An Affair to Remember

The MovieMovieBlogBlog  had a great idea for a holiday blogathon. Each post would present a movie to someone as a gift this Christmas season. As soon as I saw this, I knew exactly what movie I wanted to present and to whom.  Presenting An Affair to Remember to the love of my life,  my husband… Read More An Affair to Remember

As Time Goes By

I often think about growing older, and that distance I’m viewing is not as far as it once was, which is good because my far vision is not what it used to be.

The World is Too Much With Us

The World is Too Much With Us

With the worldwide web literally at students’ fingertips, it would be easy to assume that they can find out anything they need any time.

The Unintentional Lesson

” The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.” This quote, often attributed to Winston Churchill, but probably dating back to Horace, sums up my most recent inservice experience. I do feel compelled to note that being right by mistake is nothing to get excited about; I don’t think […]
