Oh my gosh friends - you caught me running late - seems these days it's my normal. Maybe I'll be catching up soon though. Grandson started middle school alright and I thank you for your prayers - he loved it. Even the uniform was okay. Phew.
He did start it with stitches. Sunday night - right before we were to leave for MYF - he went to grandpa's workbench - with grandpa down there. He wanted to make something to take with him. Well when grandpa wasn't looking he took one of grandpa's knives. Now picture this grandpa was putting tabs on his new Bible for school and all of a sudden blood flew over his head all over him and the Bible - like it was raining blood. Guess grandson took and flew his hand back for some reason.
Grandpa was shocked to say the least. Turned around and grandson was running upstairs to the bathroom. Daughter and I were upstairs and her hub yelling to come down. Never a good sign.
Well we tried to close it up for about an hour - but every time he lowered it - it started bleeding again. Off to the emergency room for stitches. He started school yesterday with stitches. He was pretty brave though - but a hard way to start middle school. lol
We had open house last Thursday night. Friday we went and decorated his lockers (he got two) with UGA Bulldog items. His mom - his good mom - color coded all his books and notebook and schedule. On Saturday they had a swim party get together for six graders and he got to meet all his classmates!!
Sunday morning he got captured in Sunday school by the youth group and got taken to McDonald's for breakfast. Then they silly tied them - all a good initiation into youth group for next Sunday.
Then there was the hospital visit - so you see - I tell you all this to let you know I am not goofing around when I say I was busy. lol
Tomorrow I'll give you some more deTAILS about my grandson's first day. Again thanks for your prayers.
That is my tale for the day. And since I love to goof around here is my tail for the day. Isn't it cute?
So this is my tale on Tuesday's tail, about a tail.
THOUGHT OF THE DAY:

So glad that your grandson is enjoying school. Sorry to hear of his mishap but glad to hear that all it took were a few stitches to get it resolved. Like I said before, take your time getting back into the routine of the school year ... we'll be here waiting for you. ;-)
Oh, my goodness. I hope that wasn't his writing hand. (Sorry, I still think like a teacher.) It sounds like he's had a good start to the school year/church year. That's great.
Yep...you've been busy all right.
You are indeed a busy gal! I'm glad to hear that Andy likes his new school, but sorry he started it off with stitches in his hand! Hope everything continues to be good with his school and that you get to slow down and relax! Take care.
You are a very busy lady. I am glad your grandson is OK, sorry he had to start school with stitches.
Wow girl, things have been hoppin over there. So glad GS loved his new school. Sorry about the stitches but boys...what can you say! Take a deep breath and know that things will calm down...at least I hope so! Miss you. Linda
Whew! So glad he got the stitches and is on the mend now- what a sight that must have been!
Sorry about the stitches but I am so happy to hear he liked his first day! Yeah!
I'm glad GS is OK, and that he enjoyed his first day of school. We still have a few weeks left yet before we go back. Summer vacation went by way too fast!
Sorry about the stitches and glad your grandson is okay - but wow! all the rest of the story. What a great start to new school experience.
Love the dog in the tub!
Love the tale of the tail there, tail!!!
Terrible moment with the cut I am sure. BUT the stitches for a boy? After the hurt & doctors, That is a bragging point!!! Good to have a talking point at a new school! HA!
Hope all continues well!!!
Love from NH
That's great that the school year is off to a good start. The first of school is always a busy time.
I hope the cut heals quickly.
Except for the stitches it sounds like a great start to your grandson's school year. I'm babysitting for one of my grandson's today, a two year old. Mom and dad are teachers and had to get ready for the new school year. I'll have the little 2 month old one later this afternoon too. Should be fun. Hope your Tuesday is terrific!
yikes on the cut!
Hope he heals quickly. Love the pugs.
Poor thing, what a way to start school with stitches. Glad he met his classmates and has his notebooks and such organized. praying he'll will heal as soon as possible. take care.
I played that song on Saturday night and it when down very well.
Glad school went well, even with the stitches. Ouch!
Life is always exciting with kids around! I hope he has a good start to school! I'm thinking about all of my grandkids this week, too! Sweet hugs!
Nothing like getting the bad stuff out of the way, right? I hope his first week sets the tone for a wonderful year at his new school. Later this mishap will become a great story to tell. Right now, I'm just glad he is ok and the rest of you survived.
oh I was very concerned about all that blood. stitches and school are a difficult mix. glad things are ok and moving forward. busy is as busy does. love to you in all of your busy-ness.
Not a great way to start school, but it sounds like he took it in stride.
Is he beginning MYF? I was a youth counselow for many years; loved it!!
Ouch on the stitches, but thrilled to hear he's off to a good school start!
Love that quote at the end about the open door! So glad and relieved that your grandson enjoyed his first day at middle school. That must have made you happy. Let's hope that it continues and that he settles in well. You've certainly been very busy lately!
Sandie,
Never a dull moment around your house.
At least your grandson will have a conversation starter with his stitches. LOL
