NHL Coyotes Goalie....

Mikael Tellqvist #32 ..he does such a good job protecting the goal. Dh and I got to see him live this past saturday. He kept the other team from scoring a goal 37 times. I have to say this much if the coyotes get rid of him they will be loosing a really good player.

Even last night, they tried to give a break but the Sharks were a good team. So, they put Tellqvist back in. I thought it was a good call.

Now, if the coyotes could play like they did last night but win a a little more. They could raise their NHL numbers. They don't play bad but its a contact sport. Come on...guys...you are suppose to get a little rough. You need to protect yoru goal a little more. Give your goalie a little bit of a break.

Now everyone leave a howling comment if you like nhl. I don't care if you don't root for the coyotes or if you do.

My Creative Dh

Okay, my dh claims he has no creativity running through his blood. I have to say different when it comes to christmas decorating. When we had a wonderful hugh house he would decorate it from head to toe with decorations. He would only ask for assistance if something was just not hitting him right. This year we are are renting. The space is so much smaller than we are use to. So we made a decision not to decorate as much as we had in the past. Plus, a hugh tree just would not fit in our living area.

My dh went to target. He got a prelit tree a very nice small one. He went searching for a tree topper that would not make our little joy of the season fall over. He got discouraged until he found this really cool three dimesional red star made out of metal. He said he just couldn't figure out how to make it "stay" in place as a tree topper. I said to him just use the extra long piece usually for a angle but bend it through the ornament and it will stay in place. We tried it on the store display tree first. It rocked. We put up the tree Saturday evening. It rocked again.

When it comes to christmas my dh is wonderfully creative. Here's to you honey. You rock dude!

Update on Turkey Trot

Okay, I made it in 31 minutes for 3 miles. I almost didn't make it at the end but I pushed through it. The rain stopped just before the race started. I am so happy I did it.

Turkey Trot Run

Ugh, its raining here since yesterday. I really don't want to get out in the rain and run this race. Expect I have been training for it since I first moved to this town. Needless to say, I have sat in my jammies long enough. I now must be getting ready to leave for it.

I will update everyone later on my time and how I felt.

Weekend Update

Okay this weekend has flown by. Now, my laundry is almost caught up, my house pretty much cleaned, and I have been working on stuff digitally. Exciting is the part that I have been working on stuff digitally.I created part of new word art for a challenge and started a challenge that is paint a background with paint bucket then use brushes to decorate. Hopefully if they come out and I get good comments on them. I will release them later as freebies say an word art element and maybe a christmas paper pack.

Update on Sickness Status

Okay I had bronchitis for over a month. I finally got in to see the doctor I wanted to see when I first came down with the stuff. This doctor could not believe all the stuff the other doctors refused to do. After the doctor saw one of my children for an allergy attack it occurred to me that I might want to try new allergy medicine as well. I called the doctor's office up and she gave a trial pack to see if it would work.

All I have to say is after getting new medicine and having a doctor that new how to treat my bronchitis. I am back on the road to recovery.

November to Remember..

I thought that the start of the new year would be hard. Ugh, this November is starting to measure up to just as hard.

Okay, the full moon week is over finally. Thank goodness, I think my students and my own kiddos were about sick of the full moon. So, the life with kids have settled down again. See my smile to that.

The dealings of working for a school that is corporate dictated; headache for not just my directors but the teachers as well. We lost two teachers this week. They were let go because of the corporate headquarters not making more money per child's head per month. When running a school its not about making money folks its providing enough staff per student ratio, and making sure the kids have plenty to do. I am very disappointed to loose one teacher because we had begun to finally make a good teaching team. The room finally was flowing a classroom needs to flow.
Hopefully she will remember to stop by and pick up her packet of information I will be leaving for her tomorrow.

On top of it all, we have been having flu shot appointments, a trip to the emergancy room due to silbing rivalry, the race is a week from today, and I am happy to say hopefully we can make the hockey game next friday. I haven't seen a live hockey game since I was a kid.

Now, the count down for going home for christmas is on..what a lot of work I have to tackle.

got plans, have had some seriously bad times yourself, or just down and out due the season..shout out in the comments section of this blog. I'd love to hear yourside.

blue/tan pom pom


This is just a sample of the cheerleading kit in the works currently. I posted this for a friend a site that is looking for cheerleading elements.



If the link doesn't work let me know. I can email the file to my friend.You many have to change the background to transparent. I did this before I had a program that would do background only transparent.
