(VERY) Random Review

Today is my last day of summer vacation. I have in-service beginning bright and early Friday morning. My students come on Wednesday of next week. I spent today making sure my house was clean-as-could-be. I even washed the slipcovers on my furniture and took all the throw-pillow covers off and washed them as well. I like the thought of going back to school with my house all clean. I am going to spend today at the pool. Relaxing.

We moved into this house 

the last week of school in May.

It was perfect timing if there is 

such a thing as 

perfect timing

in a move.

We stripped and (dark) stained 

all the wood floors

in the WHOLE house.

What a huge job!

Then I spent my summer

unpacking,

organizing,

moving things around,

decorating,

painting, 

hanging,

building,

and making our new (old) house

into a home.

Next summer I already 

have big plans

lined up.

I want to put different 

wall treatments 

on different walls

throughout the house.

Our ceilings are so tall that

the walls really need something

to break up the massive space.....

.......Besides pics of course!

I know that I will be 

waiting on the weekends

to get here, now that school has begun!

I will save my big projects for weekends,

but I think there are 

plenty of projects

I can work on 

after school as well!

Usually I absolutely dread the 

thought of summer being over.

This year is a little different.

I didn't spend the summer baking in the sun

since I was so busy working on the house.

The intense heat here in Oklahoma made it too

hot to even want to go out.

 

So since school is starting

that means 

football is starting too.

I 

LOVE football.

I will watch hours and hours of

grade school (my nephew),

high school (my students)

college, (my SOONERS)

and pro (most anyone) football 

over the next few months.

This is the mind-game

I play with my mind....

Soooooooooo if 

school is starting 

then so is

football.

If football is starting 

it must be Fall.

(Living for) Friday's. Football. Fall

Ahhhh. All is right in the world.

I'll be in the pool all day,

thinking about "fall" 

beginning tomorrow!
