Okay, to all you family members who keep sending messages through my daughter (Sherri & Laurie) about me NOT blogging. . . . LOL How do you find something to write about everyday? I just must have a really boring life compared to you two, that is the only thing I can figure out. I am lucky if I can sit down and write up something once a week. I go to work for about 5 hours, come home take a 45 minute power nap, take Kaylin to softball practice, go to the gym, and back home again. Usually nothing to crazy exciting happens within those events of my day.
I guess I could blog about my 4th graders and some of the things they say to me in the course of a day, I call them "humorous one-liners." Like. . . . Teacher: Johnny do you know what it means to have "general knowledge?" Johnny: Well, I think it means that it is knowledge that a General in the military has. Teacher: Trying not to laugh hysterically because it might hurt Johnny's feelings. Says "NO, it means to have knowledge about everyday stuff that happens around you or in the world." Johnny: Then how does a General in the military get to be a General if they don't have a lot of knowledge? Teacher: I'm not saying that a General does not have a lot of knowledge, I am just saying that is not what it means to have "general knowledge." Johnny: Well, I guess I will go home and tell my dad that he might not want to become a General. Teacher: Okay, class it's time to get out your MATH! This conversation could have went on and on and on so we just deterred them (him) in a different direction. So that is what kind of conversations I have during one of my workdays. It is rather refreshing some days but others are very frustrating.
I pray all of you had a great time at Grandma B's party.
