ARrrrgggghhhh!!!!

I cannot find my camera cables (and I do mean plural) anywhere??!!! My cleaning for the cleaners must be super good because I have no idea where either one of them is hiding?!

The first day of school was great - the kids like their teachers, they got there in time, they like seeing their friends - then reality set in......they had HOMEWORK!!! And the crab session already started - Hellloooo?? It is going to be a long school year if that kept up. So I said, that's it - no more - it's only the first day!

The worst of the worst was as I predicted - the traffic - I could not believe how many cars were on the road - it took FOREVER to get home. The main road back to my house is a one lane each way type road - because it's right on the ridgeline/foothill so even if they wanted to widen it, the only way they could, would be to level the hill or take out a bunch of homes, neither of which I see happening in this century. It was crazy - every mom must have been on the road yesterday - today was much much more manageable.

Anyway - it has been HOT HOT HOT here - I wilt in the heat so I can't wait until it cools down. I better find that cable soon - I have to post some pictures!!!!

On a more somber note - my grandpa called and said my grandma hasn't been feeling well. I'm the eldest grandchild - I call her once every week & a half or so, I try for every week, but you know how it is.... she has poor circulation in her leg, and other elder issues - but they want to look at her for possible by-pass surgery - I think she may be too fragile....it's different when you are an older grandchild - because I remember my grandma younger, when she was working, when she got remarried (she was a widow), when she retired, taking me on vacation - cooking for me - I always thought my grandma was the coolest because she was the only woman I knew who liked to drink beer, although I never could stand the smell. I'm hoping and praying the Dr's will help her out - my grandparents are very active, they do lunches and breakfast groups, church group, she did the hula for a long time, she loves paper crafts, and even does taxes!

Anyway - I'm hopeful - it's been fun to start getting back into the swing - had PT today and Linda watched Lucas then I brought back Quesadilla Explosion Salads from Chili's - yum... well onto tomorrow - good night!
