Tuesday's Stuff...
So I went to an informational meeting hosted by the teachers association last night. I wondered if there was anything new or different about contract negotiations since I no longer have kids in the school system. Nope...same old same old. I'm glad I went though.. I got to see and chat with lots of old friends; teachers as well as other community members. Nothing like a good contract dispute to bring people out on a cold winter's night. The most I got out of the meeting was one teacher declaring I must be the Dick Clark of parents. I always liked him...he would have gotten my money anyway.
Today I took down the Christmas tree and wrapped up the skating flamingos for another year. Amazing how an entire tree's worth of needles can fit in the vacuum cleaner bag! No need for air freshener...I can vac with those in there for months and still be reminded of Christmas. Ok Ok..I'll also still be finding needles from the tree for months as well. (Heck I vacuumed up Easter Grass and I don't believe we've had Easter baskets here for a few years now.) Notice how you never quite get the room back to "normal" after the Christmas tree leaves?
I'm going to a weight loss meeting tonight sponsored by my exercise place. In preparation, I've been eating everything in sight for 2 days now. Should be just about done cleaning out the cupboards by the time I go to the meeting. I think I'll wear my big jeans so it looks like I'm already well on my way to weight loss nirvana...just going for added support..;-D
Herb Alpert is on the oldies sation on my radio...hhhmmm...since when did all the oldies originate in my high school days rather than my brothers' ( much older brothers). hhhmmm I seem to be fudging it a bit...That Herb Alpert ( this Guy's in Love with You) song is from college days...ouch.
Update...I asked said wonderful HS English teacher about "To Go Missing" He agreed it was NOT proper English and the one that annoys him lately is the lack of periods after Mr..( or wouldn't there be another period there...?

Nope not going to happen...I can't and won't follow that diet thank you very much..I will just continue doing what I'm doing...I'm down a more than a size from last year so it's working.
