Thank you Lord for the on again off again rain! We were trying to get used to hearing thunder and seeing lightening. My dog Patches was trying to figure out if it was really thunder (also known as should I shake and shiver and pant) or was it a truck. (haha) I told my students last week, I am good with the rain, even if I have to walk through it in my sandals. Sure enough, wet shoes and all I walked in the rain to my car.

I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend and were able to spend time with family and friends. That has become more important to me in the last few years. We will be spending time with each other in Shreveport hanging out with the girls. Gracie is now a member of the Chi Omega Sorority, and we get to meet the group. I am so excited for her and Annalise with school, work, and extracurriculars. I know they are going to do big things!
Have a fabulous week! If you have any information you would like for me to share, please contact me. Until next time…..
