School started back way to early this year - July 31st. The best thing about it - I don't have to do it again! We had a very rough start when Matty's - one of our co-worker's son's - cancer returned. She learned about it the Friday before school started on Monday. She is going to stay with him at the hospital this time. Then on the 7th school day - Tuesday, August 19th - Kevin had an asthma attack at the very end of the school day and died. The veteran and new teachers that knew Kevin are devastated. He was such a sweet boy. He started coming to the media center during recess in the 2nd grade. He had his own spot. It is hard to believe that he is truly gone.
We continue to be blessed with good health, good friends, and good family. The restful weekends have really helped.

| On August 9th, we met Sue and Steve, Kurt and Anna, Perry and her mom. Perry is celebrating 25 years at her firm. |
 |
| We celebrated Steve's birthday by spending the weekend at the lake. I made shrimp and grits and Gina got this awesome cake. It was very relaxing. |
 |
| Alan and I went to the mountains on the weekend of the 22nd. We spent Friday evening at the winery, sitting outside and listening to music. It was relaxing. I needed it. Saturday night, we met Linda and Jimmy for dinner and entertainment at the Unicoi Lodge. The ladies' group that sang was excellent. |

| We went to Garlic Fest on Saturday. It was hot. We didn't stay long. |
