VERY Pretty

Jeff had a lot of fun up near Vail and he has a VERY fancy camera that takes gorgeous pictures like this. Welcome to the Colorado Rockies!

A man and his wife live in this little cabin. They get snowed in all winter.

Miles and miles of magnificent . . .


Now, back to the Mile High City and specifically Mrs. M's classroom. Today we acted out West Side Story and then I let them watch some of the scenes we read. They LOVE it.

It is one million degrees in my classroom. I am melting! Melting! Even the kids are complaining. Pray for repairs soon, PLEASE! I can't wear my swimsuit to work.

Even Will would complain if he could!

I packed up and left earlier than usual today - to escape the inside temps! After the hot (again) commute home, I had to have a meander through the yard, getting my fresh air fix!

These went into a little vase with a few pieces of garden produce!

I wanted you to see my little collection of mini-bags. One is from Egypt, one from the Philippines, one from India . . . and the little velvet one was a gift from a friend.

Sorry these are in such random order. Here's a pink bud for you.

Some blues for you!

And a sweet skein of lovely . . .

A bear, a basket of pine cones and a sweet little lamp Reve gave me.

I'm thankful that it is still warm and I can continue to go sockless and wear capris to school.

I'm kind of discouraged going to Weight Watchers. Last week, I lost a miraculous four pounds but this week I had a .8 pound gain. At least the gain is only 1/2 of a pound, but still. I am being good. I guess I just need to run ten miles a day. Sigh.
The school days are way too energy expensive and I do remember how great it was to pace myself this summer, and LOAF! Oh well. I still can't get to my cute bunting, but soon I will - I hope! Sorry for the random photos and garbled blah, blah, blah. Bill's in Singapore and I miss him. He still has to go to Australia before he comes home to me. Pout. Pout. Pout.
I hope you are doing well. I hope you have more time to make bunting than I do. I'm a bad multi-tasker and I am honestly beginning to think I will NEVER change. I worry about dumb stuff. xopp
