The Final Stretch

December 8th marks the end of the of my final semester in Albany. I'll be getting my masters degree in library science, and it was just last week that I bought a new pair of glasses and the bun is mastered. All are welcomed to a graduation ceremony in December... although I don't know how enticing Northern New York can be in December. As school is coming to a close, I am getting ready for the next step... finding a job! So, if anyone hears about any libraries that have an opening... let me know.

In the meantime this semester I am looking forward to a little trip to Ohio in October. I'll be visiting Claire and we'll be going to a Coldplay concert together. I know I am looking forward to it!

In the more near future, I'll be going to "An Evening with David Sedaris." I have been looking forward to this since the beginning of this summer. He is by far one of my favorite authors, an absolute riot. Here is a little preview of what I am in store for...

Dental Hygeine

I've never known a Sauvageau who neglected their dental hygiene.

Each Sauvageau has a set of perfect teeth.

So, remember everyone, brush at least twice a day!

I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more Blogging!!

Savvy Joes,

If you've noticed, I have added a couple links at the top left of the page.  These are links to Maureen and Claire's blog, as well as my own.  If you would like to join the party, start you own blog and we can add it to the list.  If you want to know how to start a blog, call me at 708.275.6591 or email at colynbsf@gmail.com.  Or, even better call Joe.  Rock on!

"This is my cat Delilah" -- Magdalene Nichols

Now that school has started for Maureen, Claire, Paul, John, Veronica and Magdalene it is time to put this past summer behind us. Though it was full of some broken bones up here in Malone, we had some great times. Theresa started us off by coming up and helping care for an old man; Cindy came with Andrea and Anna and Luis, too; Maureen came up unexpectedly from Albany many times; and a lot of other things, too.

And, of course, Meacham Lake. Our two intrepid explorers...

Meacham Lake has been our favorite spot for a very, very long time. Longer than the time that Maureen and Claire were as little as Veronica and Magdalene

Then, there are those things that you just don't want to think about happening... But they will.

Kathleen has always had a penchant for taking the kids out and letting them drive. Her Aunt Anita allowed Kathleen the same favor when she was but a little girl. Now she returns the favor. I am not sure that we are ready for the insurance rates, however.

I am not quite ready to unleash this dynamic duo onto the roadways. But they sure did have fun.

Then, in our house there are the ever present Webkinz. These cute and cuddly animals have become standards in our house. Magdalene has more than a passing acquaintance with each and every one...
