Peace and quiet

I am findinf the last few weeks to be a wonderful time of some piece and quiet. The grandkids next door have started to school and seem to be liking it really well even our Brycen,1st grader, to whom school is a necessary evil. When I ask him how his day went at school his answer is almost always,Grandma, I'd rather not talk about it." To which I answer," WHy did you get into trouble?" "No. I just don't want to talk about it!" So far no notes from the teacher. Our Brianna, 4th grader, loves school and everything about it. Always has and is an "A' student. Big brother Devin is a Freshman this year and has no complaints. He is taking Art this year and is very happy about it. Their parents continue to have to be at work at 6:00 A.M. thirty miles away which leaves me to have to get the kids up, dressed, fed and off to school by 7:30. But then I have the whole day to clean,cook,craft,ect. Our grandaughter Amber,husband David and baby Emily that had been living with us have moved so he can attend technical college. So for the first time in our married life we are Free of kids. I do miss them but it is so nice and the kids next door still keep me pretty busy. We spent last week-end converting Amber and David's bedroom into a guest bedroom. The first ever for us. I am missing our sweet baby Emily but it is nice not to hear a knock on my bedroom door at 3:00A.M. because they can't get baby back to sleep.
We are getting some much needed rain. Even though we still have some 90* weather, fall is definately on the way. I can feel it in my bones. I have many things planned for Autem projects. We will see how many I get completed. Not much else for now.
