I want candy!


Hi, my name is Ginger and I'm a chocoholic. I admit it. I have the biggest sweet tooth ever. That makes this time of year wonderful for me. All the stores have out all kinds of candy for Halloween. Of course I stock up even though I can't remember when the last time was that I actually had trick or treaters come to my door. LOL!


Here's a goodie for everyone out there that has a sweet tooth...

I don't carve pumpkins


I don't carve pumpkins because I can't. I don't have a steady hand, a creative mind or the patience for the mess. I look at all the carved pumpkins I see and I admire the people who took the time to create such wonders. I'd love to see pictures of your carved pumpkins, please share them so I can highlight them here.


Here's a goodie for your pumpkin pages...

What's your story?


Have you ever noticed how the Halloween costume you wear tells something about where you are in your life at the moment? Maybe you're feeling powerful like a superhero? Maybe you feel special like a princess? Maybe you feel a little wicked? Tell me, what's your story going to be this Halloween?


Here's a goodie to help tell your story...

Being true


The world is a mess right now! Where I work three teachers were told that they no longer had jobs. Isn't that awful? You're working one day and the next you're not. I feel so bad for them. To make up for the lost teaching positions other teachers had to be moved around. They had to give up their classrooms and the students that they had already bonded with to be moved to another grade level. They have to greet new students that had already bonded with another teacher and try their best to teach them a curriculum they aren't familiar with. They have to do this without the raises we were promised in our contracts but with all the pressures to make sure their new students perform well on standardized testing.


Somedays it's hard to remember why we became teachers in the first place. We are no longer shown the respect the teachers of our youth were shown. We must accomplish more than ever before and we must do this with less money, time and supplies than ever before.


Somedays it would be easy to quit. Easy to walk away. Who would miss us anyway? We only hear from parents when they aren't happy and when budget cuts need to be made it's the classroom teachers that feel the pain first.


The days that make quitting seem like a great idea are the days that we have to remind ourselves that we are where we are needed. We are making a difference. We do matter. These are the days that we have to be true to ourselves.

For Lisa...


Lisa, here's the quote you requested. I'd love to see what you do with it. As a matter of fact, I'd love to see what anyone who snags it does with it. This blog could use some decorations and I can't think of any better decorations than your pages with my word art.

Now, here's the goodie for Lisa and anyone that fishes or knows someone who does...

Shopping


Well, I played all day yesterday. The weather didn't always co-operate so I did some of my playing inside the mall. It was a tough day, but I managed to survive. LOL! My wallet survived too. It's empty now, but it survived. LOL!


If you know what I'm talking about here's a little goodie for you...

No more doing things that have to be done. From now on I'm spending my Saturdays playing. I hope you'll join me and get out and have some fun today.

Today was fun!




At school we celebrated Johnny Appleseed's birthday with the kids. It was so much fun and it wore me out! LOL!

Mondays


I'm so glad it's not Monday anymore. Mondays always get me down---except when it's summer vacation. Have you ever thought about who you would be if you could be someone else? I've decided that I want to be Barbie. She has everything. The best house, the best car, a cute boyfriend. I bet Mondays never get Barbie down. So, who would you be?


Here's a goodie for anyone that also wants to be Barbie...

Cooking


I don't cook. I mean I REALLY don't cook. If you invite me to a party you'll want me to buy something not cook something to bring. If you come to my house, you won't want to come for dinner. I really don't cook! I don't enjoy doing it and I'm not any good at it. I have tons of recipe books and kitchen gadgets. My friends all share their cooking experiences with me, but it doesn't matter because I don't cook.


If you share my dislike for cooking or know someone who does I've got a little goodie for you that you can download here...
