Moving on and settling down…all at once
2012, Why You Be So Fast?Posted by beth on January 26, 2012
Um, I’d just like to point out that we are already through almost 1/12 of 2012. What? Where has this month gone?! Oh right, lesson planning, old episodes of Wings on Netflix, and Words with Friends. And about 50 cups of hot chocolate. I’m having one now as a matter of fact, but I made [...]
CountdownPosted by beth on December 11, 2011
Y’all, I have one more week in this long, long, long, long, long semester. Not bad-long, just long-long. And I’m ready for a break, but what I’m really excited about is organizing all the boxes of class materials under my bed into spiffy binders. And these spiffy binders will all fit into one box, making [...]
Numbers Hate MePosted by beth on September 26, 2011
So I just took a Bible test, which I’m pretty sure I failed miserably. It’s not that I don’t know what it says, it’s just that I don’t know where it says it. There were all these questions about where one might find certain verses or passages on certain topics, and I sat here staring [...]
Stop. Music TimePosted by beth on August 25, 2011
Well, I’ve gotten a little distracted. I was looking for songs, see, to use in class. I wanted songs that told stories, so I typed it into the Google, and away we went. But then, at the bottom of one article about story songs, there was a link to the Top 25 Guilty Pleasure Songs, [...]
Epic PlaylistPosted by beth on June 5, 2011
Last year, for my friend Eden’s birthday, she requested that all her friends make her CDs in lieu of throwing parties, buying dinners, giving gift cards or scarves, etc. Since I love music and making fabulous playlists, I was very excited about this idea. In fact, in the future, if ever you want to give [...]
An Open Letter to Jon Bon JoviPosted by beth on February 18, 2011
Dear Mr. Bon Jovi, If you’ll indulge me for a moment, I’d like to tell you a story. In 1988, a 14-year-old girl from Wilkesboro, NC got the best Christmas present EVER – tickets to your February 17, 1989 show in Charlotte (I believe this was the New Jersey tour). This girl was not me, [...]
Bust a MovePosted by beth on December 16, 2010
I’ve decided to forgo professionalism today. If I have to work on a snow day, I’m going to do it in the comfort of my jabambas by the fire. Plus, who wants to go outside today? Not this girl. And if I’m not going out, why shower? I’m just sayin’ is all. So yesterday I [...]
Merry Artistic ChristmasPosted by beth on December 14, 2010
My very good friend and favorite Skype companion, the lovely Miss DLF, recommended a book for me to read probably two years ago. I got it and started reading it, but then I got distracted from it somehow and put it down. Well. I picked it back up this morning, and wouldn’t you know it, [...]
Little Bethy Snotty HeadPosted by beth on November 18, 2010
Well friends, it’s after 4:00 on a Thursday, so you know what that means… PLAY CLOTHES!!! That’s right! I’m on my couch in my jabambas catching up on the TV I missed this week while I was doing big girl work. It’s great. There’s just one problem: I can’t breathe through my nose. You see, [...]
I LOVE Getting My Money’s WorthPosted by beth on November 13, 2010
Oh friends, tonight was so enlightening. Please allow me to share with you what I learned from the Eric Kearns show. When something is free and you go ready to be entertained no matter what, you ALWAYS get your money’s worth. I’m telling you, for sheer entertainment value, this show definitely ranked in my top [...]
