I HATE bus duty. (“Sir, I must do my DUTY!”—hee!hee!hee!)

Putting up posters in the hall Telling kids to watch the advertisement video Giving them stickers with monkeys on them Handing out tabloids about the books Rescheduling bus duty from the library to somewhere else Getting volunteers for chili supper Getting teacher wish lists Wondering why I have to do this to make money for […]

Today was another productive day. I woke up early so got a shower and worked on e-mail for a while. Then when Deb got up she brought me coffee, o.j., and a Deb McMuffin. Alice had stayed at 4th St. and I stayed at Deb’s, so Alice came back to pick us up, and we […]

I can’t believe it! Today with the help of Jerome, Janet, and Alice, I actually got Kelley Ridge liveable again. After I moved all the stuff out of 4th Street, I had no idea where to put everything and still make room to have some semblance of order. Jerome and Janet have “the eye,” and […]

I left as soon as I could after school. I had to to the Valley to get Greg. Then I dropped him off at Deb’s before meeting Nancy and Mor-Mor at the Hampton Inn. We talked for a while and then went out to eat. We wanted to go to Red Lobster, but there was […]

For the past two times at Calvary, the book fair has been in there, so I have had to give up what little shared space I have to the literacy program’s book fair. It wouldn’t sting so much if the library got a little bit of the profit, but it doesn’t, even though I have […]

I went to my 4-6 weeks appointment with Dr. Jerome. He is a miracle worker. My family has prophet in our midst, and we don’t even recognize it. I’m just so fortunate that I can have him work on my aches and pains. Last night he worked on my shoulder, and it was really painful, […]

I tried to make it to Mass at Sacred Heart, but I was too late. It was really disappointing. I had been looking forward to it all day. But then my principal wanted me to do some other stuff for report cards, and so I was late. I feel as if I’m missing my chance […]

Now before you think how trite that is, Mondays don’t usually get me down because I am coming off a weekend where I’ve had a break from my work and I am energized. And I was going to complain about the rain until I remembered that it was not freezing rain and that I should […]

You must look at my daughter in England. Click on England Blog link on my main page. Caitlan is at Oxford looking matriculated. I want my sons to post pictures of where they are in their respective cities. Last night I should have done all kinds of business, but I accidentally started watching FATHER OF […]
