Today I ordered the edger blocks and the retaining wall for our potager. I wanted several hundred feet of a certain kind of block, the really nice fellow I talked to on the phone heard something else. When I arrived to confirm everything (key in my small town) it wasn't what I expected, BUT it would look great and was half the price! GIVE THE GUY A RAISE! Still more than I wanted to spend, but the cheep stuff looked like... the cheep stuff. So, I ordered the stuff the nice fellow suggested. Hope he gets a raise.
C came home complaining about teachers who didn't hear what she was saying, and then went on to tell me about how they implemented things she had been pushing for a year.
Sometimes I think we get caught up in our own filters of the way the world should be and don't really see the way the world is.
C gets this at work a lot. I get this at home. We want ABC, but we get abc. It is a step toward what we want. The kids are processing what we want, we just have to be willing to see the smaller steps. (OK, that was way to much personal processing. Probably should delete it)
Chocolate duck!
One of the teachers who loves C and everything she brings to the classroom gave her this....
Good fodder for someones psych class.

The loom will be great! We are already visioning the implications. BUT, the part we missed was getting it from point A to point B. Planning in KEY. You have to think of EVERYTHING. EVEN STUFF YOU DIDN'T THINK OF!

Oh my goodness that is a BIG loom. I must say in all honesty that I am sitting here grinning like a fool just envisioning you trying to muscle that thing into your house...I will not complain next time I have to unload something from my van! It could never be as big or unwieldly as that loom! Kim
