VACATION!!!!!

I MADE IT!!!! All the sugar covered little kids wanted to hug me good-bye at the end of the day. It was a great day. Teaching was NOT happening... partying was! As one sage teacher put it "today is about containing the troops". How right she was!
I did get a few gifts from some of the kids. I did a present exchange with a few teachers. One of them got me my own WEBKINZ!!!! HA HA kiddos!!! If you don't know webkniz they are a stuff animal that the kids buy that have an access code to the website. Kids go on here and take care of their new pet. They feed them, play with them and earn money to buy them cool things. It's a virtual pet that you never have to walk or clean up after! My co-worker got me the white bunny! I registered him last night and was playing with it before I went out with some teachers from a school I worked at 2 years ago. They laughed at me and my telling them about webkinz, but they also understood. I like to keep up with what the kids are into so I know what the trends are (past 5th grade, I have no ideas about trends!).
Today my plan is to clean up my house (it looks like a bomb went off), and then mail out the Christmas gifts that need mailing!!! I also have a purse that I need to think about making since I was also asked to do that! So much to do today! After all that, I plan to drive home to my parents house to spend some relaxing time with them.
I wish you all a happy holiday and a wonderful New Year! Love, Rabbit
