New School Hours

It has been decided that kids need more sleep and should wake up after 8:00.

Huh? Here in Amherst, the school day starts 5 minutes earlier (7:25) and lasts 20 minutes longer in the afternoon (2:19). Mama likes the extra couple minutes!

Also heard students have the option to go for 1/2 days, in other schools (and finish their other classes online). That probably will never fly in this town either. Bringing them into the Internet Age was a task, in itself... required so much remapping of rooms, funds and wiring (my daughter's first day of 3rd grade, the computer room caught on fire because of electrical overload!!! LOL!) To have Amherst change THAT MUCH would be incredible!

Sitting In The Drive Thru Line

Looking across the parking lot, I couldn't help noticing how much it is starting to look like fall, around New Hampshire.

LOVE New England in the Fall.

Arthur T Demoulas Is Back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have our Market Baskets! Solidarity worked!!! The governors from Massachusetts and New Hampshire played a heavy role in resolving the situation, because it had such an impact on the local economies; surrounding stores were suffering and local vendors and suppliers lost tons of work. I wonder if Economic and Sociology courses will study this, in the future?

I absolutely LOVED MB's brand new store and now I am able to shop there again. A year or more ago, the Demoulas family closed two stores on 101A and opened up a brand new, huge, gorgeous one, right next to one of the old locations. What a FaNtAsTic store! It was such a crush when I thought it wasn't going to open again.

On a sadder note, I was supposed to be going to the USTA Open, today. I LOVE MY PEEPS, they are going to FaceTime me during one of the good matches, so that I can still "be there"!!! LOL!

Been So Busy

Finally had some time to work on this sweater!

Been many many weeks, poor project has been dragged to Districts, the Cape, Massachusetts and to the beach! Just the sleeves to go and it's ready for the cold weather to come. :D

New Hampshire's Heavy Heart

Jim Foley will be greatly missed. For more than two years, he's been a topic of interest for the local news, especially since this was his second kidnapping. His recent death has effected NH, so much.

Next to lose his life, Steven Sotloff, is another New Hampshire native. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers...
