Telephone call to my parents in NY today: Jake: (enthusiastic) Hello!!! Me: Hi Buddy! Jake: Hi Say-wah! Me: What are you doing? Jake: Oh…. just practicing my Signature Moves. He’s not quite right. In other news… I’m about to embark on the the first full week of students in 2005. I’m just completely unmotivated this […]

Round 2
Kids are back today. I don’t feel ready. I’m sure it will be alright. If not, I’ll just get to the weekend and then spend it (unhappily) fixing said unpreparedness. Nothing else new to report. We take on Starmount at home tonight. Should be a fun time. Well, I’d really love to stay and share […]
Sad Sunday
Well, it’s all over. The vacation that I counted down for since mid-November. Gone. In a flash. We start back tomorrow. Teachers only, until Thursday, when the kids roll in. It’s a whole new group of them, so there’s the whole “setting the tone” thing, that we have to do all over. The plus side […]

We are now just awaiting family to arrive to have our Christmas Eve celebration and our Christmas Morning Gift Unwrapping Extravaganza (FREE FOR ALL). There’s no waiting turns or patient watching while […]
To NY Again
We are heading back to NY tonight (after our game against Mt. Tabor). This is a snapshot of part of our Christmas journey last year. It was quite nightmarish for awhile (in West Virginia). Hopefully, better weather will prevail and trip will be smooth and danger free. School is finished. I will run up there […]
Cookie Madness II
It’s all over. The madness, that is. I completed the cookies on Sunday night during the Survivor Finale MARATHON. It’s a relief. Now, to distribute…. Anyhoooo… Another 4 days left of school and the semester comes to a close. It’s getting hectic. And exciting. I’m excited to go home (again) for Christmas. To the snow. […]
Cookie Madness I

I’m a Slacker
Haven’t posted in forever…. I’m a slacker. The truth of the matter is, I have been extreeeeeemely busy. Basketball is now in full swing and the school year is winding down (we’re on semesters). It’s quite hectic. Throw all the Christmas “stuff” in the mix (shopping, cookies, decorating) and it makes for a very tired, […]
