It was a beautiful afternoon, in spite of the mud from rains earlier in the week.
And, of course, what's a trip to a muddy corn maze without someone falling in the mud?
Um, make that TWO somebodies...
It was a great time!

Corn Maze
Last week we went to the corn maze with a group from our church. It was a lot of fun.
It was a beautiful afternoon, in spite of the mud from rains earlier in the week.
And, of course, what's a trip to a muddy corn maze without someone falling in the mud?
Um, make that TWO somebodies...
It was a great time!

Two weeks down, one to go!
Well, I'm almost done with my online class. Only one discussion question and one 1500 word research paper to go. I will be soooo glad when it's done. I'm seriously contemplating doing no more "real" classes and just sticking with the pud computer ones. It doesn't help that some of the info I need isn't there. For example, in week one we were supposed to critique a school crisis plan using the provided rubric (a rubric is a set of grading criteria). Well, a bunch of us were frantically posting on the message board that we couldn't find the rubric. After a day or two, the instructor finally realizes it somehow "got deleted" from the system. Aaaaaaack! I'm much too easily excitable for this sort of thing. Add to that my first-born tendancy to obsess over things that aren't sone "right", and, well, you have a leetle beet of stress. (Of course, we won't discuss the fact that I'm just now starting my research paper...) Anyhoo, busy week on tap - N's conferences (and book fair, and conference dinners for which I'm setting up/tearing down, bringing dessert, and picking up the fried chicken) and A's field trip. Should have some cute pics from that one.
Funny story:
Two weeks ago A's teacher told me about a playground "incident". It seems that a child rushed over and said, "A's crying!" The teacher rushed over to find A lying on her back on the ground sobbing. The teacher thought she had fallen off the playground equipment. When she asked if A was hurt, A replied, "No one will play with me!!!" The funniest thing was, she had a posse of about 10 kids gathered around her by this point! Never a dull moment with that girl...
