  • With the death of my mother, I have gained admittance into a club I never wanted to be a part of - women who have lost their moms. It's kind of a secret society in the fact that very few talk about it, until time comes…

  • Terri told me was going to offer me a "gift" - and then she proceeded to tell me that I am excused from attending ACSI Convention in November. Wow. That surprised me. Ironically, as I was driving to the school to get t…

  • cheerleaders

    The poms for my little cheerleaders came in this weekend and the girls absolutely love them. They used them in chapel and then begged me to have them for recess! They do look adorable when they do their routine.

  • sad news

    My Uncle Charles is dying - Marlene got called to rush to his bedside and has already left Nitro to get to North Carolina in time. How odd that Charles and Al should wind up dying so close to each other, in spite of the…

  • Game On!
