What happened!?

Suri's Burn Book

Hey, it's Friday. You worked hard all week, especially considering it is the week after Thanksgiving. You gave all you could give and now it is time for a laugh.

Suri's Burn Book

People, this maybe the funniest thing I have ever read. Introduced to me by my pal Susannah (who typically can get me hooked on anything that wastes my time), Suri's Burn Book reminds me that the cattiness in girls doesn't start in middle school. No, no, leave it to a five-year old.

Some of my favorites? (All pictures and quotes courtesy of Suri's Burn Book)

"Tom really wants us to start pairs-skating competitively. I told him not until his triple toe loop improves and only if our team name can be The Princess and the Pea."

(In regards to the William/Kate/Baby Rumors)"I’ve been trying to prepare myself for this pregnancy, but I fear I’ll never be ready. Thank goodness I had this panic room built."

"I swear, I was just holding this for a friend."

Don't you want to read more!? Of course you do!

I should feel proud. You are going to get NOTHING done at work today.

1st Grade- Every Monday I ask the kids what they did over the weekend. At the beginning of the year, every student said, "I went to the pool." This continued for many weeks until I knew the students were not swimming because it was too cold. Now they all tell me they went sledding at the park. This weekend it was 70 degrees.

2nd Grade- We are learning about charts and graphs. We took a poll to see the class's favorite subject- choices being Science, Reading, Math, and Art. Art won big time and not one person voted for math:( I was shocked, so asked the students why they didn't like math. One responded, "Maybe you should do more art."

2nd Grade- Test question- Estimate the length of this line. Student's response? "Ruler"

3rd Grade- Question- Which property makes 3 x 7 = 7 x 3 true? Response? "Yes-21."

4th Grade- Test Question- Write a word problem for 28 x 4. Student's response- "How can you solve 28 x 4?"

4th Grade- Question- What is another way you could solve 24 x 14? Student's Response- "Use a calculator."

5th Grade- We were reviewing our unit tests to prepare for the retest. After one student looked at her error I asked her what she would do differently next time. Her response?- "Get the right answer."

5th Grader- "I love your class. I now learn math more better." (Thank goodness I don't teach grammar.)

First Day of School...Sorta

It is the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! Sorta.

Teachers go back today. Even though summer was too short, and I cannot believe it is over, I am excited to go back. We have several new teachers- including two new teachers in fifth grade! However, I am beyond sad that two of my close co-workers will not be there :(

In honor of the first day of school, a little humor- it's the only way to survive a school year.

Oh, and the one-shoulder dress?

Me and Hylan

I went with earrings :) (and a great elephant cuff that you can't see)

Mullishmuse

One day, while exploring the world of Etsy in the search of something vintage or hand-made, I came across a peculiar little hobby. Finger Puppets. However, these were not the common finger puppets of cows, chickens, and Farmer Brown. No, these were the puppets of influential icons.

How fun would it be to teach children about Donald Trump??

Or the lovely and fashionable Anna Wintour?

Willie Nelson might get a little tricky.

What a perfect gift for Will and Kate!

These might be a birthday gift for Husband and his BF Tim. They actually made me go to this "interesting" concert.

All are available through Mullishmuse. Which is your favorite?

Fashion is Danger

If you're having a "case of the Mondays," maybe this will cheer you up...
