When did you become a teacher?
14 years ago
Would you rather: Have a side soup or a side salad?
depends... what is the soup for the day?
I generally choose salad as a dinner... and therefore it usually doesn't come with this option
If you could click your heels together and be anywhere, where would it be?
At this very moment... probably with my family in Georgia.
They are on this island... St. Simon... is that right?
for a wedding...
I would love to see the island and all that fun stuff...
BUT WHAAAAA
I am the dog sitter... and my hubs isn't off for SB
and we weren't invited to the wedding
so that would be a little strange right???
so to end my pity party I would like for you to know this...
as my family sends out pics to the whole group about their
spectacular scenery or activities...
I send them pics of their dogs...
and my hubs sent them pics of his keyboard...
HA think they get the idea of our jealousy

If you could read minds, whose mind would you love to read?
Do I have to pick one person...
I would love to read the minds of anyone that steps foot in my school.
That would be AH MAZING...
think of all the things you could know...
are they telling the truth?
