It's rainy here so we decided not to do the farm market today. I made Mickey waffles and bacon instead and while those were cooking I started making a wild rice soup to simmer for lunch. I'm tired now, I may need a nap.

Blah to rainy day. The soup sounds yummy though.

Oh, and another one just for grins...

Why didn't Captain Jack Sparrow shower...?
'Cause he just washed ashore...!!!!!

 

[MySmallWorldof4]

Hahaaa...!
Love it...!!!
To partially quote Lord Polonius from Shakespeares's Hamlet "...brevity is the soul of wit..."

But, that being said, sometimes a long, drawnout joke is worth the punchline. I've posted this one before. It's from an old (he passed a few years ago) local morning talk show host and musician, but, it still cracks me up every single time...!!!!!

Have fun and Happy Birthday to him!

We're still looking at other schools, tool, just to be sure, but so far it seems like the special one is the best for him, just because of the bullying. Most of the regular schools here have classes too big...33 kids in one class. And there's one that's only got 20/21 kids per class for his grade level, but they don't have a class of JUST his grade level...it's combination classes of 4th/5th, or 5th/6th. Plus that one is ALMOST as far away as the special one. If I'm going to have to take him 30 mins by bike each day, I'd want it to be a perfect fit. We'll look at all of them though, and see what we come up with. There are bullies in pretty much every school...I don't think we can handle more bullying at this point.

Sorry, but, at this point I have ask.
What's with all the bullying over there?
Even our DS, with his issues, was bullied extremely minimally, in all 3 schools, over here.
Really, just an honest question as to your opinion.

Have fun and Happy Birthday to him!

We will, and thanks!
And, after this weeks surgery fun , DWifey could definitely use a bit of a wine break...!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

OK gang, out for now...!
Wine time...!!!
Y'all be cool...!!!!!
Laterrrrrrrrrrr...!!!!!!!

[Figgy1]

That is what we have all been trying to tell you, yet, you go on and on about how magnificent cold and winter is and no matter what we say... you don't seek help. You're on you own kid!

I concur

I guess I really can't speak for @Songbird76 , but I have seen my share of kids and sometimes there are just kids in a class that are jerks and feel the need to belittle others and have no sense of empathy for other around them. And sometimes there are classes of kids that take care of the kids with special needs or even if there aren't any extreme special needs they just band together and are nice kids to all. Fortunately most of the students I've had students have taken it upon themselves to be special caretakers of the kids that have had special needs like Down Syndrome and Autism. But sometimes we have gotten kids that don't care and are just a$$holes who won't listen to others or try to have empathy.

Good morning! No I don’t get up early like you guys! lol We got up at 8 and DH headed out to get my 10,000 mike checkup on the jeep. Other than that, just little things to do around the house.
Anyone doing anything fun today?

Fun if you consider going to the farm market, super market and spending most of the rest of the day cooking. So mostly funish

Well, that sucks. But not much you can do when it's a safety concern.

Yesterday I had to report to my boss that I believed a project wasn't being financed properly. I hated doing it because I really like the project manager, but what can you do? I just hope they're smart enough not to blame him because it really sounds like it isn't his fault.
