100th post!!

woohoo! 100th post!!
Anyways,
I went to Fashion Bug yesterday to buy a gift card for someone else's Christmas present, and I walked out with a bunch of clothes for myself!! Ugh...
I also thought it would be a good idea to go to Walmart...yeah, I was wrong on that one too.....WAAAAAY TOO BUSY!!!!! I stood in line (behind a student and his mom) for over 15 minutes!! At least I had someone to talk to while waiting in the line!
So my advice to you is....
STAY THE HECK OUT OF WALMART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ugh

I apologize for the lack of blog posts....however.....I have entered computer HELL!!!

After reinstalling Windows, it seems that my computer STILL does not want to cooperate.

BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH

over and over and over again

I have not had a chance to call Dell again, but this is getting ridiculous....


However, in other news....

I have had a BUSY week...but a good one.

The concert on Tuesday went well (other than the noisiness in the audience, which was VERY noisy) The jazz band kicked butt!!!

Several students signed up to play Christmas Carols at the mall, which I think went VERY VERY well. I have received a LOT of positive feedback on that gig!

Friday was the Christmas party, which of course was VERY fun :-)

I have had a cold for the past week and a half, I lost my voice for most of Thursday and Friday (which makes teaching very difficult). I'm still not feeling completely better....we'll see what the week brings......

We spent today at the boy's parents' house, celebrating mom's birthday, and decorating the tree. We had a lot of fun (and I hope she enjoys the many bottles of wine she received from all the family members)

Here's to a FOUR day week!!!! (let's hope I can make it through!)

yesterday's sunset






The pictures still don't capture the colors that I saw yesterday evening...it was absolutely gorgeous

and we're back...




Ok....as my away message read earlier today....





Die Dell Die





My computer went haywire this past weekend, and after backing up all files, reinstalling Windows, and over 3 hours of Dell technical support later, I think we are all better.





Ugh...
