Up early School starts soon

Yes indeed,
It does. And with that "Busy"
Lots on my mind
But wanted to share some happy thoughts
Yesterday was Bobby's birthday. I came home to spend the evening with him and he was content to start reading a new book he got himself with a gift certificate from Sasha. He does not read hardback books waits for them to come out on paperback. Baloo decided to eat part of it last night. So angry about that dog sometimes. Then i realize it is a dog and needs to be trained. So i walked outside and looked up at the sky and Thanked God for all my blessings and wonderful years with this man. I love him so much! Then as i looked over Baloo was pooping. Go figure!
It was also Ra's 29th birthday. My baby girl, first born is now a mama. The circle of life continues as it should. She makes me happy. Great weekend but feeling a little tired and still have lots on my plate. Going to get Bobby a new TV, flat screen for his birthday. He is going to be sooooo excited! I know he is.
I will work on getting that all organized today.

Want to put some pictures on my blog... Stay organized.... Which i am doing now. Up early catching up on paperwork in the office !!!!!

Back at work... But wanted to check on my to do list.

So checking back on my to do list. I actually accomplished half of them. I am pleased with that since i only had a couple of weeks to get them done. Not bad "cc"
Had fun catching up on the blogs. Now i just need to keep moving !!!

Heavenly Hawaii Scents

My note to Robin:

You made me so happy there are no words.  When the boxes arrived we were both home.  Bobby reading and me getting some much needed piles of paper sorted and taken care of.  And it said flowers.  I was not sure if they came to the right address.  No birthday, anniversary.  And Bobby was just as surprised as i was then he said they are from Robin.  Oh My Goodness.  The smell as soon as i opened the box made me drunk with laughter.  Needless to say i wore it all day and actually slept with some of the tuberose
flowers.  I am still enjoying their sweet fragrance.  A thank you is just not enough.  The love that you sent is timeless.  I had promised a friend that i would take her to get her car.  She is a teacher at my school.  Her A/C broke which caused a fish tank to leak (?)  Anyway lots of fans at her house and i took her to get her car with her little 8 month old.  As she stepped in my car i could tell by the look on her face she was wanting to know what i had on my neck.  When she opened the car door she said Those are real aren't they.  "Well yes, they are!  All the way from Kuai."  It made us both happy.  Then i had to go to Ra's so she could take a picture and share this treasure.  Since last night was church night, i posted on facebook i would be coming with my piece of heavenly hawaii scent.  All the girls took turns holding it and smelling it.  The little children loved it so much.  We all laughed and commented we had never gotten lei'd at church before.  Now we could not say that.  AHHH Robin you are wonderful.  Thank you Thank you so much for your lovely gift.  WE often say one day we will go back and that day will come I am sure of it.  In the mean time, know you made this Ga girl one happy mama.  Of course Bobby loved his also and knew John did not want him to feel left out. I made him keep smelling it. You may be far in miles and distance but you are very close to us in our hearts. You are loved. As i have explained how we know you its always simple to sum it up as "Bobby's brother from another mother."


Hugs.  Aloha my friends.

ONE WEEK AWAY -

It is almost here!!

My first Triathalon at Lake Lanier

I have been training and preparing for this grand adventure

But the real fun is that my family is behind me all the way.

Who does this for the first time at 56?  I'm just sayin'

Next week is the last week for students at HHS.

This year has literally flown by.

Days come, anticipated weekend passes

Then i do it again.

Bobby has kidney stone surgery that was a long, 2 week painful process for him but it is behind us now and i can see he feels so much better

Going to talk to him about doing weight watchers online

I want him to be more healthy and be much more active with me

Praying for Sasha she is lonely and her dog Baloo itches like crazy

That has got to be stressful.  It is when he stays with us while she is doing her 12 hour shifts.  So 3rd vet consult on Monday.  Things to do today...
