Alllllmost Friday!

Happy Thursday!

Ok lets see... Saturday was Dana's Bridal shower at a little tea room in Tomball. It was really cute, we all ate little sandwiches and acted fancy. The 2nd shower that day... for a different wedding, was for a friend of Jordan's mom's daughter. Her shower was quite a bit bigger.... about 80 people there... lots of good food though... let me tell you, my waistline was budging that day!

Tuesday I went out and did my patriotic duty and voted... I Was actually really suprised that I just walked right in and right back out. I had no idea of half the people running.... I mean who honestly knows every judge, officer and rep of Houston?!

Half of my class is really upset about Obama... and the other half is really happy about it. And all I can say is what I told them... I said, ultimately you vote for who you think will do the best job for our country. After the voting is over all you can do is support your leader. That doesn't mean that you agree with everything he/she says or does, but you do respect their decisions in trying to do their best. I did not vote for Obama... but I hate those McCain supporters that actually tell me that he will be assassinated before he even hits office.... really? I mean really? Because who would be killing him.... Republicans? whites? Conservatives? The same people that are against killing (well except in war....ha) ok.... one of my kids said that he hopes Obama gets killed.... I actually went off in a rant in my classroom that that kind of talk spreads hate and hate was so over with about 50 years ago. Really? 12 year old kids, so persuaded that he is bad that they actually would like to see someone die? Its really disturbing.

I have to give a big shout out to Jordan... he is sooooo patient with me. I could do everything but bite his head off and he just hugs and loves me. ( He even set up my coffee this morning) UGh... I need Thanksgiving break already!.... even though that wont be much of a break with all the traveling, but what a time in my life to give thanks.

This weekend is a crafts show! when I get back (If I get a new cord to fit my camera) I will have to post pictures of my home deco. Oh I just love decorating!

Any teachers know a good way to teach main idea, or Blooms taxonomy?? sigh... This teaching lang. arts thing is going to be the death of me.
