Tuesday at School and with my Granddaughter

Tuesday, September 07, 2010

First and foremost, I had a wonderful day at school! All the kids followed directions and we got a lot of work done and no one was absent!
Second, it is a four day week.
Third: I got to play with this precious bundle for a while todayl

Then she got dressed up to go to her aunt's house.

But I think this is the best and really shows how we all feel some days;

Have a great day!

My Reason for not being active on Spark for the next few days

Monday, September 06, 2010

This lovely little angel and her parents are going to be here later today. I will be to busy playing with

to do more than the minimum on here. Want to keep my streaks going, but most likely will be missing in action since I will be busy working and playing

I think my family has priority.

Don't you?

Baptism Today

Sunday, September 05, 2010

Welcome, precious little child,
So fresh from God above,
Baptised today in Jesus’ name,
Held in His arms of love.
May angels guide your tiny feet
And bring you smiles to wear,
And may our Heavenly Father
Always keep you in His care.

My granddaughter will be christened today. She is four months old. Her whole family will be there. The priest who married her parents is performing the ceremony. We will have a party at her other grandparent's home afterwards. I can't wait to see her. It has been three months! I will post pictures as soon as I can from today.

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses

Saturday, September 04, 2010

New Excuses: These are actual excuse notes from parents (including original spelling) collected by Nisheeth Parekh, University Texas Medical Branch at Galveston.

My son is under a doctor's care and should not take P.E. today. Please execute him.

Please excuse Lisa for being absent. She was sick and I had her shot.

Dear School: Please ekscuse John being absent on Jan. 29, 29, 30, and also 33.

Please excuse Gloria from Jim today. She is administrating.

Please excuse Roland from P.E. for a few days. Yesterday he fell out of a tree and misplaced his hip.

John has been absent because he had two teeth taken out of his face.

Carlos was absent yesterday because he was playing football. He was hurt in the growing part.

Megan could not come to school today because she has been bothered by very close veins.

Please excuse Ray Friday from school. He has very loose vowels.

Please excuse Tommy for being absent yesterday. He had diarrhea and his boots leak.

Irving was absent yesterday because he missed his bust.

Please excuse Jimmy for being. It was his father's fault.

I kept Billie home because she had to go Christmas shopping because I don't know what size she wear.

Please excuse Jennifer for missing school yesterday. We forgot to get the Sunday paper off the porch, and when we found it Monday, we thought it was Sunday.

Please excuse Mary for being absent yesterday. She was in bed with gramps.

Gloria was absent yesterday as she was having a gangover.

Please excuse Burma, she was sick and under the doctor.

Maryann was absent December 11-16, because she had a fever, sore throat, headache and upset stomach. Her sister was also sick, fever and sore throat, her brother had a low grade fever and ached all over. I wasn't the best either, sore throat and fever. There must be something going around, her father even got hot last night.

The sad thing is that we see similar "excuses" every week at my school...you just have to wonder what (or if) they are thinking!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Report Inappropriate Comment

A laugh for Friday

The Frog in the Bank

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from the teller's nameplate that her name is "Patricia Whack." So he says: "Ms. Whack, I'd like to get a loan to buy a boat and go on a long vacation."

Patti looks at the frog in disbelief and asks how much he wants to borrow. The frog says $30,000. The teller asks his name and the frog says that his name is Kermit Jagger and that it's OK, he knows the bank manager.

Patti explains that $30,000 is a substantial amount of money and that he will need to secure some collateral against the loan.

She asks if he has anything he can use as collateral. The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny pink porcelain elephant, about half an inch tall. Bright pink and perfectly formed.

Very confused, Patti explains that she'll have to consult with the manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says: "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000. And he wants to use this as collateral." She holds up the tiny pink elephant saying. "I mean, what the heck is this?"

(Are you ready . . .)

(Hang on to something . . .)

So the bank manager looks back at her and says: "It's a knick knack, Patti Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone."
