Hi, Crazies. I know I haven&#39;t been posting much lately- lots to do getting DD ready for school on Monday . Been going to lots of meetings - Wayne and I are now band parents with all that entails- meetings , practices, helping out where possible and games and competitions.DD is in the pit this year, which means she is playing one of those huge xylophones , which they call keyboards. She plans to work her way up to the drum line. She wants to play a snare drum.  School starts this Monday and band is a couple of times a week in the evening . Our football games at which the band plays, starts the first Friday of school and we have them almost every week through NOvember. I&#39;m tired already and the season is just beginning. Of course, even though I haven&#39;t been posting, I have been reading and keeping up with all of you. <br />
<br />
   Mary Lou, Please take care of your foot and follow Dr.&#39;s orders to the t so you can be good as new. <br />
   Maria, Please tell Ken we will be thinking of him through his surgery and wish him a speedy and complete recovery. <br />
   Mary, Thanks so much for sharing your gorgeous photos with us. You&#39;ve got to enter them in a contest or like someone said, a book. Your granddaughter is just precious and looks very much like you. <br />

    Cheryl, your hubby and Mary&#39;s make a great team. Both of them an A+ in the romance department. <br />

I hope I haven&#39;t left anyone out. If I have, I apologize. I only had 5 hours sleep- had to be at freshman orientation early this morning. <br />
<br />
Have a great day, Crazies. Once DD starts school on Monday, I&#39;ll be posting a lot more. I miss you all and can&#39;t wait to post again on a more regular basis. <br />
