Good morning! I am lounging in bed watching the "Today" show looking for Katie and Penny in the audience. Katie called early this morning to tell me she was in line and that I should watch. Lucky for her we actually got TV this week (AND wireless internet - which means I am using legal internet!). Anyway, I have not seen her yet, but I will keep watching!
The summer is winding down, which means that the craziness is starting to wind down, too. it is far from over, but at least some of the nuttiness is out of the way. Summer camp is over and all went well. We had about 45 kids each day for day camp at Sampson State Park.
Amy and I did some major work on Martine's bedroom this weekend. It is almost finished - just need to put something on the windows. I bought a miniblind today, and of course bought it too short so when you pull on the cord, the shade falls. I always do that. I don't think I have ever been able to buy shades that were actually the right size.
What else? Well....we are winding down the days to Disney! That is exciting. That also means we are winding down the days to Bella. THAT is exciting, too.
Have you read anything good lately? I HIGHLY recommend The Kite Runner as well as A Thousand Splendid Suns, both byKhaled Hosseini. His writing is gorgeous and haunting all at the same time. The stories are ones that stick with you a long time after reading. I just finished A Thousand Splendid Suns this weekend. Amazing.
More good news - Brian Acton is ALIVE. I talked with him the other day and he was on his way to be a cowboy for the weekend. We are all anxious for a report, Slick.
This week is staff development with my team, so I better hit the sack. I need to be on my toes. They have been off all summer, but I sure have not been!
Good night! Won't be so long next blog.
