#56/365--Sunday's Pic
...I got so overwhelmed with boxes...
...and sickness...
I completely forgot
to post yesterday's pic
so
I'm posting it backwards...
Mikey's team
took Second Place
in the tournament
over the weekend

#55.5/365--Headache, Part 2
Happy Month-i-versary!
Two months later
...and...
(left: 12/25; right: 2/25)
...not much has changed...
As you know,
we are in an
apartment now...
...and I've been...
...requesting items...
...as we need them...
...from the...
Restoration Facility
My most recent request was:
heating pad
(Mikey's back...and now...mine)
coffee mugs
(the ones they provided me with are teacups...tiny)
my vacuum cleaner
iHome docking clock
(my family is sharing a charging cord)
kindle e-reader
books
(because I want to finish the book
I was reading when the fire occured)
Crock-pot
...and...
Scentsy
...just wanting things to be...
...more like home...
Today, on the
...two-month-i-versary...
they delivered...
...31...
(Thirty-one)
boxes
...which contained...
...oh and also...
(mine is the one on the right...
so...
...I'm spoiled, ok??)
also, some coffee mugs
plastic cups
Crock-pot
and
of those 31 boxes...
...25...
(Twenty-Five)
were full of
...books...
I went through every box tonight
...and ended up with...
Four boxes full of books
for Half-Price Books
($$)
Two boxes of
"etc."
to donate
Two boxes of
children's books
for my classroom
...and...
I am still missing
the book
I was reading
...the night of the fire...
...but...
I have a closet-full
of...
...you guessed it...
...books...
We love to read, ok?
#55/365--Headache, Part 1
...my baby girl came into my room
around 3:30 this morning...
...crying...
She had a 101 fever
achy
sore throat
headache
stomachache
...crying...
and my girl
doesn't complain much.
She tested negative for everything
...but...
Dr says could be flu
just too early
to register on rapid flu test
so...

#54/365--Yay for Baseball
...first game...
...first tournament of the season...
...more normalcy...
...I'm beginning to think....
...that normalcy...
...is a fallacy...
...after all...
...what is normal, really?
Home is, in fact, where the heart is...
and...
...have heart, will travel...
...to...
...and fro...
from hotel to apartment
to baseball field...
...and eventually...
...home again, home again...

#53/365--More Cuteness and also Grossness
...my mom came to visit...
...she brought my sweet...
...Sandy-dog...
...we are missing this girl...
...so much!!
I could have
just
...NOT...
posted the second part of this...
...but...
it's been driving me crazy...
Sunday, I got groceries...
...and...
...after unloading it all...
I couldn't find
the bologna
...that I purchased...
...anywhere...
I double checked the van
I looked in the refrigerator
...several times...
(because I know me...)
I looked in the pantry
I looked in the freezer
I double-checked
my receipt
then checked the van again....
...today...
...nearly a week later...
I found it.
It had fallen
out of the sack...
...under our...
"baseball" chairs
...since the fire...
...you could call my van...
...a mobile storage unit...
I have everything in there...
...including...
...but not limited to...
...socks...
...books...
...videos...
...a fork...
...an enormous bag of...
...dog food...
which was what
we had gone outside to get
when we found
the bologna.
...but...
Who am I kidding?
My van
has always been
...a mobile storage unit...

#50/365--Unexpected Visitor, #2
...I open my classroom door...
...to a bright, smiling face...
...she hands me a gift bag...
"...what's in here?" I ask...
...to which she replies...
"...my hamster!!"
Of course, I'm thinking,
how cute--one kid
brought his live hamster yesterday
so she is bringing
her stuffed hamster today....
...but...
...inside...
...there is movement..
...scratching...
...bedding...
...and a live creature...
...guess you can't see it...
...but underneath the pink bedding...
...and pink mitten...
was
actually
not a hamster...
but...
.a.white.mouse.
You can't make this stuff up....
...and this...
...is why...
...I teach...

#49/365--Unexpected Visitor
....for the record...
...the student asked...
...and I didn't really give an answer...
...I was not really wanting to give an answer...
...It was sort of the moment...
...when you hope the student gets distracted...
...so you don't have to say no...
...normally it wouldnt be a big deal...
...but I just haven't been in the mood...
...to entertain...
...too much going on...
...too much to get done...
...no time in the curriculum...
...and I wasn't sure...
...it was a for real pet...
...I wasn't asked by the parent...
...and kids...
...well, they just stretch the truth sometimes...
...but...
...there he was...
...I mean "she"...
....and she was mean...
...she hissed at me...
so she stayed hidden under her bedding all day
until it was time to go home.
...And then she left
the same way she came...
