Vacation is over. Julie and Kyle are back in NY. Tomorrow, I go back to school. It’s just a teacher workday, but it’s still BACK. And the end of the long awaited holiday break. I’m sad now.
Happy Easter
Happy Easter! (I already covered that)…. Today is Julie and Kyle’s last day (unless you count tomorrow morning before they leave to go home. I don’t). We’ve been to the zoo and it was packed out.

Prizes

It was a “gift pack” containing: a sandbucket and shovel a coupon for a free tai chai intro? a brazilian cd sampler some tissue paper (wrapped still) a $10 borders […]
