I’ve been busy — still unpacking and cleaning and working and, well doing all the things I have to do. If I don’t do them myself, then they kind of don’t get done….. That means I haven’t been able to post for a few days.

Last Friday (a week ago, so you see I am behind) my Mom called and said they were passing through town and could they meet me for lunch. I was glad to hear from them and tried to pick a place near where they would be driving by so they wouldn’t have to go out of their way. I picked Subway. They would have preferred The Cracker Barrel but I didn’t think about that as I tend to be kind of cheap ish…..a by product of my life.

At any rate, it was good to see my folks. I don’t see them nearly enough and I know in my heart I will regret that someday. Not to mention that as my kids get older I’m probably gonna reap what I sow. What goes around comes around. I think you get the picture.

Football season is upon us. Yeah for me. I’ve learned more about football in 10 years that I cared to learn. I can almost name off all the teams now and their mascot things. The only good thing about football season is that I can read a novel in peace, take long baths, tackle projects without being annoyed or a host of other things while Toby watches the games. For that small blessing, I am thankful!

I have an entire bag of poppy seeds that I need to sow….maybe I can do that while football is on this next weekend…..

Enjoy the beautiful fall weather, I know I am.
