February RESTLESS!

Twitch, jerk, sniff blink, twitch...can anyone say cabin fever? Have I ever mentioned how much February is my least favorite month. Ever. Every year February hits and I WANT TO RUN AWAY! Okay, I'm going to la la land now. It has a warm, sunny beach and not a soul around for miles and miles and miles... Be back with drool runnin' down my chin in a while...you know where to find me if you don't get ahold of me sooner.

Medical Terminology

Sadly enough I woke up this morning to Kail bounding in my room shouting "Mama! Erika has froat!" GROAN! This is NOT good news at our house, it means somebody is huggin' the porcelain. Anyway, in the off chance you ever come to my house and hear any of the following medical terminology, I want you to know exactly what it is you might be going home with. First, "froat" is my least favorite illness. It is also known as the stomach flu, but according to Kail it is your throat stuck down in your stomach trying to come out, thus it is "throat" (pronounced froat). Second, I don't know if any of you have ever had "Stripe Throat" (aka Strep Throat), but it is definately not fun. Third, be sure that if you ever end up at the "Postodontist"(that would be Orthodontist to most lay people) that you never allow him/her to perform "C3PR" on you there. The Star Wars version of CPR is highly unsuccesful at anything but leaving you feeling like you had a light-saber crammed.......never mind. And last but not least, be sure to wear socks with your shoes because you never want to end up with "Bleachers" on your heels. They are far worse than blisters. "Foof-whee" (Whew) I'm glad I have that off my chest!

Go Honey! Go Honey!

I've waited and waited for Honey to announce her latest achievement, but since she hasn't decided to share it...I WILL! Honey was given the Heart of the Community Teacher of the Year award! CONGRATULATIONS to Honey! (Why in the world she was shocked to receive it is beyond me! Everyone knows she's a gifted teacher! I should know...I had her four times in High School myself!) Way to go Mims!
