She's actually who I modelled the heroine of Hot Shot after. They're making a movie in Vancouver called Butterfly on a Wheel. Pierce Brosnan is the baddie.MJFredrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06881706931355203700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13241994.post-1144234799042698242006-04-05T05:59:00.000-05:002006-04-05T05:59:00.000-05:00Thanks, Mary Beth.

If it takes more than a day, they lose it!

The day just flew. We have a rule in our class, though, that you can't say the day's going by fast....that jinxes it. So if a kid says "fast," the others say, "He said the F-word!" I'm waiting for the principal to walk in on that one. <BR/><BR/>Stacy, I probably won't start marking Xs till May. I really do love my kids, but I'm ready for ME time.<BR/><BR/>Olga, beautiful and HOT weather! I hope I can find something for my son and I to do so we don't just sit around the AC...okay, so HE doesn't just sit around the AC. <BR/><BR/>Ugh, Rene! Y'all probably go back after Labor Day, right? After next year, we're supposed to, as well, but now we go back mid-August.MJFredrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06881706931355203700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13241994.post-1144174806203286792006-04-04T13:20:00.000-05:002006-04-04T13:20:00.000-05:00Geez, we haven't even had spring break yet.

ARGH! Three in the house whining about how bored they are. The fights. The messes they don't clean up. The phone ringing off the hook. The revolving front door. Do you see why I LOVE the school year?<BR/><BR/>TanyaShesawriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14904247751806210823noreply@blogger.com
