Saturday, December 14, 2024 I was slightly freaked out when I found out Keith was having a rehearsal this morning. I needed him to do all the running things up and down the stairs while I got the cooking done. We got things pretty well-organized last night, so I was feeling alright about everything. I […]

Friday, December 13, 2024 Happy Taylor Swift’s 35th birthday! She has certainly achieved a lot in her first 35 years, hasn’t she? And she seems to be a nice person. I hope she enjoys her success and her birthday. We shopped and shopped, then cooked and cooked! What fun it is to get ready for

Thursday, December 12. 2024 Our friend, Carla, coordinator of adventures, suggested we go to the Circus Juventas (a St. Paul circus school) Christmas show. We went for Mexican food first, then on with the show. It was super fun. At one point, I whispered, “that looks dangerous,” then laughed, because it ALL looked dangerous. These

Wednesday, December 11, 2024 I stayed up late reading last night, because I had today off. We actually went to bed early, so it was before midnight when I remembered that I had thought of something to get Keith for Christmas. I searched things up and found an amazing sale. I was looking at details

Tuesday, December 10, 2024 I saw Santa today. He was getting into an elevator. It was pretty exciting, to be honest. It’s kinda like seeing Mickey Mouse when he is walking from one place to another at Disney World. You think you are going to be cool about it, but you’re not. I was visiting

Monday, December 9, 2024 Today I subbed for a special ed teacher who team teaches one hour with the math teacher I subbed for Friday. I’m in that class today, and the regular teacher is talking about the assignment from Friday, and what they need to have shown for work before they can turn it

Sunday, December 8, 2024 Keith was up and gone when I woke up this morning. He was playing the flute part of a cantata at a church, as well as lots of other music during the service. Since he was playing a B-flat flugelhorn and flute music is in C, he had to transpose down

Saturday, December 7, 2024 We had Taco John’s breakfast at Alexander’s while visiting the kitties. He is out of town, and we are babysitting. They were both happy to see us. Keith played toys with them. They don’t play at the same time – they take turns. While Sophie was very busy getting the string,

Friday, December 6, 2024 I had a really hard time waking up this morning. I made it to school right on time. I walked into my classroom and a kid followed me. “Mrs. Thompson, are you the sub in here today?”“Yes.” I was still too sleepy to wonder what else I would be doing unlocking
