Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! It is this glorious fall weather that I love so much ... high in the upper 70s today, mostly sunny and breezy, with just a slight chance of afternoon showers. Usually most of October is like this. YAY! :)
I didn't get done what I expected ... once again, had to bring home reports to work on. Starting yesterday we are using a new system, so *maybe* my end of the month reports will get a bit easier. I hope so! LOL! I'm ready to get back to my sewing now.
Today is "Guardian Angels Day" ... "Lee National Denim Day" ... "National Custodial Workers' Day" ... "National Diversity Day" ... "Phileas Fogg's Wager Day" ... "World Farm Animals Day" ... "World Smile Day" ... "Anniversary - Peanuts (comic strip)" ... "Independence Day (Guinea)".
