Em's project for Accelerated Geometry, they had to draw a picture of something that was a vertical angle!

Em working on a another class project

Mmmm, Los Amigos!

Getting the Halloween candy ready, yummy!

The girls deep in thought during Mah Jong...once I read the rules I might start playing, lol! I love sitting in and absorbing it all, I've so missed these gals!

Mmmm, Strawberry Daquiri at Famous Daves!

Em hanging out at Hanna's with Tucker, all ready for Trick - or - Treating. Em dressed up as Gerard Way from the My Chemical Romance video for "Na Na Na"

Em and Maddie
Traffic...

I took Em and Zak out for dinner to one of their favorite places, Red Robin, it's a band thing!!

Em was off school and came in to work with me, not a bad way to spend some time, kinttin' and relaxin'!
She also finished a book, did some homework and even organized some paperwork for me!!

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow

Chili Contest at work!  It smelled delicious!

The Burning Bushes at the office next door!
 
I had forgotten how pretty the view at work from the back windows 

The sky on our way to dinner at Culver's, so pretty!

October 15 - 21, 2018


My new old lunchbox, it's not as nostalgic as my Pa's metal one but I LOVE it!

The thermos was so cute...unfortunately it had a leak in there somewhere so I'll have to find a replacement

Em had her last Marching Band Competition on Saturday at Brandon High School in Ortonville. Grammy and Papa came to watch and the weather was mostly decent. When Glenn came out to perform, the sun was shining and then just after the Awards Ceremony, the skies opened up with rain, sleet, wind and whatnot. Mother Nature gave most everyone a break that day! Thanks lady!!


A photo taken after the kids returned to the school that was posted on their facebook group!
What a great group of kids!

October 8 - 14, 2018

The John Glenn Marching Band had a festival at their school Monday night. This is a picture that her band director captured, thanks Mr. Cramer! (Em is on the right)  It was a busy week with band, Grammy and Papa came on Friday to help with Em transport to and fro while I got home from work!  Lifesavers they are!!

Train on the way to work, I miss living by the tracks in Plymouth

I decided it was chilly in the house, then realized I'd have to light the pilot on the furnace...I called tech support in Georgia...talked to some guy named Sean...who then sends me a text ...did it come on?

Psssh, "did it come on?"...seriously? Of course it did, I read the directions after being told numerous times to read them!  Came on like a champ!

Downtown Plymouth

A little fall and Halloweej decor in my cube!

I LOVE my new bird...after a Target trip today, he will have a lady friend tomorrow morning!

It's Spooky Season here in the living room!




  
A snapshot I stole from Em's Snapchat, so cute!

Friday...big day, off come the braces this morning!

Voila!  

To celebrate on our last evening of Girl's Week while Sean's been in Georgia, Em and I took to downtown Plymouth!  We saw Christopher Robin at The Penn, had dinner at Greek Islands and got ice cream from Dairy King on the last day of their season!

October 1 - 7, 2018


Hmmm, all but one picture from last week was at work!! I'm sure I'll eventually stop re-arranging, re-organizing and decorating my new cube!!
Thanks for stopping by and checking out last week!


The morning sun out the front windows of the office, so pretty!




Getting my lil' corner of the world at work organized and feeling homey! 


This guy is in the window in the team room, so cute!


Setting up/re-organizing the files feels good!


Em came in with me over the weekend to help clean, organize and she found the puzzles and was a happy camper!


Ahhh, organized files!!

I'm loving my new space!



Baked cookies for the bake sale at Em's music festival, I love the Pillsbury sugar cookies, so yummy! ps...the bowl of burned cookies did not get packaged up...we ate them at home!!

September 24 - 30, 2018

Another fun week!! John Glenn's Homecoming was this week, Em and her friends had a great time! I spent the weekend with my girlfriends at Angie's Inn on the Grand in Howell for a crafting retreat!!

My Ma & Pa sent me flowers at work to celebrate my one week anniversary!  They are the best!

One thing that I have NOT missed...traffic on the way home from work.

Craft area relocation due to...

water!!!

We had some torrential downpours last week and a bit managed to sneak in the basement

Sean made a door to Narnia taking the drywall off to inspect

Hmmm, do you smell that...I smell a craft area remodel, lol!!


I spent a loooong weekend at Angie's Inn on the Grand in Howell with my girlfriends, SOOO much fun!  Lots of crafting, drinking, eating, talking, singing, etc! Can't wait to see everyone next March!
Angie's She Shed is coming along, SO cute!





I visited Jonna's Market in Howell...they had EVERYTHING (and then some) that I needed!



Random shot from the weekend!

OH MY GOODNESS...the food was SO delicious!











Saturday night was the John Glenn Homecoming, Em went with a group of friends and a few came over to the house with their parents before for pictures, they were all so dang cute!  Chauffeur Sean drove them to the dance!! I wasn't home until photo time and Sean did a fantastic job with pictures!
