Ye Ole Blog!

I am in one of those moods that I need to write so I know how I feel! 
First things first, I was shocked to see that I have not written since July 29!! Gulp!!! I have finally figured out why my writing became first sporadic, then dribbled down to a pitiful trickle that eventually dried up! The answer is this - Writing is an outlet of creativity to me. I love to take an ordinary day and through the magic of thoughts turned into words, spin it into a splendrous story of real life. While teaching, the compulsory urge to fill those creative crevices in my soul by blogging just isn't there because I pour all my expressive energies into my classroom and the 8 little souls who inhabit it for 6.75 hours each day! So, I have finally made peace with my writing and/or the lack of it. I will write when and if the need strikes! 
Just a few ramblings now about the things that have transpired since I've last written! The seasons have changed....Fall is falling into place. Pumpkins and mums, here I comes!!! :) I officially dove-hunted for the first time yesterday and had a blast blasting bird shot into space with nary a bird to show for it! Danl's knee is still soreish whenever he is on it for any length of time. Wedding bells are ringing for Erica with the final bong sounding on November 1. So churning out some new frocks is the first thing on this week's "Things to do After I Get Home From School" list. If only sewing would soothe my soul like writing does...
