I canNOT believe it is November already!! Didn't 2010 just start? Weren't we all just debating on what to even call this year? twenty-ten? two thousand-ten? 2K10....
and now in just a mere 54 days the year will be over! Good gravy...if time flies when you're having fun, I must be having a laugh-riot!

Anyways...on to what's been keeping me so busy this week!

HALLOWEEN, but not really.

Our town celebrated last night, with trick-or-treating and Trunk-or-treats at the local churches. WE, however, opted to leave town to avoid the madness. (our neighborhood sees well over 300 kids if you stay at home....and by "kids", I mean anyone from birth age up to 18 or higher. It's really aggravating how many teens and young adults expect you to give them candy. There is also usually vandalism in our neighborhood if you have decorations out. Some of the less than savory population around here can ruin it quick for the others.) So.... Dinner at the Outback, and bribing Molly with a big bag of candy not to make me take her trick-or-treating.

NEW MONTH--NEW CALENDAR

My, my, what a busy month I've got ahead of me. And all those M-F things happen AFTER school hours!
And I've already had to add two more things since snapping this picture!

ELECTION DAY (at least in our state)
My class learned about the voting process. We didn't vote for people, tho. Just for "issues". (you may have to enlarge the picture to see what "issues" were important to us!)

In local news, our friend was re-elected as a US Congressman.
The little brother of some friends from college was elected our new Lt. Governor. (Met him...he's a nice guy.) I'm anxious to see what he does.

Left my lunch bag sitting on the counter this morning.

BOOK STUDY DAY

With some stimulus money given to our district, our school implemented a Book Study program for the teachers. Last year we covered 3 professional texts throughout the year, and those that attended every session were given $1000 at the end.
This year, they are offering the same program.
Our first book (for a one day study, since it was a short book) was FISH. A great read if you feel like you are stuck in a rut at work, or even in life.
Attitude is everything!

END OF CHEERLEADING DAY

The last game of the season. And we won!
Molly got a haircut to celebrate.

So...there's a peek into my world.
I know....you're jealous! How could you not be!

Seriously...just plodding along, life as we know it. Or at least as *I* know it.
If it slowed down any, I'd collapse! Best to keep moving!
Hope you all have a wonderful week!


I am participating in the 2010 Mommytography 365 Project!
For this year long project I will be posting an image a day.
I am hoping this will...

• help me find new things around me to focus my attention on
• share my world with my friends and family more

Anyone interested in photography can join, no need to be a Mommytographer.

I love those issues! That is great.
What congressman do you know? I wondered if Mark was Philip's little brother--that's cool!

So..it's a new year. And I haven't posted here since..umm..May. I have been thinking of deleting this blog..or at least all the entries in it, and starting over. Maybe a school blog. I see tons of cute ones everyday when I'm perusing pinterest. I could do that. maybe. no...probably not. But I might try. This place did not turn out the way I wanted it to. I have my personal "diary" blogs/journals elsewhere. This one is too public for that anymore. I should make it something fun. I don't want to lose it. Erica made it so cute for me. I don't even know how to do that... or, for that matter, delete the entries I have here. I can't find the "dashboard" button that use to be there. hmmmm.. This may take more time than I thought.

Alphabee Thursday: E is for Expectations

Image
Today is Alphabee-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter E. is for yep...that's right. Expectations Such a big word. Dictionary.com defines it as Something expected. hmmm....kinda vague, so I looked up "EXPECT": 1.to look forward to; regard as likely to happen; anticipate the occurrence or the coming of 2. to look for with reason or justification: There are certain things I just expect in life: * I expect the light to come on when I flip the switch. * I expect the microwave to pop my popcorn perfectly in about 3 minutes. * I expect whatever I'm plugging into the electrical socket to work when I turn it on. * I expect to be given correct change when paying for a purchase. I also have expectations of people in my life. *I expect people to do what they say they will do *I expect my children to do what I ask of them, when I ask it *I expect kindness instead of rudeness in public *I expect honesty from others. *I expect my dog to jump all over me as...

C is for Crayon

Image
Today is Alphabe-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter C...so let's get right down to it. is for ahhh...the simplicity of crayons! An essential tool in my profession, and yet such a vital part of our lives. Crayons have the ability to color our world. They add life to simple drawings, brighten up the darkest of pictures, and create rainbows on rainy days. After completing a writing assignment my students will often ask...."Do we have to draw a picture?" "Of course you do!! And use your crayons!" I will reply. And then the real feelings of their topic show through. Without color, how dull our lives would be. No yellow sunshiny days. No pink cotton candy. No blue skies and green grass. Lollipops would be tasteless and lemonade would be just water. The fashion industry would go bust and movies would not be worth seeing. Crayons add life. They add spirit. And they make me smile. Even tho a wee little piece of one was the bane of my world on M...
