oops -- it's Friday and I'm out of town!!

My sister said I need to update this, so here goes. I wich I had some pictures to put up, but I'm visiting our brother at Liberty University right now, so I don't think I'm allowed to upload pictures. I want to show you pictures of my curtains and digital piano cover, so maybe next time.

It's spring break!!! I spent the first few days at my parent's house, celebrating Easter. I got my taxes done and went "shopping" at the local thrift store. (on a happy note, I went there to get some smaller-size jeans - I'm down 2 or 3 sizes!!) I left on Wednesday to visit our brother, Kaleb. He's in his 3rd year at LU, so it has been great to hang out with him for a few days and meet his friends. I'm headed back to my parent's house today. It's been a really good, relaxing time just "chillin' with my bro"

Wednesday's What: What do you miss the most about school (high school or college)?

Wednesday's What and SPRING BREAK!!!!!

1 12/ more days!! Spring break is on the way! (And so is my brother ! :-) I'm just so tired -- I need a mental and physical break! I'm going to visit my brother for part of it -- I'm so excited!

Wednesday's What: What do you enjoy the most at Easter?

Wednesday's What and other "stuff"

I'll get to the "what" in a minute. Before that, here's a quick update.

I haven't been feeling well for over a week. The last time this happened, I ended up with the flu and secondary pneumonia, so (with some "encouragement" from my mother) I went to the doctor after school on Monday. I was in and out in record time, considering it's an "urgent care" facility which usually makes you glad that whatever is wrong isn't really THAT urgent! Long story short - I have strep! This wasn't too surprising given that 3 of my students were out with it and the 2nd grade teacher had it also! This gave me a "get-out-of-school-free" card for Tuesday, but it was back to the grind today. I'm still only at about 70%, since I'm still really congested, but I have more energy when I'm "out and about" than when I'm just sitting at home watching the paint fade!
So I came back today to a disinfected room (thanks a BUNCH to my aide and a special mom of my students!) This comes at an especially good time because of grandparent's day this Friday!

Wednesday's What:

What is the strangest thing you have "hanging around" your house/apartment?

I'll leave you with these pictures as my answer:

mustache

I know -- great job keeping up with the blog! I even missed my 2nd "Wednesday's What?" OK, so here it is:

What do you like to do on the weekends? I like to stay home and try to get moved into my apartment. I've been there since September, but still have boxes to unpack!

Mustache:

We had this word in our Reading book this week. I asked one of the students to read it to me. I guess this shows the usefulness of phonics! They pronounced it: must ache. I don't know if people who have them feel that way, but I was proud of their effort!
