Christmas is coming....and I am going HOME!!

...as you can imagine....i am ecstatic about going home for Christmas...can hardly wait to see the smiling faces of my daughter, son-in-law and hold my precious little grandson in my arms...all will be well then!!!

...time has flown again...never did get my 'stolen' binder back but did manage to ask the students for the classwork and homework that i had marked and had to re-quiz them (much to their chagrin)so managed to get my marks in...albeit late...

..as of today, dec. 13, we only have 2 more teaching days which will basically be a write off...the kids are already 'wrangy' (how do you spell that word??)...can hardly wait...these months have flown by thankfully and i hope that the rest of the year after christmas will do likewise...

...the weather continues to be fairly mild during the day...about mid 20's i would suspect...lovely...still warm enough to be in the sun which is where i hope to be tomorrow...FANTASTIC!!...it will be enough to come home to the cold and snow...hope we have a white christmas...nothing like it!!...then come back to more temperate conditions...

..a funny little anecdote...one of my girls who gives me a hard time in class told me she loved me the other day...so i thanked her and told her she smelled nice and asked what kind of perfume she was wearing...she said givenchy...so i said i liked it so she said she would bring me some the next day...AND SHE DID!!!...one of my other students gave me perfume a month or so ago too because she said i told her i liked it...don't remember...there are some perks of the job!!...now if they would only throw MONEY!!...tee, hee!!

...as of next week at this time, i will be at the airport with a few of the other canucks who are going home and we will be waiting for our united airlines plane to take us to washington, d.c. and then on to toronto...can harldy wait...7 more sleeps..sooooo looking forward to seeing many of you when i am there...

...time to get some beauty sleep....zzzzzzz
