Day 23

Gloria from Crochet Galore passed this Sunshine Award my way today.

And let me tell you, we need it around here. This is what our weather looks like today.

Dust, dust and more dust. The kind that just hangs in the air.

I took these pictures while at school today.

It's just awful! But the good news is, tomorrow we leave for Sri Lanka. A full day of school and work and then we head to the airport. And yes, I still have packing to do, but for now I really need to go to bed. This laptop sounds like a lawnmower at the moment and I'm ready to throw it against the wall.

Thanks Glor for the sunshine award! Since this will be my last post until we return from our trip, I wish you all a bit of sunshine in your corner of the world. Peace & blessings, Tammy

    Your dust does not look very nice at all. Would you believe me if I told you that we had snow here today?? Yes, it lasted for 10 minutes, just long enough for me to get a picture. HA! I was hoping for enough to make a few snowballs to throw at all four of my boys! HA!
    Good luck getting everything packed and ready tonight. I hope Zack is feeling better. Vacations would not be a vacation if someone was not sick...
    If I don't get a chance to tell you before then, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish you a year filled with everything that makes you happy. As for Friday, I hope that it is as special as you are. I love you like a sister and miss you a ton!!!
    Take lots of pictures!

    Love ya,
    Renee

    Wow that looks terribly dusty and gritty. That's great that you'll be leaving the dust bowl. Have a great time away!

    I can only imagine how oppressive and gloomy it must be with all that dust. Yuck!

    Have a wonderful and relaxing time in Sri Lanka, though. Take lots of pics! :-)
