If it's so autumn now, why was it 87 degrees today?

I am going to head out soon and hit Wawa and Dunkin Donuts both for some free (It's Coffee Day) liquid refreshment. How nice of them!

Today I had two classes for HR Block and I ran down to AAA in between to renew my membership which is up on Thursday. I even stopped at the gym for a workout, but when I realized I didn't have my book with me (to read while I treadmilled and biked), I went home.

No dancing tonight, but soon (yay). Tomorrow...the gym. For real. Book in hand.

Eva Cassidy

Here is an Eva Cassidy playlist I don't want to lose:

It was her version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow they played during the In Memorium segment of the Emmy Awards.

We went to the movies tonight (Maze Runner 2) after I got home from my Contact shift.

Yesterday was Eastampton Fun Day. It went well, but boy were we tired by the end!

Too much driving!

Bad news: boo hoo...I left my leather jacket behind at the Sayen School for DKG State meetings.
I didn't realize until we were heading out the movies tonight (Tom is still too sick with a cold to go dancing). I hate when I leave things and lose them (I still miss my great green sweater I lost at the NEA convention ten years ago.....) I left a message for the State President, but my hopes are not high for recovery.

I was there for the technology part and I learned a few things that made it very worthwhile. Also, I was happy to share my "hotspot" with Carol from Lambda since it was my last day of verizon data for the month and I hadn't even used the free 1 gig up yet! (What I learned included a way to clean up you tube videos when embedding so all the other ads and additionals aren't part of it! :-)  Also, more about the new Periscope app (interesting, but I see a lot of abuse potential). I knew about bit.ly but was glad for the reminder. I can find all the members' info on the website (and I know the password).

Lunch was good.

Friday I had a pretty big schedule. Morning SHIP appointments, then the wonderful painting session with Eastampton Seniors, then the reunion meeting and so happy to see Eric Haines. I can't believe I forgot to take pictures! Oy.

It took an hour and five minutes in really fast turnpike travel and a big tie up at Exit 9 and Rt. 18 to get there....and then two hours to get home because of missed turns and wandering paths.

Oh, and just for full disclosure, we didn't get to see the movie either, because we were running late and there was a giant line and no other movies were any closer than a 45 minute away start time.

Tomorrow is Sugarfootin' Sunday at Prospectors. Yay!

Another year perhaps....

Sadly, this year's First Day of School Trip to Seaside fizzled...but the thought still counts.

They started school before Labor Day and Tom caught a cold somehow and wasn't feeling well enough to make the trip. I almost went alone, but decided against it at the last minute. What fun without Tom could there be, after all?

Happy birthday to Margie Ferrare!

The new NJEA sites version of the BCEA website appeared today. I hope it works out okay for them.
Meanwhile, I have my new DEAR Friends blog among other ongoing activities to keep me busy.

I am totally psyched to see Eric Haines on Friday!

A Blog for my Delran Retired friends group (DEAR)

I started a blog for the DEAR friends lunch group. 
It's deardelran.blogspot.com 

I wish there was someway I could notify them when there's a new post.  I guess I could email them, but I think that defeats the purpose. They'll just have to look at it on their own if they are interested (or remember). :-(

Heading to Piscataway

Wow, I sure was talkative last time I posted!

Now it is September. The new BCEA website isn't up yet. Corry is still in the hospital, but doing ok according to Alex who is in MA for a wedding this week-end. Sharon is staying at her apt.

It is now Labor Day weekend and I am looking forward to the "would have been the first day of school if they didn't start before Labor Day trip to Seaside". I am also looking forward to seeing Eric at the reunion meeting in Piscataway next Friday.

We have been to many movies and I am in a library book reading frenzy. :-)

So far with HR Block I have taken the Ethics class and am halfway through Intermediate  Rental. Fun to be back in learning mode!

Oh and I signed up for a free painting class at the library on Dina's birthday in October.

Tom is debating joining a bowlingleague for the upcoming season.

Sue sent a  photo Jennifer took of them when they took Jodie out for her 90th (!!) birthday. She looks great!

Happy 90th birthday, Jodie!
