Scarves and Mittens

Alas, a big wind comes... and there goes fall. and warm weather. but the air is crisp and the sky is clear. it's beautiful!

life is getting back to "normal"... though slowly. Amy will be returning to school tomorrow. And we will see how it goes.

I'm continuing to learn that I can't do it on my own. He has brought people along to help in so many ways. And I got a little surprise party as well. Carl, my principal, presented about taking Flat Stanley to a conference and happened to bring candy and brownies for the kids. It was so sweet and encouraging, and a great boost on a Friday afternoon after a long week... well, month.

This past week sleep has been... what's the right word? busy? my to-do list and stress keep appearing in dreams and when I wake up I'm no better off than when I went to sleep. It made it a little tough. This week is full, but, but luckily with less kids, but more to-do's. Basketball gets'a'movin' about 7 practices before our tournament. But, happily, I am now the owner of an electric blanket :-) so that makes it a little more cozy. And I'll work on the writing to-do's down before bed. Stuff always gets done, and stressing won't help. 

Speaking of bed... going to go early :-)
