good weekend

We had a great weekend. We went to the Brownwood Reunion and enjoyed the nice weather outside. Jaidyn came to visit us for the weekend and we took her to the carnival. She had more fun than she could stand. Joe's daughter, JoAnna, also came and it was great to just play this weekend and not worry about "to do lists". However, I am exhausted. Now it is time to go back to work tomorrow. I am so glad tomorrow it the first day of fall. I hope we have an actual "fall" this year.

funny week

Sometimes kids say the funniest things. In class on Thursday, I asked if anyone had been watching the weather channel and following the hurricane. Some raised their hands and made some comments. One of my boys (who is GT) stated that he had not been able to watch the weather because he had been watching the Republican convention. I commented that I found that interesting and asked him if he was Republican. He nodded yes. Then, my little Rebecca in the front row, (who had been listening so intently to every word,) raised her hand. I said "yes, Rebecca, did you have something to add?" With her big brown eyes shining at me, she said "Well, Mrs. Medley, I am part Indian."

Short Week

It has been a short week and I am already looking forward to the weekend. We have had pre-testing this week and that is boring to me. (however, it is helpful). I am planning to rest this weekend and get some things done around the house and yard. I don't know about anyone else, but I am ready for fall weather. I am ready to be able to wear a sweater!!
