Hello!!!
Remembering those who served and those
who continu to serve. Thank you to those
who are keeping us safe.
As we remember the true meaning of this
holiday, I am sure everyone is finding time
to get things done around home and spend
quality time with family and friends.
My first few days of summer vacation
were filled with watching it rain cats and
dogs and A LOT of them. The weekend
has been dry and we have gotten some
projects accomplished with more to do.
More rain may come tomorrow so
we may be in the house working, which
will be good too.
How is your holiday weekend going?
Big plans??

Hello friends!
Here is is already Wednesday. Whew!
This is what is going on here:
I am two days OUT OF SCHOOL and
I am so excited! It wasn't a bad year
but it was so full of drama and I am
glad to be away for awhile. Things
will be so different next year---
should be interesting.
Before we left, we had the annual
party for those retiring or moving on
to new adventures.
For our retiree, I made this "candy cup" .
The cup had words on it that fit her
retiring. She loves chocolate too. It was
a fun little gift among the many she
received.
Our niece's graduation party was last
Saturday and for part of her gift I made
this jar. We put filler in it to match her
college colors and then we put rolled up
dollar bills in it. She can use it for laundry,
snacks, emergency cash etc.
I put a cute label on the front. When it
is empty she can refill it with loose
change or she can use ot for something
else.
We put it in a bag that matches her
high school colors.

Today I finished unloading all my
school stuff, sorted through it and
put away what I need for next
year and tossed what I didn't need
anymore. I can see the dining room
table again!!

Hello!
Today we are bringing back
"Trivia Tuesday." Many readers
have enjoyed these posts.
Our topic is...can you guess??
If you said Summer, YOU are
correct!!
Summer begins on June 20th,
5:34 p.m. CDT. Check your
time zone for the time Summer
begins in your neck of the
woods.
The Summer season lasts for
93 days,15 hours and 47
minutes.
So that would mean we have:
33 days
20 hours
11 minutes
20 some seconds
until Summer arrives!

Happy Sunday, hope it is treating
you well!
Today we are going to have a little
"Throwback" to what is happening
here.
Back in early April, I hit my 1,000th
post! Very proud of this! When I
began this blogging journey I had no
idea that I would get that far!
April also brought the A-Z Blog
Challenge, a challenge I completed.
My topic was Education. If you missed
it, click on my sidebar.
Baseball began is April also. We
have spent a lot of time cheering
the Boys in Blue-win or lose.
So happy so see the rose bush bloom.
I trimmed it and am always concerned
that I will wreck it and it won't bloom
in the Spring.
And yes, THE DREADED FACEBOOK
has taken up some of my time (a lot).
Some other things going on---
*Flooded family room twice
thankfully minor each time.
Plumber came out to mess with our
tree roots and the neighbor helped
clean our gutters so hopefully now
we can put the room back in order
and not have any more problems.
*Drove 5 hrs to Oklahoma for our
niece's wedding to turn around the
next morning and drive home because
we both got sick. Missed the wedding :(
*There are 5 1/2 days left of school!
We have three ALL day events this
week too. Summer vacay is on the
way and I CANNOT wait!!
*Another niece will graduate from
high school so we have a party to
attend next Saturday and her grad-
uation will be the Sunday of
Memorial Day weekend.
*Mr. Ken will be home that weekend
too --three day holiday weekend with
him.
The following weekend we have a much
anticipated wedding of our friend's
daughter.
Not only will she be getting a husband
but two boys also! We are so excited
for her and her family.
Somewhere in all of this we will help Mr.
Ken's brother and fiance move to there
new house and then eventually we will
have their wedding in September to
enjoy.
Whew---NO WONDER WE ARE
WORN OUT!!!

Hello Everyone!
Please pardon the absence of
this blogger. I hope someone
is still out there!!
May has flown by, this week was
full and next week will be fuller
and believe it or not I have 6 1/2
days left of the school year!! As
the saying goes "Time flies when
you are having fun!"
Today I have a question-- Have
you ever agreed to a project,
activity, obligation or commitment
and regretted that you said "YES?"
If so, did you stick it out until com-
pletion or did you find a way out of
what you agreed to do?
Today I finished an obligation that
I agreed to back at the first of the
year! I will not lie, I am SO glad this
obligation is finished. I agreed to
help a friend, but all I did was dread
Monday's and Thursday's from the
time I said yes.
I must say though that I am proud
that I stuck it out and finished the
obligation with out trying to come
up with a way to get out of it!!
Hope everyone is doing well, I hope
to get my act together and post more,
especially with school being out soon.
~Keep on Dreaming~
Hope everyone is having a Spectacular
Mother's Day!!
