First Day and Last Monday

Today was the first day of school. I cannot remember ever feeling chilly during the first week of school, let alone the first day. Today was rainy and cold!

I think I'll enjoy the year, but it's too early to tell. My students were pretty quiet until my third hour class. They had some "issues" coming up from lunch. Well have to work on that.

I got a beautiful surprise though. My dear husband sent me flowers! They are a beautiful bouquet of pink roses, tiger lillies and baby glads. He rarely does things like this, so I was in shock! It's so nice to be reminded that you are special!

Today was also "Last Monday" at the Yarn Shoppe. Our Stitch and Bitch meets in the shop the last monday of each month. I enjoy last monday because I get to play with yarn, eat goodies and see my ladies. I have to say that Susan and Brenda crack me the hell up. "I am Susan" "Do the Math" *sigh*

I have my eye on some Manos for a fall bag. I adore the baby Alpaca. I bought the Knitting Stitches Calendar to look for a pattern to use my Wool in the Woods Helix for a shawl. Last Mondays can be dangerous!
