Sorry about that. I'm back and ready to roll and cause the trouble that I normally stir up.
How is that mama guinea Terri?
Did you lose time After drinking your moon shine? I'm going to check news reports for fire breathing dragons!!! With Satin's army running after it!,,
I think I lost time and brain cells.
It has been quiet on the thread! Watch what I can do...
I'm going to stir the pot!!! However, it will be on something that I need to learn about. I'll post below...
I am going to "blue kote" my golden laced polish this morning...poor girl! Hopefully that will work.
Oh, I beg to differ. I am NO example for anyone. My weakness are fires, mixing wines, smarty pants, i don't hold my tongue (smart mouth), wreckless, borderline hoarder when I find too many sales or free stuff and too much more to mention. I hope no one follows along in my footsteps. I'm a recipe for disaster. 
The best school I have dealt with outside of private was a magnet school. Those I think are great. We lived in Texas near the Arkansas border at the time, all kids could choose from one of 5 at each school level on either side of the border. I choose elementary (pre-k to 5Th there) for my daughter at the science and math biased one. The school had it where the parents would come into the classroom once a month and discuss the teaching plan for the next month and what the parents would like to see change. These were public schools but the competition between them kept them going strong, parents were required to participate at least in sending letters if they didn't attend these meetings. I think that keeping everyone informed helped form a better school for everyone involved.I agree about the lack of parental involvement. Even in the private schools you see it, though not as much as some public. I don't like to paint with a broad brush. We have those parents that want to be "big fish in small pond"...they are the ones that don't do anything, because it's beneath them. Me, I don't want to "chair" anything, just tell me what needs to be done, and let's figure out how to do it.
When my oldest was going into kindergarten, I went to see the public school for our area, I cried! Then I looked up and saw that they were almost on "academic probation". (The school is doing better now, however, I'm not moving the kids. It's a strange distance thing that's hard to explain. Their public school is 18 miles in the opposite direction of where we work/ build. I have factored in gas cost into our private school equation). At that point, I started looking at private. I found the one I loved, then found out how much it cost and cried again. Then I found the one we are at. It's not fancy. My husband and I bust our butts to be able to afford it. Overall I like what I see, and this new "stupid Math" will change. The school is really good about listening to the parents. We just have to make enough noise.
Need at least one in every group...You locked them up alreaight,. it's just that you have a smart butt that unlcokced the coop and let everyone out.
Glad that the bunnies are back and doing ok.
Me? Leader?Oh, I beg to differ. I am NO example for anyone. My weakness are fires, mixing wines, smarty pants, i don't hold my tongue (smart mouth), wreckless, borderline hoarder when I find too many sales or free stuff and too much more to mention.

You have a great insurance if they offer free gyms. Ours ofrers $25.00 monthly cost and free enrollment. I wish ours offered free. Let me know how the gentle yoga was.
That's what her maid is for!
They seem like nice people...I just wouldn't want something that big...I don't have a maid (unless I put a uniform on).Too old for that!
The cash registers used to crash at least once a week where I managed and people thought it was cruel that I would make them preform simple adding and subtracting as part of an interview. It is more common than you think. I once had a girl that couldn't do it WITH a calculator. Needless to say she didn't get hired.Speaking of simple math, I was at TSC the other day and a cashier had an override and the custmoer was owed change. The male cashier had to call the manager on shift to subtract what the customer was owed. I asked the other cashier was he serious and could he not subtract. She looked at me and shruged her shoulders. I could not belive it. I shook my head in amazement. What has happened to our kids where they can't subtract.
