I'm just a country girl from down south, with a love for God, books, dreaming, and being creative. I have a fondness for all things 80s, an eclectic taste in music and a passion for dogs, photography and writing. I like to spend time surfing the web, reading and oddly enough, cutting the grass. I hope you will find something interesting, wacky or creative enough to make you want to sit and visit for a while. Nablopomo

13 random thoughts about this week!

I couldn't think of anything else!

  1. I have meeting for the next two days.....yea!...out of the classroom!
  2. I love the smiles that I got from my students on the first day after Thanksgiving break! 
  3. I bought an iDOG....and it's just adorable!
  4. I like the Christmas song on the JCPenney commercial.
  5. I haven't done any Christmas shopping!  urgh!!!!  This is not a good thing.
  6. I feel asleep last night at 6.....at first it was great, but then I started tossing and turning at 2 this morning!
  7. My favorite decorations are snowmen, so I have them in my classroom and at home!  My dog barks at the ones that sing.
  8. The milk chocolate covered nutter butter cookies are NOT as good as the original.
  9. COLD....I am ready for colder weather.  It was 75 degrees today....that is not the weather you want for the winter holidays.  A cold front is coming....should get some colder weather!
  10. Since it's getting cold, I can wrap up in my favorite blanket this weekend!
  11. I always want to get a haircut about this time of year.....I don't know why!
  12. I got an angry note from a parent today complaining about an office referral (truly his fault)......why did I only hear from her when it's something she doesn't like.   Never have gotten a thank you for the free tutoring, phone calls or chances to redo work!  Hummm!
  13. I have not idea what to get my students for Christmas......affordable is the key!

We got our first sleet here last night. It hardly ever snows here, but we get lots and lots of ice. I think the temp got down into the 20s last night. Right now it's hovering around 30. I'm just glad the wind isn't howling like it was last night. It actually made my house creak. My house is only 5 years old.

Thanks for stopping by. I just read your post about teaching; yeah, right. We get part of the year off to plan for the rest of the year, take graduate courses and figure out what to do right the next year.

This has been the hardest year I have ever had. My principal has decided to break up what we are calling the "thug" factor in my room and place two of the worst offenders in other classrooms. All I have to do is buy my teammates new cars. :) She realizes that no one is accomplishing because of the discipline issues. My girls are also crazy, but I think with two of the worst offenders gone, I might be able to break the worst of the girls' bad behavior.

Good luck to you. I'll keep coming back to check on you. You do the same.

Awww ... this post made me feel all warm inside. Don't know why, really, but felt your heart all through it. And I have to say that I truly LOVE the layout. Just a nice visit all around!

Thanks for stopping by my "Horrifying" 13! :)

Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment! I love getting to know people and I think the TT and Friday's Feasts are fun! It's cool that you are adopted too! I love my children and would recommend adoption to anyone considering it! God has blessed us with a wonderful, caring family! I am going to go now and read about you! Have a great weekend!

We've been having pretty mild weather too, we may be in the same region :) I am enjoying it though.

Thanks for dropping by for TT.
