Proof

Proof that my friend Ro needs to start her own blog.

Her husband Jim told me today that he caught himself on fire yesterday.

You can’t make stuff like that up.

Just Thinking

Just a thought…but what would public schools be like today if “Christian” schools had never been started?

Stumped

I have tried three times today to write something on this dumb blog. I got nothing.

I think I need a Blog Break.

See you next week!

It’s a four cup of coffee kind of day

I haven’t been sleeping well at all this week. Last night I had the mother of all nightmares. I was driving down a steep road with my window open. As I come to a stop sign at the bottom of the hill there is a girl waiting for me. She has in her hands….a red playground ball. She beams me in the head with it at close range.

I woke up terrified of children throwing things at me. I woke Larry up too because I knew he would want to know I had a scary dream.

I fell back into a fitful sleep. The next dream I had was the grandmother of all nightmares. I was a 6th grade teacher at Inter-City. It was the first day of school and I had done nothing to prepare. All of the last teacher’s things were still there piled in the corner. The desks were all over the room. And here is where the dream gets scary. I keep arranging and rearranging the desks and asking the kids the to line their desks up.

And they are not listening.

Every time I change the desks they turn around the other way.

Finally, I preach a sermon on obedience and God’s love for them. They are all stunned and immediately line their desks up.

Thankfully the bell rang and I could get up.

Did I Really Need to Know That?

Overheard at the Office today:

A fire alarm goes off.

Five minutes later: Attention! The fire alarm was a false alarm set off by a bag a burnt popcorn in the microwave on the second floor.
