That's right I don't want to be any different than any other Grandmother in the world...Today all 3 of my gkids started school. OMG, i have reached that point I get to see them all in school and I am so blessed. Kharley 5th grade, Kentlee Kindergarten, and Kyle Pre-K and Head Start.
Kharley's day was much like the last few, nothing extremely exciting, just the pure pleasure of knowing Collin Funcheon was NOT in her class this year. She was so glad! She loves her homeroom teacher and Mrs. B seems to care for her a lot too.
Kentlee told his mom it was going to be a Rock and Roll day! Fell right into the routine like a pro.
So this is Kyle's first day to be seperated from Kentlee for all day. Janie was a little worried about it but Kyle made it just fine.
Janie had been explaining the ropes to Kentlee about Kyle and the bus ride, that he needed to make sure Kyle was on that bus everyday and not the let the driver leave if Kyle was not with him, Kentlee knew the plan and was preparing for the worst.
Well the worst almost happened the first day of school. Seems like the Head Start school did not get the message to PreK that Kyle would be coming over at lunch. So just because I am nosy and wanted to see the boyz in action I went over and PreK could not find Kyle. My heart sank. The lady in the office called Head Start and sure enough he was still over there. One of the aides brought him over and it was all cool after that. But I just got to thinking about Kentlee more than Kyle, what would he of done if he got on that bus and Kyle wasn't there? Not sure exactly how the conversation would have gone but it would of been worth hearing.
They may fight like brothers but Janie has always told them no matter you take up for each other. I can just see Kentlee getting in that bus drivers face over Kyle, had he not been on that bus. Makes me laugh thinking about the woulda shoulda coulda scenerio. Happy first day of School 2011 to my gkids!!
Well Kent has been on 12 hr days and today he got home early to hear the school stories and Jack was here waiting on him to fix fence, fix a tractor tire, and feed. I will make no comment about this at this time. Other than supper is cold.
Had a wonderful practice this weekend at Deb's house for the homecoming routine the Rainettes will be performing. It is going to be a blast. If you get a chance come to the game on Sept 23 and watch a bunch of old women having the time of there youth!! you need to join us too.
Lots of seniors experienced the first of the last today. My prayer is they all make it to graduation safe and sound. Keeping them and the families in my heart and prayers.
Love to all and to all a good nite. Nen xoxo

Hot August Nights/Days/Hours/Minuets
Another hot one, the sconce of rain we got just seemed to make it hotter. So what else to write about: it will get cooler when it gets cooler.
I went to a funeral today. It was the first person that hired me right out of high school. Sweet Sweet woman. Very little family showed up. Only one son of her is left and her grandchildren. I didn't know much about her sons and daughter, just that she had 3 children and 1 son and the daughter have been gone for some time and the only son left lived in Florida.
She had many nephews and neices but only 1 showed up. It was just kinda sad that the ones that lived so close to her didn't love her enough to come to her funeral. My sweet friend (an in law to the deceased) read the euology and a beautiful poem and a grandson said a prayer at the grave site. In reality I guess that's enough, but it just made me sad. :(
Kent and I come home to help tackle Janie's yard. She has been purging, as they say, and putting it all outside to be picked up carried off or hope it would blow away, well none of that happened so we got a dumpster. After 2 hours in the afternoon sun the dumpster is full and we were exhausted. It was good the kids were gone this weekend, cause I got a feeling Janie might of slipped in a favorite broken toy or twelve!
WE rested and then went for ice cream, and drove around both lakes. Wow I wonder how they get the boats in the water. It all looks so low. The ramps just end and no water for the boats to go into. Several boats out there, we just couldn't figure out what ramp they used.
The Rainettes will perform at homecoming this year and the practices have been exciting, to say the least. The girls from the 70's are a little old to do the moves of the 80's so the excitment begins. It is challenging to fit in the moves, but I think we have a routine and all we need to do is practice and make appts with the chiropractor!
Well if you hit the wrong button to correct something it just post the blog for you. Just wish I knew what button I pushed.
The tractor is home, I know everyone missed it as much as I did. I guess you can say this is my inheritance from my grandpa. His tractor. Kent has been using it for some time and has been able to fix most of the things that have gone wrong, but 2 things he aint good at. Hydrolics and porche valve (?) something to do with the stirring. Anyway Rog and Gary Lynn to the rescue, they took excellant care of it and brought it back in great shape. I was glad. Right now Kent is shredding dead grass and locust bushes with it.
Okay the funny for last week:
My 3K's have been home all summer. To hot to play outside so coop up in the house all day. Weather gets cooler ( a little ) in the evening and they all go out and make a playhouse in the yard. Scrap everything used to make a total household.
I drive by and Kyle (the youngest you know Not Marbin, but Tile) is playing, he stops me and proceeds to give me the tour. Dis the libbing womb, my baroom, and da kishin. (living room has 2 litttle tike chairs and micro phone cord which represents the phone) (bedroom has a towel on the ground) (kitchen has a step stool with 2 glasses on it) Do you really need any more than that???
Need to ck on Kent and my tractor,
Carla, be sure and Thank Dylon for me and Congrats to you! lots of love
Pam, glad you finished another work week. Tell DCC I love them.
Nettie, thanks for the shirts and tongs your the best.
Good night to all and to all a good night

Little boys stink!
Today was my first day back to work! I love being needed. I worked so hard and was totally exhausted when I got home and took a nap. Kent is on 12 hour shift for a while so I took advantage of the home alone time. I hope I can finish the enrollment packets tomorrow and then have Wed. to get ready for Thur and Fri, that is enrollment days for the new kids!!
The Rainette reunion has been fun fun. We have music and a routine, just gotta practice practice. Looking forward to homecoming this year. Also hoping the Alumni takes off and this is the year that we Rains Alumni finally makes an impact on the community.
Sunday, Kent and I cleaned our bedroom. Sounds strange huh? Dust was so thick on all the furniture you could write a letter to Merry Maids on it. I had a scare, or I was asked if some friends of ours could use the house on Saturday for a wedding, I got in a panic and called in reinforcements. Courtney!!!! to the rescue, she said she could come on Friday, great!!!!!! Then I got a message the wedding had been postpone. Well Bummer! I was so excited X's 2. 1 the first time the house was going to be cleaned all summer and 2 wedding at our house (honor to me that anyone would want to use our house).....then cancel :(
Why have the house cleaned if no one is going to see it right? So I called Courtney back and cancelled her, but that meant our bedroom still was going to have 6 inches of dust in there. So Sunday Kent said he would help. My philosiphy on dusting is if I can't see it then it is clean enough. Kent is probably a foot and a half taller than me and see's all! So he hit the high stuff and I got the low. I think I sleep better in a clean room. I will have to keep that in mind next time I can't sleep. Make Kent dust the top of the wardrobe, so I can sleep better. During the great clean up I found my birth certificate! That would of been handy when I was trying to get that passport. Now I know where it is so in case I have to prove to someone something I have it.
Friday my BFF took me out for my birfday!! woop woop! I was 39 for the 14th time, we had the best time and I didn't want the day to end. We cured all the ills of the world. Half of which we invented, but nevertheless!
I was FB'ing when the kids came in screaming "We're staying which you nite Nen! K? Janie immediatley went to the bathroom and started getting the baths ready. OMG!! Kentlee smelled like a dead mule! Rotten pure stink out of the hot west smell I have ever experienced. Kyle came over and he was just as bad...Then Kharley was walking on one foot and said I am taking my bath first I got pig poo on me.....I screamed at her and said share the shower with Kentlee I think I will puke if he don't give me some relief...Janie starts in Yep Kentlee you need to go first. Kyle be last. So after all the baths were done, Kentlee came running up to me and said smell me now... Ahhhh so much better!
gonna be a fun night, I lay in my bed when they are all here and listen to them do the night talk and prayers and then I say mine.
Thank you Lord for this family, and to all a good nite. xoxoxox Nen
