Today has been a bit exciting so far. Someone smelled gas and we had to evacuate. However, most of us thought it was just a drill. We were only outside for a few minutes and the temperature outside was as warm as it was inside-still haven't got those heat settings right. I am totally disgusted with our kitchen, it is so dirty, I don't want anyone to see it. I have started cleaning it by cleaning part of the stove. Over the next week or so I hope to get it all clean, including cupboards and the refrigerator.

A couple of schools have been put on lockdown recently, one because a student had a loaded gun and was planning on murdering 3 other students. Scary stuff that kids can get those guns and then plan on killing someone with them. I don't like to think about it, but I know that we have students here that have weapons on them and we just don't know it.

Back to better thoughts, it is a glorious fall day with lots of sunshine and blue skies with a touch of autumn breezes. Too bad I won't have time to enjoy it today. I have an appointment and then I have to go shopping. I only own three pairs of work pants and three shirts to use. I have been swapping them around, but now it is time to get something else, even if I don't really like the other choices out there.
