Just had to post this…
More on my life soon, but in the meantime I saw this and just *had* to post it here considering the season, the animal people some of my readers are, and- oh just watch it already! 🙂 I give you…

Boxing Day
No…I am not celebrating the British holiday a few months early. Â Today, the family gathered at the home of my oldest brother to celebrate the birthday of two of our youngsters. Â I guess once you go beyond 18 years, my family does not age. Â We also got to meet big brother’s new friend who was …

My previous post became too lengthy, but I wanted to share the following video they had on the hotel tv. Whether it was my relief that the baby had finally fallen asleep, or my being so tired after a huge busy day, the video made me emotional – I think it’s just a feel-good video. …
Missing them already
This post was written last Tuesday, before the last post, but the sentiments still apply of course. There was a video too, but unfortunately I did not get permission to post it here. However, once it is officially posted at the church website I will be allowed to post that link. Technically, the video is …
Coming to a close
‘Tis that time of year again, when things come to an end for the hot season. This month is halfway over, and jobs will soon dry up for me. I anticipate this week will be my last full week for work, assuming I can find jobs for Thursday and Friday- the rest of the week …
Friday
Well, that Thursday entry was less than exciting I think. Hopefully this will be an improvement- 8th grade. In near-city district. At the end of the year. When another job popped up in a different district I was tempted to dump this one for it, but in the end I didn’t have any issues thanks …
A video teaching weekend
Being that it’s been five days since my last post, I would suppose it’s time to write something again. But what? I suppose I can write about this weekend. This post will actually go back a bit though, since earlier events pertain to this weekend. For the most part the weekend was quite ordinary. 4th/5th …
Optical Illusion Personality Test
This is pretty cool. Watch the video and figure out which way the lady is spinning. According to the video, if you see the lady spinning to the right, your right brain dominates and your thinking is black and white and fact-based. If you see her spinning to the left, you are more creative and …
It’s official- summer is over
And mostly due to my laziness I am subbing once again, and that is good news for this blog. I have been on hiatus from this for too long. I still intend to have some posts of my life outside of teaching, but for a while I have just been turned off from writing during …
Happy 5-0, Jack-o
Today marks the half-century mark for one of the strangest, most celebrated (in his heyday), and most controversial performers ever to dance across a stage. At one time, the mere mention of Michael Jackson’s name sent teenage girl’s hearts a-flutter. Now, it seems that it sends chilling thoughts of child abuse charges, skin color changing, …
