Never too old...

I love homecoming week, despite the crazy blips and blurps that happen to the normal daily schedule routine.

Today's blip and blurp:  DODGEBALL SHOWDOWN!

And every year, once the classes battle for Top Dog, the mighty mean Staff team gives them a run for their money.

Sadly, this year...... we weren't so victorious :|  BUT, still dang-tootin' fun :)

This year's big winners:  Our Junior class!  Yes...QUITE intimidating.

Okay...it's Wednesday, right?  Holy moly.... these days are flying by.  And I'm exhausted.  But still smiling and Whoo-hooping it up :)

Brrrr Baby!

Say hellllllo to those frosty Fall temperatures!

Twenty-nine degrees were flashing at us when we checked the kitchen window this morning.   Brrrrrrrr!

BUT, our tomatoes survived!  Which is a good thing, because yet another friend wants a big load for preserving this weekend.  Besides, we tried out our first batch of Spaghetti sauce from a couple of weeks ago.....YUMMMMMM!!!!!!  We want to make up one more batch to hold us 'til next year.

And with the Fall colors and activities, our school is in the middle of Homecoming week festivities!  Can you tell what today's "dress-up" day was???   What a hoot :)

Gosh, these evening hours fly by!  I really want to do some sewing or embroidering tonight.... but I'm simply too pooped to walk downstairs to start anything right now.

Happy Tuesday.

Loads to do ; Must resist a QOV Mystery!

Another Homecoming week (almost) wrapped up....The Homecoming Dance remains, scheduled for tonight, but I have no plans of attending.
We truly have a great student-body this year; some amazing seniors! (and yeah...even that clown peeking through from the background. :0) )

And our Queen didn't let us down (although our King did) :0) {{In all reality, I'm actually glad our King Jesse decided to back-off on the icecream eating. Afterall, he had a big football game to play a couple of hours after this craziness!!!}}

And our amazing Mrs. Amanda, 7-12 secretary, kept the days running smoothly with her lovely southern-drawl announcing over the PA system. I don't remember where she hails from, but she CLEARLY came from the south somewhere; her southern hospitality is always shining through when she needs to bring out her "people-skills."

So now....bright-n-early awake on a Saturday. Loads on the agenda; For Paul -- butcher piggies (ewww) and dig potatoes. For me: LOTS of school work lesson planning and documentation..... I think it could be an all-day thing, so I will get busy very shortly!!!! Because......

Mystery Quilts 4 Military is started a mystery, and I'm really interested in starting. BUT.....I've been resisting it so far :0) {{It started yesterday}}
