It's Getting Closer to Christmas!

We have had a terrific summer! Our son's in-laws made their first trip to the USA. They are from England and had some reservations about visiting but before the trip had ended, they were talking about coming back next summer! We made a trek to the Black Hills and did ALL the tourist things including WALL DRUG! There was even time for a trip to Wyoming and Devils Tower! We did some house renovations in preparation for their visit so I hope if they come again next summer we can renovate the bathroom! It really needs a big face-lift!

School has started and I'm working 4 days a week. I have Fridays off and I really look forward to sleeping in! It also gives me an extra day to do planning.

Global warming - our summer has been VERY cool and this winter is predicted to be VERY cold, so I don't know that I can believe in global warming. My husband was hoping for a very hot and humid summer for the corn to ripen and he's still waiting!

Tomorrow is the 8th anniversary of 9-11. Keep all the families that lost loved ones in your prayers. Fly your flag and be proud of our wonderful United States of America. The Star Spangled Banner still flies high and mighty over the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave!
