ew...sounds appetizing.

Did I mention I'm making food from my cupboard so it's mashed taters-instant

and spagetti and sauce....mmmm intestines....


So um, did the duck make it or was it gone?

Poor ducky.

It unfortunately expired on it's own.
or maybe fortunately.

Here is a small sample of what I am reading:

37 The action in both sentences is conveyed by the verb painted. The agent is Diego Rivera, and the object is that mural. Both sentences yield the same seman-tic analysis, even though they differ grammatically. Our examples provide a sim-ple illustration of a complex and interesting linguistic theory, just to give you a taste of one way linguists have attempted to characterize how languages operate to convey meaning. The exciting part is that thousands of person hours have been spent trying to understand how language works, but even though it is not yet well understood, children the world over have no trouble acquiring their native tongues, and many become bilingual or multilingual! This discussion of linguistic subsystems is intended to give you an idea of the complex nature of language proficiency. Figure 2.1 summarizes the subsystems of language, with pragmatics as the overarching aspect. This depiction illustrates our view that all language subsystems serve the purpose of communication, for the prime impulse to use language is the need to communicate.

Michelle, pony did not stay at the new home. Remember the part when they tried to say he had bad hip etc and I felt they were trying to get a free pony, so I had my son drive his vehicle over there, hook up to my trailer and I loaded my pony up and brought him home!!

Thanks Belle. Yesterday I fed 562 students, today I only fed 501. Fridays are minimum day, so I suppose some skip lunch.

Orchy

My flip flops smell like poo.

Laree is taking us to Napa, as in CA? That's not too super far from me, I didn't click on link, cuz I be slow internet.

Once upon a time, two students drew pics for me saying Best lunch Lady.
One of the students wrote Best Lundy, I thought that was so cute, a boo boo, but still so cute, so I am a lundy!!

I have never eaten menudo.

I want a bean burro

Maaaapppppple!!

Well, at least I am not barfing.
And I don't have jury duty Monday, but I have to call again Monday night.

Congrats on your new office space. It's been awhile...are they moving y'all to a bigger space? or did you get a promotion that calls for a new office? I can't recall the reason behind the move.

How are things on the home front? Ken find a new job, yet?

Your grandbabies are darling! My little Jacob has started walking.

Thank you!!!!! No job, but he is school full time with grants and school loans. In this job market, finishing his degree was the smartest choice. He is doing some side work building websites which is bringing a pretty good income, so we are fairly well set.

Bigger space? I gotta find my office pic for you. We are so cramped it is not even funny!

There are two of us in that space. We had a new facility built that is supposed to serve the transit authority's needs for the next 35 years. My office is kind of small, but we will have a seperate file room and a room for supplies, etc. None of that stuff has to be stored in my office anymore!!!!!
