DDA Chapter 27

[Tammi67]

Good morning.

Deb - I hope you are feeling better today.

Elin - I'm glad to hear Bob is making progress, although it isn't as fast as he would like it to be.

Today is the 5th Grade Fling. Think party. All day. Grand send-off to Middle School. Cook-out, raffles, dance, dunk tank that all the teachers take turns sitting in, yearbook/shirt signing, slide show of their years in elem. school. Another fun, but busy day.

Good morning, DDA!

So, yesterday Miles had a games day, and they saw a magician. Today is movie day. Tomorrow they are going to Skate Estate (skating, minigolf, waterslides). Friday is a half-day, and they are spending a majority of it doing activities with 1st graders who will be moving to the school next year. And yet, I would be given a hard time if I wanted to pull him out this week!?! I wonder if they will do anything next week.

Today is Laura's first day off. She is starting it off by sleeping in. I can't believe that graduation is coming up in a little over a week. I am not ready. My house is a mess. And yet, I don't seem to be able to get myself up and moving. I guess I do denial well. Thank goodness she didn't want a party, so I don't really have too much to do other than get the house ready for my parents.

I helped Paula out by doing a couple of designs for her quickly and made the mistake of posting them for her instead of PMing them to her. Now I am getting so many requests. I can't believe the number of people in some of the groups. I've told them all that they have to wait until things slow down around here. Now I remember why I stopped designing. I wonder where people find the time to keep cranking them out.

It's looking to be a much sunnier and warmer day here today. Maybe that will give me the spark that I need.

Have a great day, DDA!

Good morning, DDA!

We are to have what the weathermen are calling "the perfect spring day" here so Bob and I are going to take advantage of my not teaching to go out and about. Not sure where we will go or how long he can stand to be out in the car, but we are going to give it a shot!

I hope you NE people get some better weather. Kathrin says it is to be better today. Hope that trend continues.

Tammi - sounds like lots of fun for Nicholas. Have you taken this week off to get the kids set for summer?

The sun did shine today and we hit the 70s. A storm just blew through, but it was quick and the sun is out again.

I went into work today, made 6 hours before the room started spinning. They sent me home and told me not to come in tomorrow unless I'm feeling 100%. Why do I have to get sick when I'm learning a new job?

I think it is called Murphy's Law. Sorry you are still not feeling better.

I hope you and Bob had a good day today, and that being out and about helped his spirits a bit.

This is my short week, only scheduled to work today and tomorrow, but I took today off. I'll go in tomorrow and then am off the rest of the weekend. I took last Sat and Sun off for Alyssa's show. On Sunday they leave with their dad for a week and are going up to Maine with a few of his friends. Someone has a house up there that they are staying at. When are you free??

Sorry you still aren't feeling well, Deb.

Good morning, DDA!

Tammi - I am "free" until June 27, but have things to do. I think we ought to be able to find time to get together, don't you?!?

I hope so. I plan to use my free time to edit photos/videos that I've accummulated over the years, as well as just do NOTHING.

And just for the record, going back to work after being off for a week STINKS!

Good Morning,

After a fantastic Keith Urban concert last night with my oungest and her fiance, we're off to spend the weekend at Orange Beach, Al. with the family, hope to have a great time doing nothing.

 

[Tammi67]

Good morning.

Debbie - enjoy your weekend!

Last day of school!!!!

 

[lovesdumbo]

Deb-sorry you were sick. I was out of work Wednesday with a nasty headache. I was thinking it might have hormonal but then 3 others in my house feel lousy so I think it is just a bug. Hope you're feeling better now.

Debbie-have a great weekend!

Beth-good luck with all those requests

Elin-hope you had a nice day with Bob Wednesday.


My kids still have school next week. Joe & Lizzy have a half day next Thursday. Emma has a full day and half days Fri & Mon the 28th. We are all ready for it to be over! Lizzy has been acting like it isn't over and not doing her work so that has been a lot of fun to deal with. I've already told her she will be getting an early start on her summer homework.

 

[bethbuchall]

Debbie, have a wonderful weekend!

Bernadette, Laura finished everything that she needed to, but she had definitely checked out by the end of the year. Miles has a half day today (for no reason). He goes to school all next week, and next Friday is also a half day. I can't believe that graduation is a week from tomorrow. I've definitely been playing the head in the sand game.

Tammi- for last day of school!

The kids are Home for Summer Vacation!! Nick made honors, Hunter made high honors (proves that the meds did help) and Colby was above grade level in all but one subject and at grade leve in that subject. It is amazing how proper diagnosis and treatment can improve life

I have a friend with a boy in Alyssa's class who has been having homework/classroom battles with him since K, and this year he was finally diagnosed and medicated for ADD. He got perfect scores on 2 out of 4 of their SOLs this year. I'm so proud of him and thrilled for her, because it truly was a weight lifted off of their shouldners.

Good morning.

That is terrific new for both families!

Good work, gentlemen!

Good morning, DDA!

Not a whole lot on my plate for the entire weekend, but I have to make appearances at two graduation parties this afternoon. Looking forward to some quiet time after that!

Have good weekends, everyone. Hug those Dads in your lives!
