Day 217, Saturday, August 4, 2012

Jim and I went to the Pekin Daily Times open house.  He worked as the proof reader around 1974 or 1975.  He is standing where his desk was.  It was interesting to see how the paper had changed.  The offices are moving to another building and this one is going to become a parking lot!

Day 216, Friday, August 3, 2012

We stopped at Petsmart tonight and bought Coco a new collar.  I hope he doesn't chew on this one!

Day 215, Thursday, August 3, 2012

This is Coco's puppy collar.  He has been chewing on it.  His head is so big, it leaves it loose around his neck and he can slide his bottom jaw under it and chews it up!

Day 214, Wednesday, August 1, 2012

I got my prints today!  I am doing my Project 366 this year in Photo Shop Elements.  I finally figured out how to use the Becky Higgins Project Life templates.  It was one of my goals for summer vacation!

Day 213, Tuesday, July 31, 2012

I made pasta tonight for dinner.  I couldn't resist buying "fusilli" shaped noodles at Krogers.  Jim's favorite shaped noodle since the Seinfeld episode where George's dad falls on "Fusilli Jerry"!

Day 212, Monday, July 30,2012

Today was my first day back to work after having 7 weeks off.  This is the longest summer vacation I have ever had in the 24 years that I have worked at school.  We added on to our playground equipment before we left for summer, but the company had to come back to install the roof, so I wanted to wait until it was complete to photo it.

Day 211, Sunday, July 29, 2012

We bought bicyles!  After our vacation to Mackinac Island, we wanted to try riding bikes at home.  We got mine at Wal-Mart in Peoria and Jim's at Wal-Mart in East Peoria.  I was trying to get a picture of my list of "Bike Wants".  Wide tires, cruiser handle bars, 7 speeds, big seat, fenders, basket, package rack and purple.  Well, I got everything, except it is blue and not purple!
