Prancing and Fragging

It's time to wrap up the second week of school in the fragmented form with Friday Fragments! I am so in love with Friday. And three day weekends. Truly, they should both come around more often.


Half-Past Kissin' Time


Most of you have probably seen the videos on YouTube all about Prancercising. Well, the other day, a most wonderful teacher and dear friend at school posted this video for me on Facebook:


I haven't laughed so hard in quite a while. Good grief. Several of us have had a lot of fun with this and I will spare y'all some of our comments.

However, I will not spare you this. Another teacher and dear friend entered the lab yesterday with her students doing this:


Our principal was standing right outside the lab doors. And it wasn't even Friday!

I told y'all we were exhausted. And now, delirium has set in. Or happy pills. Regardless, thank God for three day weekends. :)

Enjoy your weekend, y'all!

First Week of School Fragments

It only seems appropriate to participate in Mrs. 4444s' Friday Fragments after the first week of school. Besides, it's fun! Even when I'm a day late. Story of my life. Ha!


Half-Past Kissin' Time

Yes, the first week of school has come and gone. Not in a flash. But it is gone. I don't know a single soul at our school who isn't completely exhausted with the exception of the students who were still up and running strong on their way out of school yesterday afternoon. The faculty and staff, though we wanted to run out full of energy, barely made it to our cars to drive home and collapse. Nevertheless, the week was fantastic! Every single class I saw (K-5) was a pure delight. Our students this year are wonderful! Of course, ask me if I still feel that way around December...

A teacher at our school challenged the rest of us to the ALS ice bucket challenge. I didn't make it in the 24 hour limit so I am donating. Would I have had the bucket of ice water dumped on my head. Sure. But it's not easy to get two people - one to dump one to video- when everyone is working and does not live at home anymore. I'd rather donate anyway. Dumping ice water on our heads won't help the cause other than to spread the word. Pretty sure it's been spread.

Tucker has not been happy that school has resumed. He sits and waits for me daily. Luckily, DoodleBug is home still and provides company for my sweet pup. The first thing I do when I get home is get in the floor and get mauled by Tuck. 

FYI: Remember that my bestie from high school wrote a murder mystery novel, OverTheTop? Well, she did. I wrote a review and hosted a giveaway for a free copy. And the winner is: Gail from At The Farm! Gail is aware and I will be getting that in the mail to her ASAP. It's a car issue that I won't go into since it sends me into a rant every time I think about it. 

Anyway- Congrats, Gail!!

And, thanks to Mrs. 4444s for hosting Friday Fragments!

Have a great weekend, y'all!
