girl teaching job. Yee haw!
I am missing Brad but feeling more and more like an old version of myself. Not old but as in how I used to feel before cancer struck. Well..maybe old…picked up my no line bifocal glasses today…that’s a trip to try to walk in those the first time. Literally.
Tami, (and Katie)
I made Lasagna tonight for dinner and as we were eating I got to thinking about the night we had you over for Lasagna. We got to talking and laughing about how Brad said he would never come back and eat with us if we were going to feed him Vegetarian Lasagna. The first one I pulled out of the oven was the one without meat and Brad just about had a heart attack. He was not going to just eat vegetables and NOT get any meat.
Oh the fun and good laughs we had with you all and will always remember and treasure! Praying you have a very blessed Christmas break and get lots of rest.

Hi there! Continue to luv to read your blog entries, Mrs. Williams. Sounds like you are squeezing in some fun times which is great! I wish we could have visited Farine last Friday – but the basketball team didn’t do so well on Thursday night according to the coach so they didn’t get an early morning athletics reprieve on Friday morning. Hope to make it up there to see you and all the fine teachers soon! Take care & keep smilin’! I’m reading your smile and that’s awesome!

Glad your almost back to you “old” self. No line bifocals are not to bad once you get used to them. Trust me I know.

Glad to hear that you are beginning to feel a bit more like yourself. I have the no-line bifocals (since Sept) and still trying to deal with them. Good thing I don’t have to wear them full time because life would be very strange if I did! Am on the count down to the 18th! Kids are already done!
