Saturday, November 4, 2023 Was alive and well in Hudson! 🙂

Friday, November 3, 2023 Keith saw on Facebook that the wife of one of his friends was in a community theater production, so we decided to go. There were over 100 kids in the show, and they announced that everyone had at least one line – and they did! There were bats (man, kids can

Thursday, November 2. 2023 I subbed in special ed today and was treated to a master class in language arts teaching. It was fabulous. The teacher I subbed for team teaches for two hours each day with an absolutely terrific teacher. The building sub was in the room when I arrived, and he said he

Wednesday, November 1, 2023 I’m so lucky. I signed up to sub for a language arts teacher at the high school. Then I found out I would be split between her and a social studies teacher. Okay. I like social studies. I got there this morning and found out the two of them were splitting

Friday, October 27, 2023 I am the idea girl. I say things like, “Wouldn’t it be fun to put the blow-up cake in Ellie’s yard the night before her birthday?” Keith then gets to put the blow-up cake in Ellie’s yard the night before her birthday. Think of all the thinking I save him from.

Thursday, October 26, 2023 We went to see the Spelling Bee play tonight at the Artistry Theater in Bloomington. It was terrific. I have never seen it; knew nothing about it! It was hilarious. I forgot to take a picture while we were there, so we stole the picture of the day from their internet
