Fuel and Hotdogs...life is good!

Went to one of my favorite gas stations today. Ernies. Mini-service gas pumping and a Nathan's Hotdog stand. Yes, Kosher hotdogs can be found in Nebraska!

Parent/Teacher Conferences

Stanley kept me company at conferences....resource teacher's table usually has no waiting!

Warmer Weather = Fire Drill!

Found it!

How could one handbag be such a pain in my heinie? For 2 days I could not find my NEW digital camera. Tonight, for the 3rd time I emptied my computer bag, brief case, and purse. Low and behold...there it was. Stuck in the bottom of the purse! Argh.
So, I guess I will take a lesson from this and be persistent. Thank you St. Anthony! I know, I am Jewish...but I take all available help at all times!

Parking Space

I get the best parking space when my husband travels!

Wiimote Interactive Whiteboard

Today I was able to make an interactive whiteboard using a Wiimote and an infrared pen! Cannot wait to try it out with a projector. I am thinking it will work better since I seem to "de-calibrate" every time I jiggle the screen when I touch it. I will keep you updated...

Computers and Coffee

Spent most of the morning planning my professional development presentation. Ah, computers and coffee (actually smoothie)!

Haiti medical mission

Stanley arrived safely back from a medical mission to Haiti. It is nice to know we all can make a difference!

What a day...

Grrrrr.

show me your homepage!

Oh No!

Oh no, Stanley had a terrible accident at the theater and lost a leg...Will take him in for reconstructive surgery tomorrow!

Mr. Magic

Today I was checking my parent's house while they winter in Vegas. I wanted to share a glimpse of my dad's magic room. It is actually a functioning theater with spot lights and sound system. Pretty cool...many fun family evenings! I decided to snap a photo but only had my Treo. A bit grainy but it gets the point across.

Neon Sign on Stage

Stanley and Toots

Stanley went to the Home Show and met Toots the Clown aka my husband!

Mrs. Feldman

I am pleased to say, I do not look exactly look like this...Even though one of my students seems to think so! However, I may need to have a makeup consultation at the Clinique counter!

Stanley's turn to shovel!

Prank or necessity?

I Heart Science!

Today we had a living organism lab. The kids learned so much about the classification system. Teaching with someone who loves science makes life wonderful!

Full Moon Over Middle School...

Full moon today...need I say more about the school day????

Moose at rest

Please forgive the lack of modesty...Moose can sleep any where, any time, any angle!

Button Making

Today I made buttons for a high school show choir. I live an exciting life don't I?

Onion Goggles

Onion goggles. I can't believe it, but they work! At least so far...I chopped a big onion as one of the ingredients of my Moroccan Tomato Soup and I did not shed a tear. I could definitely spell how potent it was, but it did not make me cry. The true test will be during Passover if I chose to help make home made horseradish!

SPED room

I had the chance to tour a new school in our district. This is a SPED room which obviously is a place where people understand the multiple sensory needs students have. So cool!

The best kind of days!

Moments like this make the day so sweet!

And the nominees are...

Back from the nomination ceremony for LPS teacher of the year. Will find out some time in April if I win...

Seasons of storage

I was getting ready to leave today and looked up on my storage shelf...Looks like I am covered for a few seasons! I crack myself up!

What is wrong with this picture?

The last car in the teacher's lot...Does this look familiar to any of you?

3D

Did you watch the 3-D commercials during the Super Bowl? I dare you to wear them to work/school tomorrow!
