It's Almost Here

I've been teaching so often lately that the weeks have slipped past me. Next week is Thanksgiving! I need to get a turkey! As I was doing dishes and wondering what to put on my list my eyes glanced over at my Mary Engelbreit calendar (I love her). The title of this years calendar is "Celebrate! It's a Good Life!!" Above you'll find one of my favorite "months" illustrations. It put my worries about shopping lists and baking into perspective!

Sunday Six on Monday

1. Brittany's Suprise Visit! What a huge, wonderful, happy Saturday morning! My only regrets are not taking lots of pictures and that she didn't wake me up on Friday night so I could have more time to play.

2. Our freakish Indian summer (snow last Thurs., 75 today and tomorrow). It's giving us one last shot at fixing a few more things outdoors in pleasant weather.

3. Having parents who love us! Helen, Bette, Tony, you rock!

4. Getting to keep up with and get to know everyone better because of their blogs.

5. Still getting lots of sub calls. I got to be a librarian last week... kind of fun.

6. As always, my husband and kids. It helps to love and be loved.

7. Gasoline... $1.87 a gallon! Yippee!
