My busy week

Yesterday I started a week's worth of school work.  The kindergarten teachers are meeting for four days to begin math curriculum mapping and revising our standards based report cards.  I know, I know...I live a wild and crazy life LOL!

I am getting paid for this time (and some time I am putting in next week) so I was thinking of using the money to buy a laptop for Tim.  I am selfish and don't like to always share mine LOL!  My desktop is on it's last leg I am afraid.  It over heats and shuts down a lot.  I'm sure he'll be needed to write reports and do research and it should get him through the three years that he will be there.  I use mine all the time so it will be hard to share.


On another note I got brave the other day and looked in the cabinet to see just how much of my corning ware was broken.  The big ones survived and I think I have three to replace.  Not bad.  I can live with that.  When I get a minute I am going to go online to see what I can find.


take care,
Dawn

Good luck with the curriculum planning Dawn. I know Tim would love a laptop, and it really is hard a lot of the time to have to share when several people use a computer for school/work.

Ah, you're a nice mother. I might get in that line - if you are in a laptop buying mood.♥

I'm so sorry to hear about the broken corning ware, Dawn. I have one piece without a top, or I'd send you some.

So sad to hear about your dishes. You might look at thrift stores, yard sales, Goodwill or Salvation Army. I always find nice stuff at Goodwill. I also buy stuff from Ebay if the price and shipping are the right. Good idea about the laptop!

Hi Dawn, Still working is a bummer but the money is a good thing. If I had kids and had to share my commuter I would not like it very much. I think getting Tim a lap top is a good idea. It might save you a lot of hassle.

I'm glad some of your corning ware survived. I hope you can find the broken pieces to complete your missing ones.

We are going on vacation for a week so I will see you when we return. Don't work to hard.
Love ya, Jeanne

When purchasing a home, put down at least twenty percent of the house's selling price as your down payment. If you put down less than this amount, you will usually be need to purchase private mortgage insurance (PMI). This fee is around half of a percent, which would be about $1000 a year on a $200,000 house.

Adapt your coffee to water ratio in function of the technique you are using to brew your coffee. A Technivorm or a vacuum pot will require you to use more coffee grounds than a French press or a drip machine. Drip machines are actually the cheapest way to make coffee but you will get a better flavor with other techniques.

Don't limit your practice to just playing against the zone defense. The majority of game play might take place in the zone, but that doesn't mean that the opposing team will not try to catch you off guard. Practice with each type of defense so you will know what to expect.

On the off chance that you are careful about utilizing prescription to treat your downturn, attempt talk treatment as a first-line treatment.
