Disagree -- LOVE food!! (The only problem is that we have to pay money for it.)
I love food too. But there are too problems.... the money and the weight gain of eating too much good food!

I love restaurants that give you so much food, you end up taking home another "full-sized" meal for the next day, to heat up at home!!

I always had that same thought back when my girls were in the music program. It always seemed to me that they picked music that was completely foreign to the kids, they didn't like it and it showed. I was never sure why they did that. For a challenge, maybe? I don't know. What I do know is that I suffered through so many elementary school concerts where I had to tell them how good they were when it was awful. One summer there was a one week, music camp that was offered in the area. The same kids that were in the school presentations went to the camp.@SteveBrickNJ , I was just thinking about how you teach music to groups of students at your school. My guess is that it's probably contemporary musical selections that work well for most.
Just wanted to share that back when I was a kid in the third grade, we had this nun that was a fanatic about Gregorian Chant. She insisted on teaching it to us (kids about 7 or 8 years old . . .).Suggestion: don't bother trying to teach your students Gregorian Chant! Not worth it!
They chose a musical called "Showboatin" if I remember correctly. They had to learn the music, build the sets and be ready to have a show in under one week. The songs were not in the top 10 countdown but they were very upbeat, melodic and fun to sing. Those same kids that I suffered through were truthfully, this time, absolutely great. It was like they were a completely different group. Shortly the following fall the same kids were back in a school program and they had returned to awful. I always wished the music teachers would stop trying to make professional singers out of those kids and just gave them fun things sing where they could belt it out with confidence. There was time for complex later on in school.

Waiting for the next update. The 6 o’clock one dropped our amounts to 1-2 inches. I canceled my hotel reservation.

No chance my colleague who teaches the Classrooom Music will teach Gregorian Chant@SteveBrickNJ , I was just thinking about how you teach music to groups of students at your school. My guess is that it's probably contemporary musical selections that work well for most.

I guess your nun really made an impression on you because decades later you remember her so well!

@MinnieM123 , is it sufficiently cool up in New England tonight? NJ is nothing special. A non descript winter evening.

God no.Do you miss those group projects!
Although I am still friends with one girl I did a group project with.
She's the only one, but it's something.

I'm actually looking into going back possibly in the fall for accounting, as long as my health decides to cooperate.Do you miss those group projects!
I miss college, except for the school work!
I'm quite possibly crazy, but I shall see...

And, the North Texas sprawler preliminary floor plan mostly CAD’d up (minus a few tweaks here and there). We thought it would be a good idea to detach the massive garage from the main house via a covered breezeway and the client liked the idea. It’ll also help with the roof massing and exterior elevations aesthetic...!!!

That might be a nice addition for your resume. Good luck if you do go back. As for the crazy...I think we all are a little crazy.

They are all single family homes.
The second and last pics are actually the rear elevations of those homes. All the homes garages are at the rear of the home off of an alley. Along with the garage on the lower level is usually a mud/sand room, a TV/sitting room, and 2-3 bedrooms, and sometimes a small bunk room, with either a shared bath or en-suite baths. And the utility/laundry room is many times on this level as well.
The second, or main, level comprises the kitchen, dining, living, sometimes the utility/laundry, and a powder/half bath or full bath depending if there is a bedroom or small bunk room on that level.
The third level comprises the master suite and bath, and many times a small sitting room, another Bedroom or bunk room, and another bath.
Also, some of the homes have elevators that serve all three levels.

The issue is that I'm in finance without a finance degree, so in order to move anywhere, I'd need an accounting degree. The good thing is that my company offers tuition reimbursement. I found the program I want, so it's just a matter of getting my health in check.
My college accounting professor encouraged me to switch majors. Well, apparently I should have listened.

Thats nice that your company offers the tuition reimbursement, so if you do go back you won’t have to worry about the cost.

One of my all-time favorite, CLASSIC movies!!!
Yep, love the whole premise...
”I just traveled 250,000,000 miles to tell you idiot earthlings to quit bein’ stupid or we’ll annihilate your whole friggin’-a$$ planet. And we don’t need no stinkin’ giant ‘death star’ to do it...we got Gort(s).”
