Good luck moving, Theanna!! Feel better, Ariel!! Love you both!!
Going home for the weekend, but doing work cause I got squat done.
In my defense...
Parent. Teacher. Conferences.
>.< They aren't so bad, but it's the 13 hours in the classroom that will do you in. I'm exhausted.
Today, read a book to my second graders and in the book, there was an ice storm. Which of course, I vividly connect with eight grade.
So one of the boys asked if it was a true story, and we talked about how stories can be based on real events but still fiction.
He asked if the storm was January 8th, and I went... "Do you mean in January 1998? Because there was a huge storm and it's called Ice Storm '98 by the people who lived through it."
(Which of course includes me, at age 14... Ariel and Theanna, this was the start of pears and diet pepsi. ;) heh)
He goes "Yeah, and I was born during it!!"
At which point Sara feels extremely old.
