$3.07?!?!?!?

Driving to work this morning, I noticed that last nights $2.55 gas price climbed 52 cents to $3.07!!!! I couldnt' believe it. What a time to go from a gas saving Accord to a 17 mpg SUV....not to mention my commute grew 11 miles as well. Wasn't it nice only 6 years ago in high school when we paid 70 cents???? What is everyone else paying for gas???

Wanna laugh?

So I've been sharing 2 embarrasing moments for me, and everyone thinks they are so funny. So I thought I'd put them up in case I have yet to share them with you.

1. Someone was selling alarm systems for houses door to door. So I open up the door, and there is this maybe late 20's guy. You know, shaved arms, spikey black hair. He asked if my mom and dad were home. I had to pause, think, and say "uhhh, I live here". I hope he felt dumb. It's not like he was in his 70's and did not know how old young people are.

2. I was at that wedding this weekend. I searched long and hard for the right dress, shoes, and purse. I wanted to look grown up, thin, and put together. I was going to see a lot of old friends (and an ex of my husbands, who was also a candlelighter). So here I am in my friend Susan's car for the rehersal dinner, and the Ex said, hey, I bought the same dress with pink trim instead of green. So instead of looking cuter, we looked like twins. All day I heard, how nice that you two match!

Hopefully this brightened your day!!!

I know it's been a while, so here is a picture of my niece, Madeline Grace Buckles, who is almost 6 months old. She was so much fun to play with. Doesn't even look anything like she did when I saw her in March :( Posted by Picasa

This is Sam and his friend Maples who are in Iraq (well Sam is home for 2 weeks on leave, but you know what I mean). Glad they found a way to get a little bit cooled off in the desert. Posted by Picasa

Back to school

Hello - Long time, no blog. Anyway, I have finished summer school now and I am back in my regular classroom setting up for the fall. This is my favorite time of year, when everything is nice, neat and organized. Hopefully that will last a little while after Sept. 6th when the kids show up!!! Since it is my second year, I feel like I am much more prepared. Now instead of guessing what needs to be done, I am more efficiently setting up for that fateful day. I had an anonymous comment by my bowling picture with Ryan...next time leave your name in your message!! News about Ryan - from Sep to Nov. he will be a part of the Langley Honor Guard. He will participate in ceremonies and funerals instead of doing his normal work in the shop. He also gets a fancy new uniform! Congrats to him :-)
