The Hatchet's Stopped By

Yes indeedie, the Hatchet's stopped by today. I think they were in our classroom for a total of ummm... maybe 2 minute -literally.

Update 11/15

My Birthday is next week, I can't believe I am getting this old. GG-GP says he is going to cook dinner for me.

The people who are coming to "trim the fat" at work will be at my jobsite next week.

Last week I took my dad to Ikea. We each ate a plate of Swedish meatballs with mash potatoes and gravy. When we got down stairs he wanted to have a hot dog. So we ate hot dogs.

Yesterday I took my dad to see my brother in the foot hills. On the way home he wanted to eat at In and Out. So I told him about "animal style" cheese burger. He loved it. I had made soup in the crockpot for the guys for dinner. When we got home my dad wanted to come in and eat a bowl of soup. I am happy my dad is eating more.

I went to apple hill and bought 3 pies. 1 is gone already. I had it less then 24 hours.

Today I went to church, went to my dad's and unloaded some firewood he got at my brothers, then I went to see my dear friend who just had surgery on her foot, came home and planted two iris bulbs.

Happy Birthday to my sister CHACHA,

I remember the first time you came to our church with Doug (not his real name) and his mother. I thought who is that BIG Haired girl with beautiful long RED fingernails? I knew right away you two where going to get married.

You are the proverbs 31 wife. You work hard at all the things you do.

Do you remember telling me you will never be a soccer mom and drive a mini van? hehehe. What happened?

You are a very kind and giving person. You are beautiful inside and out.

Oh I did not want to forget, do you remember our conversation a long time ago about the pencil? How's it going for you? ;)

You are not a mother, you are a MOM. Your children will stand up and call you blessed.

You are fun and adventurous. You are brave like Nancy Drew.

You can dance. You can really shake your booty, shake shake shake, shake your booty. Guess what? I can do the "stanky leg" heheh.

Girl, can you cook. Remember that time you had that open house and it snowed? It was the first time Mrs. F had seen snow.

Did I forget to mention anything about "the power group"? I couldn't let it go by. I am all for it , Girl Power !

You have a great sense of humor and a beautiful smile.

Anyways, thank you for blessing me many times. Thank you for your friendship.

I hope you have a great Birthday.

Censor

It is a good thing I have all of you as my Censor.

All I can say is I am damed if I do, and damed if I don't.

I am looking forward to bed.

I can see why God says his path is narrow. The wide path is so much easier.

I can't tell if I am taking the high road or the low road.

Am I the victim or the martyr ? I hope not. I don't want either of those roles.

Student #1 Big Adventure

Last week a group of our students went downtown to view a jury trial. After they viewed the real trial the students had a mock trial of their own. Lucky me, I was voted to stay back and hold down the fort and do some work with Ms. Sunshine. I told them no way. I wanted to go. My co-workers said that I had already been on 4 juries and I did not "need" to go. My co-workers had to bribe me to stay back with a taco bell gift card. It worked.

All and all I had a good day with Ms. Sunshine. We got the work done we where suppose to. We may fight like sisters, but when it comes down to the nuts and bolts of it, we get it done, what ever the task is. We do it in an efficient manner. I usually give in to what ever Ms. Sunshine wants after all she is my elder.

Anyways before the other staff and students got back I was getting phone calls that when they walked into the room where the trial was being held and sat down student #1 started acting strange, like sinking down in the chair. He had to sit next to the Joker. But that is not why student #1 was acting funny. Come to find out he said that it was his first cousin on trial for murder. At least that is what student #1 said to the staff who called me.

We all know that student #1 is a compulsive lier. Was it true this time? What a strange twist, a coincidence.

So when student #1 came back in the classroom he had this big smile on his face. I said what are you so happy about? Student #1 said he saw his step brother on trial for murder. I said did he see you? Student #1 said no, he could only see the back of the defendants head. He only realized it was his step brother when the court said his step brothers wife's address. I said you did not know your step brother was on trial for murder? Student #1 said he had heard something about it but did not know the details until that day. He had a twinkle in his eye and launched into the story of his step brother (not first cousin) murdering his lady and running from the cops. The story goes student #1's "step brother" hid underneath a big rig truck and fell asleep after he stabbed the lady. The cops found his "step brother" and slapped him to wake him up. Then the cops arrested the step brother.

Student #1's eyes smile and he becomes very animated when he is telling you something. I asked why he did not fuss about sitting next to the Joker. He said he was afraid that if he made a fuss he might get in trouble from the cops. I think he believes the stories he tells himself. If I didn't know him I might of fell for it, the step brother story. As far fetched as it sounds student #1 tells a very good story. He sucks you in.

Christmas Exchange at Work

I am excited for our Christmas exchange at work this year. Mr. Medic's first idea was to draw names and buy 1 item at the dollar store for that person. I was not interested in that. I am not sure who came up with the next idea, I think it was Mr. Medic and my teacher. We have five staff in the classroom. So each one of us will buy 5 $1.00 scratcher lottery tickets. Each one of us will have 5 chances to win. My gig- a- low says we should make a deal if we win anything over $25.00 we split it 5 ways. I think that is a good idea.

I hope I win, I hope I win, I hope I win.
