planning a facation

a facation is a fake vacation.

people it is February i have worked 60 plus hours... chip is working 7 days this week and i have class all weekend. all of this warrants me a few frivolously hours of planning a facation. it will aids in boosting the mid winter blues. i am in serious need of sunshine and no to do list. i will let you know where i am facationing by the end of classes this weekend.

bed and pet bed... really???

tractors and school buses

i was late to school because i got behind 2 school buses each with multiple stops... i am puzzled as to why 2 buses would be on the same route picking up people at staggered driveways... all of the schools have varied start times by more than an hour... huh?

side note: bus driver = a dangerous job with many liabilities
i am THANKFUL FOR THEM as they bring my students to me each day HOWEVER it is a job i would be VERY VERY SCARED to do.

then as the buses turned to go to their BIG RED SCHOOL HOUSES a tractor pulled in front of me at the stop sign... all this to say i was LATE for faculty meeting... and walked in the door as they were introducing me and a new position that i am taking on. so today i wear the scarlet T for TARDY.

happy THURSDAY.

i am hoping that by tomorrow i will be enchanted by the thought of tractors (insert the many great songs about GREEN TRACTORS) and school buses doing the GREAT and FRUITFUL jobs that they do but for now i am well ... I AM LATE and all that goes with that.

dialogue defining terms of endearment

Mr. Darcy: How are you this evening, my dear?
Elizabeth Bennet: Very well... although I wish you would not call me "my dear."
Mr. Darcy: [chuckles] Why?
Elizabeth Bennet: Because it's what my father always calls my mother when he's cross about something.
Mr. Darcy: What endearments am I allowed?
Elizabeth Bennet: Well let me think...”Lizzie" for every day, "My Pearl" for Sundays, and...”Goddess Divine"... but only on very special occasions.
Mr. Darcy: And... what should I call you when I am cross? Mrs. Darcy...?
Elizabeth Bennet: No! No. You may only call me "Mrs. Darcy"... when you are completely, and perfectly, and incandescently happy.
Mr. Darcy: [he snickers] Then how are you this evening... Mrs. Darcy?
[kisses her on the forehead]
Mr. Darcy: Mrs. Darcy...
[kisses her on the right cheek]
Mr. Darcy: Mrs. Darcy...
[kisses her on the nose]
Mr. Darcy: Mrs. Darcy...
[kisses her on the left cheek]
Mr. Darcy: Mrs. Darcy...
[finally kisses her on the mouth]

then there was DAD!

On February First Many Moons ago my DAD was born. He has loved me and for that I AM THANKFUL!

happy LOVE history month

Love Me Not For Comley Grace

Love not me for comely grace,
For my pleasing eye or face;
Nor for any outward part,
No, nor for my constant heart:
For those may fail or turn to ill,
So thou and I shall sever.
Keep therefore a true woman's eye,
And love me still, but know not why;
So hast thou the same reason still
To doat upon me ever.
