Flowers and I'm Old!

So I was going to tell you how I'm getting old and give you an example but guess what?! In the time it took me to get from the bathroom (getting ready) to the computer, I forgot what my example was. Oh wait!!! I just remembered...examples of why I'm old:

1. I found a gray hair...in my nose!!! I must be old if I have a gray hair up my nose!

2. I forgot about my example for how I must be old in the matter of 10 minutes.

3. I was doing a PowerPoint in history the other day - the struggles between Israel and Palestine - and one of the dates mentioned was 1995. One of my students raised her hand and said, "I was born in 1995!" Me: F&%K!!! (I didn't say that aloud in class) "Well, crap! I was 25 in 1995!"

Yesterday was a good day. Jim and I had a nice breakfast, I walked Sami - a nice long one and it wore her out - and then we went to buy flowers. I managed to plant all my flower boxes on my deck plus 2 potted flowers and 2 hanging baskets. We bought 4 other hanging baskets and those are hung. I got a tomato plant and green pepper plant too...we'll see how those do this year with more sun on the deck. All I have left now is to finish planting some potted flowers - petunias and some impatiens New Guineas. Oh, and Jim needs to do the impatiens out front and we got 5 evergreen bushes to put along the fence line out front. They're tiny now but should look nice once they fill out. We'll see.

Other than that, yesterday, Jim and I hung out, ate dinner and watched Survivor! I was very pleased with the outcome - based on who was left in the finally 3...SPOILER ALERT...I loved that Russell, the fool, didn't get one vote. I haven't watched the reunion show and I'm sure he'll throw a hissy fit and claim to still be the number one survivor but whatever, you're a fool Russell.

K - I gotta head to work. It's raining like cats and dogs and I have a pretty major IEP at 8:00. It actually shouldn't be too bad since the mother emailed me last week to say the father wasn't going to be able to make it...GLORY BE!!! Man is a HUGE!!!! JERK!!!! Watch, he'll have changed his flight or plans and will still be in town. Just my luck. I'm out...later!
