peach thanks for the coffee, I need a gallon this morning. liz, I hope you and miss peach are sleeping as I type this.
Happy Thanksgiving to our friends in the north. Enjoy your family today.
Janice, 8 plans for the whole city!!! WOW, is that crazy or what.
I put hubby on a plane yesterday afternoon, he is back to London for more business meetings. He will be home Friday afternoon, I will pick him up at the airport and we will rush to the school to chaperone band for an away football game. I'm hoping his plane is not late on Friday.
Brag alert!! We took the band to a competition Saturday. On the way to the competition the buses got lost. We found a policemen to ask for directions, not only did he give us directions, he lead the buses with lights flashing to the competition. It must have been good luck as we placed FIRST in our division!!! We placed second overall, lost to a MUCH bigger band by .17, less than a point. The kids had a great show Saturday night. We did have a few problems, one of our band members had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital after the performance, she has asthma and it kicked in during the performance. She is fine now. Thank goodness, my dear friend and the head chaperone is a RN.
School is out here today too. I have a few coupons to Lane Bryant that run out today. Think daughter will go with me to see what I can buy cheap, she is a very good critic, if it doesn't look good she has no problem telling me.
Anyone heard of, or been to a grocery store called Aldies (not sure if that is spelled right.) We had one open fairly near to us and I want to try it out. Any insight anyone?
Coffee cup is empty, have a great one all.

I can't believe I said that and meant it! Today is sunny so we will do it again in better weather and maybe go a bit farther. The nature trail in the Park is looking good so we may do that before the hunting season starts. I stay out of the bush when that time is here!
Football has been really keeping us busy--he is playing both F/S and Varsity so that means 18 games. We have 5 total left-maybe more if we make the playoffs on varsity. We are as they say "on the bubble" we need one more win to get in and have 2 tough games ahead. If the team DOES make it to the playoffs it will be the first time in the school's history. Last week was Homecoming here. Skit night the cheerleaders asked him and some other Varsity players to be in their skit and wear the cheerleader uniforms I told him it was a good thing he had the legs for it--what a hoot! Then he was in the Sophmore skit and was John Madden as the MC. Had it down right down to the way he talks he had people crying they were laughing so hard. I loved it!DS did not take a date to the dance, nor did any of his friends. They go "stag". I don't know if it's because they aren't driving yet, or if he is just not interested. I think it is a bit of both. My class this year is challenging to say the least. I have 28 kids and about 10 of them have IEP's for learning problems. As chubby as I am there just doesn't seem to be enough of me to get to all that they need. 
Frustrating. I just got the "Smart Technique" tapes this weekend. They are supposed to help you subliminaly (sp) to change your bad habits. I don't if they will work for that, but listening to the CD before I go to sleep has gained me a couple of extra hours of sleep two nights in a row.
