Catholic and other private schools started school today, and the NHP is patrolling the school crosswalks to make sure no one is speeding through. Local cops will patrol the crosswalks next week when CCSD schools open.

It means the driveway closest to the school to our west will be crawling with Henderson PD SUVs! Do. Not. Speed.

I just go around them. There is a crossing light about 50’ to the left, but I just go right to get where I need to go. It’s shorter, anyway, including to the freeway.

Get on it, Teacher Mom! I’m sure you will find something to occupy their time with. A couple of my nieces homeschool, and even two of their daughters are doing it.

Of course, when I went to school, it wasn’t needed, as the schools actually TAUGHT kids things they should know.

And we always opened the day with the Pledge of Allegiance and a prayer. Good school days!

Things like treat policemen with respect, don't have babies except with your lawfully wedded spouse, don't take things that aren't yours, don't burn stuff down, etc?

Therapy helps, but screaming and yelling obscenities is faster and cheaper.

Also, throwing things helps, too, as long as the walls are the only targets.

I just heated a burrito, and in reading the package, I found that the $1 burritos with better meat (shredded) and cheese have fewer calories than the 3 for a $1 ones that are about half the size!

I should have read the labels sooner... :o|

Or not at all. Calories you don’t know about don’t make you gain, right?

If that’s the case, I should weigh 157...
ROTFL!!

I don’t know why, but for some reason, my bed keeps calling to me. I thought I slept OK last night, but I guess my body knows differently. *sigh*

Still, I’m not ready to give it up for the day.

LOL!
I wish I could get some home made tamales. Busdaddy’s neighbor gives him some periodically, but I don’t go there now, for some reason...

Still I would like to knock on the neighbor’s door and BEG!

Well, in your neck of the woods, you should only have to wait for the next invitation to a BBQ or Patio Party! LOL!

I just ran (drove) down the street to get a beer, and when I opened the cooler door, this really short, really old person said, “Me too!” I got my beer and held the door open for her and then it hit me: I said, “I’m not paying for it.”

As I started the car, she came out of the store...with no beer...sorry, but this low on funds, it’s all I can do to support my own habit, not help a stranger support theirs........ So stone me in the square.
