More Summer Pics 2011
Finally settling into a routine for the 11-12 school year.....shewww...it's a job, but it's so much fun! Spencer is lovin' school, doing great and picking up new words and sounds. He is working on the Ipod for a speech device and he loves it. Speech teacher says he's doing great!! Ms. Sallie, his teacher sends great notes home and is so proud of the progress he's made.
During the summer, Spencer attended Camp Burnt Gin for his 3rd time and had a great time, he did summer school and had a birthday party in his class, had his 10 year annual pool party, went camping in WV, rode 4-wheelers, did the famous WV fire outside almost every night and the Spencer Family 2011 reunion.....we love going to WV, it's so us!!!
Hope you enjoy the summer pics, hopefully I'll have some fall ones soon.....

Summer 2011
Well here we ago, embarking on another HOT summer vacation. Spencer had new tubes in his ears, again, last Monday and seems to be doing ok. His hearing is still good with some conductive loss because of the tubes. The ENT cut his hair for us while his was under, thank you Dr. Brown and they also did a EKG to get a updated read, which turned out GREAT. Thank you GOD for your blessings! Mommaw and Poppaw were down last week to stay with Spencer while I finished out my last week of school WHAT A YEAR! Busy as usual with paperwork and of course all the sickness with Spencer since January. We have started off hot here in SC...yesterday the official temp was 98, but my car said 102 at one point! My iron is low again, so not sure what we'll do about that, but seeing my gyn to discuss options to take care of it. Mike is still at Lockheed working in the heat, but with the loss of a BIG CONTRACT, everyone is on pins and needles. So, that's it in a nutshell....Next Wed Spencer leaves for Camp Burnt Gin, just hope it cools somewhat so he can enjoy it...he hates the heat. I plan on cleaning and doing some painting while he is gone and MAYBE a couple nights at the beach if we can arrange it! When he comes back he begins the summer camp at his school, which he loves and then to WV for a long awaited vacation in the mountains....complete with 4 wheeling up at the camp with Dad, Lewisburg with Mom, camping with the in-laws and finishing off the week with family reunions....so excited and hopefully will have lots of pics to post!!! As for all of you....HAPPY HOT SUMMER....enjoy because before you know it it'll be Christmas 2011?????

TGIF
Not sure if you can see this imagine, but for me....it says it all for today! This is Spencer's t-shirt I put on him today, in reality I should have wore it!! He had a great morning and as far as I know he's having a great day at school. Me, however, is another story. It's funny how I can deal so much better with my special needs kids in my classroom than I can my adults. By the way, there are 4 adults in my classroom, and yes I do have to mirco-manage them!!! What's up with that, why are adults harder to get to follow rules and directions than kids. Ummmmm....anyway, this shirt "It's all fun & games until the flying monkeys attack" pretty much sums up today for me!! Guess I'll be the flying monkeys!!!! Watch out!!!

Snow?
One thing I've learned living in SC is that when a storm is predicted to hit here, well, it may or may not hit and it may be ice, sleet, frozen rain or snow or all of those. I get my hopes so high when they call for snow because I do miss the snows of West Virginia, however, I don't miss their frequency to the mountains.
We were going to get hit BIG according to the weather people....well, we didn't but a few minutes north of us did get it pretty big, 3-5 inches...we got all of the above mentioned...approximately 1 inch on our deck. But it's enough to freeze again and make it absolutely horrible out there tonight. We needed some things and I thought for sure it'd clear, but it didn't. So my wonderful hubby ventured out to the local BiLo grocer and was stopped 2 times by police officers telling him he needed to get home. That happens here, you know it's bad. We aren't equipped to deal with this type of weather. They don't have salt for the roads and very few plows. They usually keep the main roads, mostly interstates, cleared. Of course we wouldn't have these things, since snow/ice/, etc. only happens 1-2 times a year. In the pic if you look closely, you see the corner of our table on the deck and the chair.....this is it for what we received.
So in summary, we're in, have been in since yesterday evening. Spencer's getting alittle cabin fever, the dog is lovin' she gets to stay in all the time and the cat is like whatever! The fish are at the bottom of the pond keeping warm and Mike and I are doing whatever. I love the laziness, but then by tomorrow, I'll be ready to do something worthwhile! Keep safe, enjoy the....well whatever you got from this storm and eat some good comfort food!!!

CHANGE
REST IN PEACE
GLENN V. SPENCER
APRIL 21, 1917 - JANUARY 15, 2010
At Christmas when we were home Uncle Glenn was put in the hospital Dec. 24, 2009 with pneumonia. I told my Dad I didn't like the changes that were happening in my life....Uncle Glenn failing, Grandma in a nursing home, he and Mom getting older and unable to do what they used to. He told me that I "milz well get used to it, 'cause changes are going to happen whether we like them or not." Well, Friday a week ago he called my cell phone @ 8:10am and I was doing hall duty. When I seen it was their number, my heart dropped. My parents never call that early unless something is wrong. It was...Uncle Glenn had passed at approximately 6:30am that morning from what appeared to be a stroke. My Dad was crying, I started crying because it hurt me so bad that I was there to hug him and let him know how much he means to me and that I hurt for him and I hurt for myself and I hurt for Aunt Dot, Danny, Tim, Doug and all the family!!! It was a very short trip in, seen quite a few family members I haven't seen in awhile. A GREAT SERVICE for a GREAT MAN.....Thank you Uncle Glenn for the memories....of sitting on your lap when I was a baby, of allowing me to ask tons of questions when I was a kid and as a teenager, thank you for sharing your love of the woods, steam engines, stories, music, musical instructments and tons of other things. We will all miss you, but the memories you have left us with will forever by with us and we will share them with our kids. One of my best memories ever is every time you seen Spencer, you would lay your hands upon his head and say a prayer!! I always knew Spencer would be fine in everything because he had the blessing of Uncle Glenn! I will cherish the time you spent with Spencer and one day I hope when I show him his Uncle Glenn he will remember those hands upon his head, praying for him. I love you and will miss you always!!
