I survived-barely

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

We had a rough start to the Sea World trip. I had sweat buckets before we even loaded the kids onto the buses. Getting those buses and all the stuff organized already had me working hard before the key in the ignition had turned. I pawned my driving off on a mom who is also [...]

Sea World or Bust

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

Tomorrow I embark on the craziest thing I have every done as a teacher.

I am taking 16 3rd graders and 10 adults to Sea World for a Sleepover adventure in the shark tank.
6 months ago this seemed like a fabulous idea. Now, not so much.
In the past with the perfect teacher of 22 years, 3rd [...]

It’s a sad day

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

This may be the last time we all see kitty, the lovey that has been loved by this sweet little girl since she was 6 months old.  By the way, this outfit is so cute I can’t hardly stand it. My stepdad, Missy Mack’s Pops, has made great friends with the ladies who work at [...]

A Busy Weekend of Nothing

Monday, May 24th, 2010

We did a lot of stuff this weekend but nothing to really write home about. I cleaned out our downstairs closet and made the shift like Casey did. Winter coats went upstairs and swimming and summer paraphernalia came to the downstairs closet. That was fun. So much fun that I also cleaned out Missy Mack’s [...]

Swagger Wagon

Friday, May 21st, 2010

I know this has been going around the interwebs and on FB, but I find it so funny. If you haven’t seen it, have a little laugh for your Friday. Let’s call it a Friday Funny. I do have to say, I wish I knew they were casting for such a video because in my [...]

The Thursday Rant!

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Computers.
Love them.
Hate them.
Example A: Coco’s damn computer. What the hell? How many times in the past year have those of us in blogland had to go through withdrawal because something has happened to her computer? I can’t take it anymore. She has shipped her computer off more times than necessary and had way too many [...]

Cappy what?

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

Have you ever seen something like this before?
Well, I have. Last week, this furry friend visited my school. My jaw never left the ground and it literally blew my mind. My friend spotted this thing being walked on an Austin street. Pulled over, got out of her car and went to talk to the owner [...]

This is all I got

Monday, May 17th, 2010

This one beautiful girl to show for my weekend. I did not witness this loveliness. Thankfully, Mr. Mack was Super Dad this weekend and took care of everything, well, mostly.
Mr. Mack and I both woke up Friday morning with the stomach virus. It was bad. I am still not recovered. I can’t seem to shake [...]

The Thursday Rant

Thursday, May 13th, 2010

Puke.
Blow.
Vomit.
All the words associated with this disgusting thing that our bodies seem to find a necessary way to rid of yucky stuff in our system. I have seen my share of it in the last day and Lord help me if this spreads. It is awful to be sick when it is you but I [...]

The Dance Recital

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

I have to say this weekend with Missy Mack’s first big dance recital was pretty exciting. She got to put on make up, which was fun to put make up on her sweet little face. She was sure to tell my mom when she arrived how I put on pretty purple eye stuff  just like [...]
