A lot of people here keep flour in the freezer because of critters. I am always short of freezer space so I just keep it in a good airtight container.

I have graded two sets of midterms. Two more to go. I saved the smallest class for last, so it's not as bad as it could be. Still, I kind of don't want to do any more at all.

I think I have earned a break. People, you must start posting so I can take a break!

Oh, and speaking of cooking and such, I made a yummy batch of homemade chili last night and slow-cooked it until this morning. ND and I ate it for lunch. Le YUM!

I hate learning new phones. I seem to have lost the start button, the today screen and locked it ....

Oops! Time to break out that instruction manual?

the instruction manual skipped a bunch of stuff - but I found an online one that is ... better. Since we now have two tilts all I wanted to do was change the background so mine looks different... that done ...now to see if I can find a decent ring tone... but I want buffy back....

I have to whine for a bit

Whine away, my friend. New technology is tricksy.

but I want buffy back....

with ya there

Also on the new phone annoyance. I've had mine forever and still only use a few features. No time to learn how to do stuff.

I'm working. It seemed like a good plan to do stuff I normally do in the morning tonight. Good thing I did since there was a lot more to do than I anticipated.

Um...so, the joy of the trifecta? I think I bruised a rib or two. Ouch.

Please, don't anyone be funny for a few days. Laughing is the worst.

KT, I feel your grading pain. Lesson plans and journals left to grade for the night. There are other papers to address; however, I just don't have the energy. Tomorrow night I get to write sub plans for Wednesday-Friday since I'll be at SETC in Chattanooga.

It's looking fatal for my laptop. It's looking like we will have to replace the hard drive. The closest computer shop that services Mac's is backed up for more than 2 weeks but 'might' be able to work us in for the minimum amount of work. (meaning, they'll bring a hard drive and install it but not check out anything else) The closest Mac store is in Tampa, 90 min away. I'm flying out of Tampa this week; however, my flight out is before the store opens and I return late on Saturday.

Of course this is happening at the worst possible time. I really needed my computer to be in working order when I'm out of town.
