Kindergarten Kronicles Part 4

student: My ear hurts
me: Does your throat hurt too?
student: noooo.........
me: Well the nurse is not here today. When you get home tell your mom your ear hurts. You might have an ear infection.
student: okay


30 minutes after school is over. Student's mother calls. Student had put a pink eraser from the end of a pencil in her ear. Student had to go to doctor to get them to remove it.

I didn't think to LOOK in her ear!!!! Lesson learned: look in ear or any "hurt" place for weird objects!!!!!

Wedding News

So one more step for the wedding is down. Finally, a photographer. Thank goodness and I registered for some cool dinnerware. I registered at this place in Augusta called Charleston Street, a flower shop. Who knew you could registered for dinnerware there. The stuff is called Juliska and I really like it. I am mixing the pieces in white and cappuccino colors. For any of you, who give a darn!!! I said to heck with fine china!!!!

Take No Offense, Please!

GO DAWGS..........SICK 'EM!!!!!!!

So, yesterday was the big Georgia vs. South Carolina game and poor Georgia lost. However, it was my birthday (old as dirt, I know!) and my sister and I went a celebrating and then to Fun-Leigh's (one of the SOHO comedians) house for some entertainment. Amanda's buddy Zim lives across the street from Fun-Leigh and Fun-Leigh likes to play practical jokes on Mr. Zim's dawg, Uga, that lives on his front porch. So we snuck over and posted a little sign on Uga. I wonder if Zim has found it today....he he he And I do like my Georgia roots but I thought this was pretty entertaining to say the least. Who doesn't like a practical joke???

Thankful Thursday

Kindergarten Kronicles Part 2

So you never hear about a good thing with parents in the public schools. Well, not usually. It is mostly the bad things teachers do (in the news or on tv)...however, I had a parent email my principal, so I thought I would share it:

I just wanted to take a few minutes of your time to “Rave” about one of your teachers. Mrs. Williams has been a God sent to us this year. My daughter had a very difficult time adjusting to a new/bigger school and it wasn’t easy for any of us, but Mrs. Williams never gave up and she met us more than half way. She has been wonderful and my daughter is starting to settle in.

I felt it important that I tell you this because so many times we receive complaints about what someone is doing wrong, but we don’t seem to get enough Compliments when someone is doing something right.

Mrs. Williams is doing it Right!

LOOK AT THAT HAIR!!!!

My friend Julie from high school just had her third baby, and it was a boy. Thank goodness or she would be trying again (at least she said that she is very thankful). Eli was born on Friday and look at all of that hair!!! He is teeny tiny. I guess I need to get started to catch up with her. I will definitely wait until, at least February 23rd!!

SUPER SATUR-DEE!!!

So this weekend is Labor Day and my cousin Robert and Natalie invited me to the lake for a little celebration on Saturday, sorry no pics, I totally forgot. We had a good time and well everytime I am with them funny, wild things always happen.
SUCH AS:
1. Brian, one of Robert's buddies, wanted to put out a trout line to catch some fish; however, no fishies were caught only part of a tree with a lake jellyfish on it. Does a lake jellyfish exist? That is what it look like. Robert got a video of it and all you can hear in the background is my sister saying: OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! She probably won't be swimming the lake water for some time........
2. GEORGIA won the game. Yeah! Go Dawgs!!! Except there is one player, if someone could tell me how to pronounce his name: KNOWSHON???? What was his momma thinking?
3. Buddy brought me Patron for my birthday next weekend. What? Is he crazy? So apparantly I had to do some shots so I did one with each of the men there. Good thing there were only 3!! And then I got a little chatty!!
4. The only thing missing: Freddie!
