I am so out of the habit of calling for a sub! I had to look for my sub folder. No one had it. It wasn't in the office. It wasn't in my bookcase where I saw it last. So, I wrote a different lesson plan for what I hope to be a quiet day in the ESL classroom. Fortunately, our interpreter agreed to... Sign in to see full entry.

This blogger is going down for the count -- STRESS!.....................
As much as I am afraid to upset the apple cart, I just cannot justify leaving you out of what is going on around here lately. Oldest daughter (17) who takes full high school schedule before noon and college classes all afternoon, who works, now having been board-approved as a nurse's aid, at a care...

The Sopranos, watching a miracle happen -- "The Toxins!"..................
Tony Soprano, at the nadir of his mental illness, demonstrates his healthiest mental characteristics. He is in the midst of a revolution of the spirit, a moral rennaissance, where he might change from being a mass murderer, to having the spirit of a parish priest. My brother was over again last...

I was reading about the huge immigration protests around the nation today. Very inspiring. I hope that they are all as peaceful as the one I attended yesterday was. As I stated from my stupor on the couch, typing with my thumbs, it was a prayer service with 10,000 people in attendance. I would not... Sign in to see full entry.

Blogger Struck Dumb Amid Ten Thousand Protesters!.........................
I got back from the rally for fair immigration laws, What a peaceful, inspiring sensation! I stood amid ten thousand other Americans, most born in Mexico. I was stricken dumb at the genuine outpouring of love and concern not only for those living illegally here. But also prayers for those left... Sign in to see full entry.

These Bloggers are going down..............................................
