"We can have lots of good fun that is funny!"

Recently, our school had a day that the students could dress up as their favorite Dr. Seuss character. Can you guess whom E chose? She has loved The Cat in the Hat for years. She even wanted to wipe her feet on the mat to show that the Cat was neat. I told her the picture couldn't capture that.



One last thing, I have some advice. Mother: "'Did you have any fun? Tell me. What did you do?' And Sally and I didn't know what to say...What would you do if your mother asked you?" Always tell the truth!

Twinkle Toes

Last week, Nan started Dance. It was my last first dance class. I wanted to cry. Nan loved every minute of it!

Nan had a great time since she had so many friends, like Maddie and Shaylee.

Taking BIG steps with Miss Jessica and Allison.

Nan's favorite parts were dancing with the scarves and twirling the ribbons.


Every day Nan asks me how many more days until dance. I love her enthusiasm. This spring all three will be in the recital. I am counting the days until that!

Weight Loss Wednesday

I am borrowing this idea from my cousin, JLK, but it is something I need to do.

Okay, I will just say it. I need to loss weight! I had a hard time losing weight after Nan. Then Christy had her great exercise group and I got to an acceptable weight. I keep it off for a year, then suddenly I gained it all back in one month. I figured that since it came on so weird, it would just go away too. NO!

So, now it is time to face reality and start doing something about. I love to watch Biggest Loser. That show is so inspiring; so it is time that I get inspired and off the couch. I figure if I put it out there for you all to know, ask me about, encourage, nag,... I will be forced to be more accountable. Plus, I had success this week. I had the stomach flu and have lost several pounds. (Save yourself the trouble of writing comments about how that doesn't count. I know.)

PS I think I have noticed another problem. my last two entries were about TV shows. By the way NAB, I know you have survived 35 years without MONK, but that's because you don't know what you are missing:) You have to love cousins!

Say it isn't true!!!

I was watching the season finale of "Monk" and they announced that this summer's season is the last. My heart is breaking. That is the one show I follow faithfully. What will the world be like without Monk? I don't think I want to live in a world without Monk!

Only 16 more episodes!

Miracles Never Cease

Yes, that is right! Team Z finally has a computer again. We have been computerless for four months. I never would have thought it would be that long, but...Well, at least we have a functioning computer. Yea!

Blog on Pause!

Karen's computer is broken, so she will not be blogging until their new one is purchased! So, don't email her because she can't get her email either!
