Hello, fall

Today, we had no school in honor of ACL weekend. Yes, we dismiss classes unofficially for ACL. And, what a better day to not have school! It was our first sub 60 degree morning in 6 months and it felt marvelous. To honor that first chill, here's a Snow sighting (aka Snow the cat).

Three day weekend

Hallelujah! Working at a private boarding school, we don't get the same breaks as everyone else. So, yes, we labored on labor day. So, now I refrain from laboring while everyone else labors. To honor that, I started it out with a little Peculiar Children, some blankets, and recliners. And, I'm thankful for all of it.

A seat in the great outdoors

Tonight, I decided to try a walk since I still can't shake this post-op sickness. When I finished, I was treated to this serene view outside our house, complete with my favorite new book on Audible. Tonight, I'm thankful for...trees. Yes, trees.

Picking up where I left off

In this year of trying to finish things I started a while ago, I'm trying to finish my Adobe certifications and Web languages. I found this photo that reminded me of the time when I started all of these crazy challenges. Today, I laugh as they become more of a reality.

Goodbye yellow brick road

Today, I felt like I made progress in returning to the land of the living after last week's surgery. And, I celebrated by doing another pair of shoes - The Beatles! Today, I'm thankful for progress along that road.

Shakes & rain

Today, I  enjoyed the first rain in over a month and a shake. The shake seemed to be the perfect treat for my post-op healing.

A day of rest

Today, I spent a good portion of the day sneezing from my surgery. However, I was able to take some breaks with some soup, cats, and learning new things. So, today, I'm thankful for the rest.
