Wish I was there . .
My passport is ready and I can be packed in minutes.

Foreshadowing

I went into school today to drop off some things for my room. Teachers return next week and the following week, students return. Guess I have to admit the party's over.

I park the car, haul the kids out of the car seats, take a dozen step, and then slip and fall to the ground, twisting my ankle. This is made worse by the fact that I am wearing sneakers and am only carrying my purse. Currently I sit with a frozen bag of corn on my swollen foot.

An ominous start for the year. Can't help but wonder if the universe is trying to tell me I should have stayed in law.

Sunshine - Free or not, knowing me, I'd wipe out within five minutes in front of a large group students. At least my latest tumble was only witnessed by my onw children.

Saw the St. Wolfgang picture on your January 04, 2007! That's so exciting, that's were I went two weeks ago, where I spent atn least some days most of my summers over the years. Do you have any connections to that place?
Do you have an email somewhere hidden, hexe? (Hint: Mine is on my profile *g*)
