| And consume food and drink. Preferably home made (not necessarily YOUR home you understand - some of us rely on the talents and kindness of others ) and in satisfying quantity. | |

Not wanting my hopes up. Maybe it has been there all along BUT when I went to Butler's Imdb page, it listed "Burns" as In Production and with Evil Twins as a Production Company. How accurate would that information be? I don't know how accurate IMBD is, Nay. But I hope this time they're right! I wonder if he's filming it over the winter or very early spring. I would imagine that that is the time of year when the tourists pretty much stay away. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. | |

| Rambling Random:
Thanksgiving may very well have been present here last night.
It's close to the end of the school year and we (parents, teacher, students) had organised a break-up party/dinner. As a joke, I told all of the boys they had to wear a tie and all of the girls they had to wear a dress. Some of course were worried but others went out and bought something nice. Two boys even wore fedoras!
Everyone had a fabulous night. So relaxed and with such good company. In the end, 60 people (some whole families) came out for dinner. After dinner, two things happened. My good lipstick fell out of my dress pocket. After offering a $5 reward, the room was suddenly filled with 20 students searching under tables. Such cheap labour!
Then came something completely out of the blue. As you all know here, I have been 'garden planning' for what seems like forever. I'm closer certainly but debate was still occurring about the centrepiece in one side - the plant. Should I go native tree, large potted plant, bird bath??? Well, last night the decision was made in perfect fashion.
For Christmas, my parents and their lovely children gave me a spectacular red rose bush. The children wrote their names on small cards and then attached them to the rosebush. Without a doubt, it is one of the most special gifts I have ever received from a class and was made all the more special because I already had that empty space ready and waiting!
I was the last to leave, which for a teacher, is unusual. As a parting gift, each child gave me a hug. My two most demanding students gave me two hugs each.
It will be incredibly hard to give them up in one week. We've trained each other so well. | |

| That was lovely, Nay. You are a very dedicated teacher and last night proved that your students are very dedicated to you. They are the future and it sounds like they are on the right paths. Congratulations! | |

| Thanks very much, ladies. It was very affirming for me professionally and personally in an often thankless job. I wish that feeling for everyone in their chosen profession .... even GB. | |

| That's such a sweet story, Nay! Teachers leave a real impression on a child's heart. I still remember my first grade teacher Miss Grindler. I always remember she was really sweet, really pretty and always smelled really nice. Of all my teachers, she was one of my favorites. Funny thing, even at my age I still remember all of my teachers. I might not remember a lot of things/people, but I do remember teachers....good and bad. Random: I am becoming a real techno-geek. I'm working on several projects around the house, including converting old VHS tapes to DVD, (trying) to build a home network, and trying to learn and get involved more with "techno" nerdy stuff. I REEEEEALLLY, REEEEALLY love my new XBox 360. I can stream Netflix through it on HD TV, too! I watched Zombieland last night. Then of course there are the games..... I made away with a lot of good deals for Black Friday, including a nifty desktop PC for under $400....which I'm using now. | |
