Good evening girls
How did all the children do in school? Are they all settling in? I told Heather about all of them today, and she looked so sad. It reminded her of how much she hated changes in school.
We were wondering- Colleen- why do the kids have so many different schools in your area? That must be extremely hard. A parent could have kids in 4 different schools at one time.
Gail- How are you doing- I have not seen any post from you today.
I have not seen anything form Cynthia, either.
Gary’s doctor appointment went well today. One stint s out. We were shocked to see it is about 10 to 12 inches long. We thought it was a tiny little thing. I think ignorance in these situations is a o good thing.
Hope everyone is doing well, and that your day was good!
Adele
PS……cannot find the picture of the Eagle I posted, so I am doing it again- hope it works this time!

Hi Colleen
We did not get any rain at all form the thunderstorms- they passed north of us. So we had to water the garden again….LOL
I tried to post a picture yesterday, and it disappeared. let me know if you see a picture of an Eagle. This stinks, as I like to show you all cute pictures of baked goods, and decorations!!!
Our grands in Revere started school today, and I did not realize it. I assumed they started the same day as the Saugus ones, so I missed wishing them well. I will call them when they get home. These different starting times for all the schools is so confusing. The vocational school down the street starts Monday. The rest of them start the day after Labor day. How can we keep this all straight? At least your kids all start on the same day in your state.
Steph took the kids, and the dog to the beach last night. I will hear about this later, when they all get up. they have been sleeping real late.
After my doctor appointment tomorrow, I come back, and get Tillie in the car to go to the hairdresser. I am in the middle of a decision on my hair. I have let it grow out, and not dyed it in a biy. I am trying to decide if I am just going to give in, and let it go grey. So, I will really look like a witch on Halloween, with all the roots showing….LOL LOL The last time I did this, I gave in.
It is still humid here. I am dying for it to change. I have not sat out on the deck in 2 weeks. It is supposed to break this afternoon. Like you, I love the cooler weather, and the snow. But, last year was a little much. I have not even made the zucchini bread I planned to do this week…..maybe tomorrow.
Hope you are out on the deck with Ron, enjoying the weather before he does something bad that requires more potato soup!

Well ladies.

I was able to finally do the friend thing. I did find some of my old friends, but, it is a huge list, so I did not get through it all. I was also surprised at a name I found. I did not find Patrick’s name yet, nor Barbara’s….LOL I did find Angel’s, thank God!

I wonder is Angel will post another Halloween cake idea, like last year’s. I loved replicating that cake. It was so much fun!

Hi colleen
I figured out how to accept friend, but still not how to ask for one. Sue friended me. I have not seen Barbara on yet. I know I read that Gail was in touch with her, and I hope she comes over.

Gail and Colleen- the story about the kids in the fairy dresses is priceless!

hey Cynthia- we all have value pays going until next year….LOL

Hi Colleen
I just put on The Chew. They have had repeats all this week. I have watched some of them. I will see if today’s is a good one, or it will get shut off. they are doing a Luau today.
On Labor Day around here they do something in Town. Actually, I am not sure if it is Lay, or Columbus Day weekend- it is a Heritage Days thing. We have never gone to it, as we are usually in NH. We do not go to NH for weekends anymore. I know more about what they do, than here.
How are the kids doing in school? we still have 2 weeks before JJ goes back, and Marissa starts college. I heard that the Farmers almanac is predicting another bad winter. god help us!

hi Gail
I feel the same way- I cannot even look when the guy regurgitates. It is absolutely disgusting. Then, you hear the story of why he started to do it, and your heart bleeds for him. Still not enough to watch!
Calling it gravy is an Italian thing. Nobody in Italy calls it sauce, nor in East Boston, or the North End of Boston. things are changing with the newest generation, I would venture to say. A real Italian will still call it gravy. We have all laughed about that for years!
I keep telling Heather Rissy is not moving out. She will be home with you every day- enjoy it, it is not going to last much longer.
It is going to be very stormy here this afternoon. Thunderstorms, and then the big chance to less humidity. I am waiting for that!
I cannot wait to see the new cast of DWTS. I love the Fall for so many reasons- the smells, apple picking, apple crisp, hot apple cider donuts, Halloween, and then the new TV shows.
hope your weather is good!
Adele
