Welcome, I’m Libby
Thank you for visiting my blog. I live in Plano, Texas where my husband and I are very involved in being happy senior adults. You will find that my blog reflects our lives and activities as well as the goings-on of our two grown children and ten grandchildren. There may even be something the Lord leads me to compose and share. Needless to say, we stay busy and sharing our busyness with you makes me happy. I do hope you will stop by and share a cup of tea with me often.

Don't save plastic bags and tin foil . . .made me laugh out loud! True! So true!! I do "recycle" my target/walmart plastic bags by using them when I scoop the cat's litter box but I definitely don't save baggies, etc.!
ReplyDeleteLove your school pictures...such a cutie! Like Lisa above to do save most of my Walmart and Kroger bags for when I take the dog for a walk and I need to clean up after her. We had to wear dresses to until 7th grade they started letting us wear pant suits and then by my senior year we could wear and kind of pants/jeans.
ReplyDeleteDon't save plastic bags lol. Your school pictures are cute! It sounds like your granddaughter is in a wonderful place for school. My oldest grandson is doing a 5 day a week Pre-k program at the church this year, although technically he is eligible for kinder. He would only make the cutoff by two weeks so would always be the youngest in the class. Another year will be for the best I think. My daughter is researching Christian schools, but also considering homeschooling at least for K. They will move somewhere for just that one year so that might be a good way to see if that's something that is right for them. You can't assume anything in terms of education anymore. Parents really have to do their homework too.
ReplyDeleteLibby, love your photos of 1st grade and twelfth grade. So cute! And yes dresses to school for all my K-12th grade days. So good that your granddaughter can go to a school that teaches Biblical world view. What nonsense is being taught in many schools. Our kids have had to turn to homeschooling for now. Hope the rest of your week goes well including your meeting!
ReplyDeleteI also laughed at your "don't recycle plastic bags and foil". Here in the UK we don't get as many bags these days - you have to pay for them and we can only recycle clean tin foil. If it's clean I'd be recycling it to use again!
ReplyDeleteI hope she has a great year! Yes, the new clothes and shoes were always fun. Also, all the way through High School girls had to wear skirts! They started the pants thing after I graduated. Good point, we have all of our things in order too. The food storage is scary and definitely one to worry about. All part of controlling us. Love your photos. So cute!
ReplyDeleteWow! that Ava Grace will be graduating before we turn around. Yes, good for you for not saving plastic bags and tin foil and hopefully not plastic butter tubs either. :o)) We have a few more things to do for the kids in the event of our death but we have our crypts and all the financial stuff in order. I would like to go to funeral home and finish that up but T's not ready quite yet. Have a great weekend!
