Wrapping up summer

Well, I have gone back to work for the school year and hit the ground running. At least this year I will already have some idea of the responsibilities I will have. That can only mean good things.

Madgette is staying home with her daddy during the day and seems glad to see me when I walk through the door. They have made a few trips to the library but I think mostly this week she has just enjoyed hanging out in her "teenage" room (as she calls it). One more week of hanging with dad and she is off to horse camp. She is counting down the days, and so excited she can hardly stand it. A spend the night camp, for 5 days! Plus, she is going to find out if horses are worth all the work it takes to have them.

The Razorback has made the difficult decision to focus on school full time this upcoming year. He is enrolled at Sam Houston State and will have classes 4 days per week. He will be substituting on Tuesdays. Hopefully if he focuses on nothing but college for a while he will finish up next summer, but no later than next Christmas. We are all looking forward to that!

I will try and blog a little more regularly than I did over the last year, but I thought you all deserved a little catch up blog first!

A New Dr. Suess Book

I do not like this Uncle Sam,

I do not like this health care scam,

I do not like these dirty crooks,

or how they lie and cook the books.

I do not like when Congress steals,

I do not like their secret deals.

I do not like this speaker, Nan,

I do not like this "YES WE CAN."

I do not like this spending spree,

I'm smart, I know that nothing's free.

I do not like your smug replies,

when I complain about your lies.

I do not like this kind of hope.

I do not like it- nope, nope, nope!
