Almost September...

Where oh where has the month of August gone? Schools are back in session, and before we know it... you know what will be here!

We went to the county fair on Friday and I saw some sweet bunnies... Oh do they ever make my heart sing!

BUSY WEEK !

This was a very busy week.. We went back to work after 2 weeks off.. This week was filled with several inservices, and preparing the classroom for the return of the students..

Monday was an inservice on Verbal Behavior

Tuesday we worked in the classroom

Wednesday we also worked in the classroom

Thursday was CPR certification and worked in the class

Friday was an inservice on PAARR training and we finished working in the class...

I've also started knitting this for the grandbaby that is due to arrive early March.. I sure hope it is a girl as these are really girlie colors...

Back to work for me...............

This week was back to the same ole' stuff... "WORK".. Not too bad as it is training week.

Tried up loading pics and blogger is not letting me. HOHUM!

RHUBARB STRAWBERRY JAM!

Yesterday I decided to try my hand at some Rhubarb Strawberry Ja. I have a huge patch of rhubarb, and I had just bought some strawberries, so.... I made these 8 pints of jam. I have a friend that lives in ME and she inspired me.... It tastes better than it looks in the jars..

My next adventure will be Apple jelly!

DISH RAG TAG

Our teams have been assigned! "YEAH"... Now we have to wait until the fun begins, and see when we receive the package in the mail, and then knit like wild fire and send it off again! This should really be "FUN"!

Sweater done..

I've finally finished the sweater for Brynn Elizabeth.

I hope Brynn gets a lot of use out of this..

HAZY DAY!

It is a Hazy day here... We do need the rain, but geez.....I'm on vacation and I wanted to enjoy the outdoors... Temps are suppose to be 90 today w/ possible rain.

I've been knitting on a baby sweater for a x-coworker who just had a baby girl a week ago. The name they chose is Brynn Elizabeth, what a beautiful name!

Also have several pairs of socks on the needles.. One I'm focusing on are the socks for SFS....

Happy Knitting!
