Not only Rachel, but Ashley too....

Not only did Rachel make high honors, so did Ashley. I am soooooo proud of my granddaughters. They take school very seriously.... well at least Ashley does. She studies and freaks about every test... even when she knows all of the material.
Austin and Devon also did very well in school.
Katelyn... well she will be smart also when it is time for her to go to school... wow only four more years til kindergarten.

Rachel..... Woohoo High Honors.

Rachel made high honors. She received a certificate for her achievement. So proud of her. Rachel is one of those students were learning comes pretty easy, however she is only going to put enough effort in it to get her A. No more. ... we need to work on this.

CRAZY....

Crazy ..... It is about time for Thanksgiving. We are breaking with tradition possibly this year. Mom and I are still discussing the menu. Since it will only be one daughter and her two children, mom, my husband and me, we are thinking noodles..... However this is not set in stone yet.

Peer Court

Ashley was asked to be part of peer court. She really enjoyed it. Some of the punishments were not what she wanted. However she did feel most were fair enough.
She has been asked to be one of the attorneys. She will love that.
Ashley said that after interviewing one of the parents, the jury decided the defendant need a "stiff" penalty. They would have punished the mother if they could have.

Well one large....

Well one large stack of magazines are done. I am working on the second large stack and it is almost complete. Then I need to start on those two smaller stacks in the bookcase in my office.... I found a magazine that went back to 1994.... I have been a "pack-rat" with some magazines I guess. Can't wait to get them all finished. Sending a large box of magazines to Lara so she can get the things she wants and then she can pitch them. ....

finally

I think the girls father has finally understood how they feel about everything that he does for his step-children, current wife and not for them. Maybe he finally understands that his children should always come first. I guess going full time Army and a commanding officer reminding him has helped.
He purchased an Iphone 4s for Rachel for Christmas. She feels a little more loved now.

The stack....

The stack is growing smaller. Of course there are a few more stacks to do. Maybe by spring I will have them all finished... LOL

Gotta jump....

Gotta jump.... I am getting lots of swagbucks points. Hahahaha. I can't wait. Hope I get enough I can give my youngest at least $50.00 towards a new camera by Christmas.
If you don't have swagbucks. Sign up under me. I will get 1000 points for your first 1000 points. It is sooo easy to earn them.

Swasgbucks... another $100.00 into my account....

I have reached another $100.00 into my account. Woohoo. Now my husband will get that camera he wants so badly for Christmas.
My next goal is to give my youngest some cash to help her purchase a new camera for herself.

Sometimes....

Sometimes I just wonder. Wonder if I will ever get through all of the things I want to scan. My goal is to downsize a lot. So I will just keep plugging away.... woohoo. My youngest daughter will love all the magazines I am sending her way very soon.

Gotta love

Gotta love those preschoolers. They make teaching so much fun. I have heard all about each and everyone of their's Halloween. Love it. Now they are getting ready for Thanksgiving. And then it will be Christmas.

Time change

Ugh... I hate time change. IT just throws your body and mind into limbo.....

The girls got new jackets

The girls got new jackets today. Their mom took them. The new jackets cost over $100 each on sale.

Quaker...

Quaker is fixing up their building. They are putting on new siding. It looks so different. The rumor is that they are going to put it on the market to sell.
That won't affect us ... but it might the younger people.

Trick or Treat

We had so many people that we ran out. The bad part is that there were some adults by the end of the evening. The one adult was mad because I ran out of granola bars... well if you hadn't come with a van load of about 30 people... well I wasn't going to give him a granola bar any way... He was like 35 years old.
Halloween is for kids, not adults...
Turned out my lights when the next van load pulled up. So did all the neighbors. We got hit first and then they all disappeared....

Da Boys

Went to see our two grandsons and their folks. Spent the night. Devon needed me to update his laptop and get him all working again. Done. Shane is having some problems with his, but he will need to take it in so it can be fixed. It is missing a key line of command and the CD player and the Internet won't work. I need to see if I can get it on a flash and then have him try and fix it.
If not time for a new one.
Austin is reading a stack of books for school
Casi she is helping Devon's teacher with some kind of project with the students on the IPads.
Other than that, not much else.
Still haven't won the lottery.

Need....

Since I moved 5 posts to another blog, I need five, well 4 after this one to have at least one post for each day... yeah and boooo

Yeah because I actually have done it and boo because I have to think of something to write.

Heading out....

Heading out in a few to go visit my boys.... We had a little freezing rain about 6 o'clock this morning. So now it is all gone and I will be heading out as soon as I go to the bank and get me some cash. Later gators.

3 days...

So far there has been 2 days of school in November and on Monday there it will be 3. I will have subbed everyday of school in November on Monday.... hahaha.
I love it.

Nov. 1

Wow we are now in the Thanksgiving count-down. I will be getting ready with the holiday planning. Cookies, candies and food. The kids are looking forward to coming by after school and helping with the baking and cooking. Yeah. So now I need to get a grocery list made and start planning the times to do everything. Love it....
