Happy September! I need to wait a little longer before I'm ready to decorate for fall. 3rd-4th week of September then I'll start thinking about it, when it's officially fall... I'm hoping to have motivation this year to actually do a few things, but we'll see if anything more than a wooden pumpkin and a few candles actually make it out. Have already bought my first 4 kohls blankets though!!

I think yesterday the Daily Deal was home things. I know the throws are higher today than yesterday.

As someone that works in the technology department of my school system... I completely understand. We are in our 3rd week of school, and I'm still stressed. But last week I only cried during the work day twice, and only cried myself to sleep (at 3am!) once, so it's getting better! Just remember... we gotta FEED the children! Even in technology, we go by that. If the computer goes down, write it down, but the babies have to eat. Hugs!

20 weekends until Christmas. Sounds like a good milestone to make a schedule. Concentrate on 1 person a week. 1 gift a week. Alternate between a stocking and gift. In my case, I'd like to make 10 blankets, and although they *could* be made in a weekend, 2 is more realistic. I better get knitting!

Just moved kid #3 into the 3rd college housing in 3 years. 6th time moving a kid in, hopefully the last!

Happy August. Not only is today the first day for my school system, but it's also move in day for my youngest for college. The first day of school was about the worst day to have to be off. That just means a lot of catching up tomorrow!

School starts tomorrow. I am hoping I have all the things done and ready for the students to come back. I am exhausted though!

I bought 4 last night. Even paying shipping they were just a little over $9, close enough to BF to know those are bought! And that I won't miss out on those prints.

I got cat treats, some ink pens, and a garage door opener. I didn't get anything last year. Prime day is very overwhelming for me. Not to mention this week is the start of crazy at work so it's hard to shop.

Um... that's in my cart too. I might chicken out on it though!

HOORAY! I got it! And if anyone was wondering, it's not limited to 1 set (I got 4 shirts). And guess what?! They now will print to order their old designs. There's a shirt my husband has been wanting, one of the first ones, but it hasn't been available (to be fair, I haven't looked in years). But I was able to get that too. He's going to be so surprised. Now I want to go look back through ALL the shirts!

Alright... I'm just gonna come back to this later... safer for everyone and everything involved! It's now telling me that my Amazon password is incorrect, even though it signed me in just a couple hours ago!

Thanks! I'll go try that!

They made a Twitter post a couple hours ago, and someone commented about activating the banner. So guess it's not just me. Yay. But it also sounds like it's not starting yet. I'll try tomorrow. Need a bunch of shirts? Of course you do. T-shirts are the cornerstone of any balanced outfit. That's science. Good thing we have this BOGO Prime Day sale prepped and ready to go.

Yeah... and it emptied my cart. Then I did it over. I finally got the email. And tried from there too. What's weird, is that it has a "Learn More" link, but it just takes you to the main Shirt page. I'll keep trying. Maybe it hasn't started yet. Some really cute shirts though! It's been ages since I've looked through Woot shirts. It's been fun.

I apparently have my dumb face on today... Has anybody done this yet? I can't find anything on the page about it, and cant get them to come up BOGO.

Husband has been wanting to buy a new truck for a couple months. We finally went into the dealership today and placed a special order with the factory. Now we wait. He does NOT do waiting very well. We almost impulse bought a Mustang GT for me while we were there. They had just got a trade in yesterday in the color I wanted with very low miles, so it was tempting. That would have been a bad idea!!

Stranger Things Season 3 is out today. Waiting for my gang to finish all their morning stuff so we can start watching it. C'mon guys, it's 11am! Let's get started!!

July 1. New teachers start in 2 1/2 weeks, all teachers in 3 1/2 weeks, and kids come back to school 1 month from today. This week should still be pretty calm, but next week... it's about to be crunch time!

We went berry picking today. We got a gallon of blueberries and 2 gallons of blackberries. I always go overboard and then we can't eat them all. I'll make some BlackBerry jam, so that will make a dent. We don't much eat fruit on or in things, so I don't know why I always get so much. But fresh picked fruit is SO good!!

Oh! It is June! School is out so we will be working 4 10 hour days a week starting this week since there are no students or teachers. It will be nice having Fridays off for 6 weeks!

I am addicted to chap stick, I have them everywhere. Kitchen counter, bathroom counter, 2 in purse, desk at work, and will make sure I have one in my pocket if I dont have my purse.

Oh I love that pouch! Great idea. Chapstick with a GD logo would be a neat addition to the survival kit!

Hooray it's May! My youngest turns 20 this month. So I'm about to be all out of teenagers after 14 years of having at least 1. I never had all 3 teenagers at the same time though.

Happy Easter! It's also my BIL's birthday. So we will have Easter dinner, but normal birthday cake, so means no complicated dessert for me to make.
