Hurry, hurry!

Make haste, friends ...

Kimber is fantastic! She's hopping around like nothing ever happened, crazy child that she is. Such a trooper.

Teaching is still going well. Things have been a little wonky with the weather (cancellations and whatnot), but we're rolling with it. No point stressing about it.

I can't believe it is snowing again! I love it.. Wonder if school will be delayed in the morning ...

I've been bombarded with cookies this week - homemade, Girl Scout, "so on and so force" (as Norbert says). Delish, but there has to be an end to the madness.

And my time is up! The couch, my boy, and DVR beckon. More later.

Poor Pump'

My little fuzzy baby was spayed today and is having to stay overnight at the vet's office.

Separation anxiety ... :(

Yes, I realize she is a dog. And, no, I do not care that I am completely ridiculous about her.

Salute your doppelgänger!

Say hi to mine!

Nerd alert, nerd alert!

Well, I've already turned teacher-nerd. I see (or read) something neat on tv, or in a store, or on the Internet, and immediately think of how I can utilize it in one of my lessons.

I actually enjoy unit planning. Someone needs to slap me ...

(Today, Confucius say, "Only the wisest and stupidest of men never change." Hrmmmm.)

So true.

The quote of the day will change tomorrow, so I just wanted to re-iterate ...

"When I give, I give myself." - Walt Whitman

Speechless.

This is absolutely beautiful. This song has been one of my favorites for a very long time now - Jeff Buckley's always having been my #1 version. This one, however, is trying to claim that spot more and more each time I listen to it.



I encourage everyone to do a iTunes search for "Hope for Haiti Now" and buy as much as you desire. All proceeds go to the cause.

Quick update.

The first couple of days meeting the students have gone very well. I am excited about the entire experience ... and I'm also much more tired than I ever imagined I would be ... already! Who knew?!
