Monday morning in kindergarten


I helped out in Keith's class this morning - the usual Monday morning drill. The kids had to think of something that they were thankful for, draw a picture of it and then write a sentence about it. Keith was pretty grumpy this morning -- he said he didn't know what he was thankful for and couldn't think of anything to be thankful for.... what does that mean to me? I think we need to help that boy realize how darn lucky he is and help him figure out how to appreciate what he has. Any suggestions? Let me know, please.


Randy has tutoring after school today and I'm hoping that he doesn't come home with the usual amount of homework, since this is a short week. They'll be off Thursday and Friday. Randy pulled out a tooth this morning before breakfast - I believe that would be tooth number 5. I'll have to check the time capsule to be sure. I guess this means that the tooth fairy will be visiting our house tonight. That's always exciting!

I worked this past weekend, (I barely got to see my boys- I don't even really know what they did this weekend - I'll have to ask them later) since I'll be off on Thursday and Friday. I thought that we would have been extremely busy, but we weren't. I think they'll be slammed on Wednesday with all those people who want their hair done for Thanksgiving. Last night after we closed up the shop, we had a rep from Clinique come in and we did some skin care techniques and make-up makeovers. It was a little scary, but since the make-up washes right off, it wasn't so bad. Unfortunately they were taking pictures - I'm not sure what they plan on doing with those pictures - probably black mail - LOL!

Our Thanksgiving meal has been ordered! The only thing I will be making is the pumpkin roll and possibly some nut cups. Two more days til turkey day. Friday we'll be putting up our Christmas tree and possibly decorating outside. I can't imagine going shopping on black Friday, but good luck to all who are brave enough to venture out!

35 days until Christmas!!

Thanks for the comments! At least I know a couple of people actually look at the blog! :-)

I was hoping to see updates of your "makeover" - guess I'll have to wait until Wednesday.
