Gee Pat, you could be Mrs. Robinson....lol. Its cloudy, sunny off and on here today. Mid 70s.
I went to a graduation party today for the son of a guy I used to babysit for...he was my brother's best friend...so its been nice to watch the son grow up ..nice young man. Tomorrow we are going to my Aunt and Uncles surprise 50th anniversary at the Bates Mansion in Cavendish. These are relatives on my mother's side so it should be interesting to see all my "old" cousins..
Karen, you know you are always welcome to stop by....or anyone else in the neighborhood. I have been working on my yard.....I should go out and mow soon. I went to the movies last night with one of my teacher friends and her 13 year old daughter...Don't waste your money seeing "Love Guru" with Mike Myers...pretty sad! I am so glad that school is out!!! Its even worth not getting paid! Lori, things will all work out ...don't stress yourself out ( You can tell me that in September)...enjoy it...remember, it won't happen again for your daughter!
Have a great weekend everybody!

Wow, Patti, you've got a young student coming onto you. I'm impressed!
Karen, have a good trip. We never seem to be in Vermont at the same time. What about L.A.? Any plans to come here sometime? Did you and Richard end up getting together?
It's so hot here, the air conditioner can't even keep the house as cool as we want it to be. I think I'll jump in the pool later.
The wedding is getting closer. Now it looks like we'll also be having a big family meal here on the Friday before the wedding. Help! This is the first time we'll be meeting Darren's parents. Danit and Darren also want them to meet Avi's family before the wedding, so I guess we'll have them over to eat. Maybe not all of them, but at least the ones who come to our usual Friday night meals. My sister Katie and her husband and kids will also be here. So will Avi's uncle (coming from Kenya) and his aunt from Jerusalem. So will Darren's uncle and cousin from Colorado. My favorite thing. Hosting and feeding a huge group. Help! Help!

Rain, rain, and more rain. Finally got the lawn dry enough to do a little mowing but I couldn't start th mower. Jeez I was mad. I went out on 3 different tries but it wouldn't start. So the yard looks awful. Terribly overgrown. Dave is leaning toward buying a rider but I'll be surprised if he does it. I paid a student from my neighborhood to do it a couple of weeks ago but he didn't do a good job and felt a little free with his relationship with me afterwards so I had to nip that in the bud.

Happy Father's Day.
Only 1 1/2 days of school left!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The word came down on Friday that we definitely have to be all packed to move out of our classroom this week. They are doing all the renovating of our building, plus adding on an addition...but they didn't know until Friday that they were going to be working on our end??? Please...they kept saying, we dont' know yet....anyways, it should be interesting! We are going to be moved into a portable classroom until the new rooms are ready.
Neil helped me put mulch down in my big flower garden today. I would have still been laying the landscaping paper....so, I certainly appreciated the help. Beautiful weather here today...warm with a nice breeze, unless you were out in the sun and it was very warm!
My daughter called today and said that she and her fiancee were going to a Iron Maiden concert tonight. I forgot to ask her where they had to go for it...
So, that is all the excitement I know...hope all is well with all of you!
