A Bouquet of Talent Linky Party Time #48

Welcome to another week of party fun!  So happy to have you join us this week.  I want to thank you all once again for support and patience during the difficult past few months.  Thanks so much for hanging in there with me.

I am thrilled to report that last week we received the fantastic report that my mother is cancer free!  After 2 extremely rough surgeries, she is on the mend and doing so much better.  She is not a 100% yet, but making progress.  My dad also has Parkinson's disease,  and all of this was so hard on him.  I think I was just so overwhelmed that it was hard to concentrate on anything!  I am so happy to be getting back into my blogging routine.  

I cannot believe that summer is over for me!  I started back to school this week, and my students start Monday.  I just wish the summer heat here in the south would take a hike along with my vacation!!  It is miserable with no rain in sight, either.  My car read 109 degrees yesterday when I left school!!  

One of my favorite post of the week is Pick of the Bunch Fabulous Features, and I was so happy to get that posted again this week.  If you missed those features you can see it here.  I also decided to stick with the top 5 most viewed posts, because I love to show off your talent.

    Wonderful news about your mother Kathy! I wish her a speedy recovery. It has been very hot here in Jamaica but at last we have been getting some well needed rain in our area. The funny thing is that the minute we purchased a truckload of water for our tanks that is when the rain started!:) Take care and have a great week.
