Well, I do want to know the new cuss words you invented. Just curious. ;)
I love reading your blogs....where do you come up with all of your ideas? I guess that is why you are a super duper teacher and I am not.
Miss H, you're making our "Cow Town" famous! Love each post...read back thru Fair Week.
I can tell when they find your room, they're in for the best year of English class they've ever had.
Love, Los Petersen-SanSalvador
I'm pretty sure Mikey would consider your dunking fair payment for some choice things you have done/said over the years. :) I was sorry to have missed the swimming, but now I think I was safer at home watching Flash Gordon with John.
You've already been so busy! What a great start to your school year! And I'm glad you dress like a "nerd" half the time. :)
