Well it is school day and I am teaching all 3 classes on my own, because the woman I teach with is out of town. It should be fine because we are doing radish seed necklaces and planting some lettuce seeds in pots that will eventually go into the hydroponic bins.
Wait I just realized that it is going to be me 60 kids,dirt and a water hose . oh yeah it is going to be a great morning
mental note: Do not wear good shoes today

But before I can leave for school I have to ask

Today's Question(s):

When was the last time you may of uttered the phrase "whew !! what is that smell" ? I hate to say it, but I was playing cards with my kids, and to give you an idea, I called them the F twins (farts and feet)! My son had the foot problem, and you can probably guess the problem my daughter had!


Extra credit Question:

Back when you went to school, did the school have the toilet paper dispenser that

Gave out the little square sheets ?
Had the "lock type roll" that gave you only 3 sheets ?
The huge roll like you see in many restrooms today ?
A roll on the back of the toilet ?
Honestly, I can't remember! It might have had the huge roll, because people were always clogging up the toilets with toilet paper.


Bonus Question:

When was the last time you could of been accused of " Having way to much time on your hands" ? I am not sure I remember a time like that.......

on the flip side

When was the last time you wanted to say to someone "wow, you have way to much time on your hands" ? Sometimes I want to say that to my dh, but with me working later in the afternoon now, he is getting to take kids to karate and guitar!

Homemade Bread Day - Yum!
Take a Hike Day - Can I tell someone to Take a Hike??
School Pride Day - Woo Hoo!!

Well, as soon as I can get my son out of bed, I am off. It is raining pretty hard here this morning, so I know I am going to have to drag the dogs out the door to go to the bathroom! Have a wonderful day!!!
Ok - It told me my message was too short, so maybe I have to put something after the quote?????

Today's Question(s):

When was the last time you may of uttered the phrase "whew !! what is that smell" ?
I have uttered that phrase probaby on a daily basis. The worse time ever was when I moved to Sitka, AK. A couple days before getting there, the fish processing plant located smack dab in the middle of town had burned to the ground. 650,000 pounds of frozen fish thawed and spoiled. The apartment my dad's employer had for us was only a block away.

Extra credit Question:

Back when you went to school, did the school have the toilet paper dispenser that

Gave out the little square sheets ?
Had the "lock type roll" that gave you only 3 sheets ?
The huge roll like you see in many restrooms today ?
A roll on the back of the toilet ?

Whatever it was must have really been horrid as I seem to have blocked all memory of it. I do remember the airport I worked at in Pasco,WA in the late 70's still used the single square sheets.

Bonus Question:

When was the last time you could of been accused of " Having way to much time on your hands" ?
I get accused of this quite often. Being one who enjoys good natured ribbing and practical jokes, I am always on the lookout for some unsuspecting target.

on the flip side

When was the last time you wanted to say to someone "wow, you have way to much time on your hands" ?

Probably on a daily basis. Even though in reality my sister works very hard and is very good at what she does, being her brother, it is my duty to keep reminding her she is an overpaid underworked Government employee.
