Monday November 1, 2010

I am not even going to begin telling you my feelings about today being the first day of November (WOW!!!!!).

It appears that I spent most of October on the road, but a lot was accomplished.

This is a big week for the Shrine, we are conducting our Fall Ceremonial this Saturday and it appears we will have about 50 new members. I am excited over the prospects. Great, Great things are happening in the Shrine.

I spent most of the weekend at home, finally working outside getting things ready for winter. Put away all the deck furniture, that I believe we used a total of once this entire season, cut down some overgrown plants and trees and cleaned the garage.

We had 90+ kids come by for Halloween, a pretty average year. My Uncle stopped by with my 8 year old cousin, Mary, who was adorable. I cannot beleive how tall and beautiful she is, she looks at least 13. They also brought by our goddaughter, Mya, who was dressed up as a honeybee, how gorgeous. Our two neighbors and us got together afterwards for a potluck dinner, consisting of split pea soup, salad, pasty pie and cupcakes (with some great wine inbetween each course).

I will be at the Shrine Center most of this week preparing for the ceremonial.

My Wolverines have NO DEFENSE!!!!! It is so very frustrating. I am hesitant about Greg Robinson as our Defense Coordinator, and I know that these kids are mostly underclassmen, but come on, cover someone. We are in familiar territory, similiar to last year, but I hope we can pick up some wins and get to a good Bowl. Keeping the faith, GO BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!
