"What I wrote today".  There is more, but I choose not to share the whole journal entry.  It was a long day today, but we were blessed with beautiful weather and good company.  I'm glad we were able to go and celebrate Grandma's life.

"On the Table"...Well my first thought was dinner should be on the table. :)  More often than not what is on my table shows the happenings of the day, then it all gets cleared off for dinner.  Today we have a few gifts that were purchased at target and need to be wrapped for distribution next week. Hannah's keys etc. from after school and also her warm clothes pile ready to go to the Homecoming game tonight. My bill folder is there, my to-do-today list, an article I plan to read, and sloppy joe buns waiting for dinner to happen. Some days there is more stuff and some less, but the table is the hub of activity at our house.

"Close up" is the photo topic today.  This is a little spider and web created by one of my children and a tiny shrinky-dink jack-o-lantern recently made by Katie.  They are sitting at the base of my Halloween tree this year. :)

Interesting that the photo topic for today is "emotion".  My Grandma Thompson passed away early this morning. Sad news for all of us, yet happy for her.  She is with Grandpa now.  The photo is of Grandma and Oliver, she was so excited to be able to see her great, great grandson.  I love you Grandma, I've learned a lot from you, I'll miss you.
