Hey Ruth!
-> 
-> ->  hn> Ah bread fresh from the oven is a scent from heaven!
-> 
-> -> Or bread fresh from the ABM; that's how I do it now. Just started a loaf
-> -> a few minutes ago.
-> 
->  hn> With us being on a low carb lifestyle we don't do either way, but
->  hn> I expect it would smell the same anyhow!
-> 
-> Yes, probably even more since it's a forbidden item right now. (G)
-> 
Probably not any more so, I've always loved that smell!

-> -> And you probably complained about the "dumb old churn". (G)
-> 
->  hn> It was a novelty until we had to do it (grin)!
->  hn> Just like the old hand cranked icecream maker!
-> 
-> Yes but there was a better reward with the ice cream maker; it was also
-> more immediate.
-> 
Can't argue that point, we used to love 
home made icecream when I was a kid!
My grandparents had a huge ice cream 
maker, it must have made two or three 
gallons at a time, and it could really wear
you out to turn it!

-> ->  hn> Wait a minute!! A hog? Steve was eating pork?? Why did he
-> ->  hn> ever stop???
-> 
-> -> Look for a note about it.
-> 
->  hn> Got it, and I can understand fully!
-> 
-> OTOH, it doesn't bother me; it was just a really bad stink but we passed
-> by it within a few minutes. And, I didn't see that episode of "Dirty
-> Jobs.
-> 
It was pretty gross...but that sort of stuff doesn't really bother
me that much. When I was in navy boot camp, they'd march us
right by the sewage treatment plant on our way to breakfast each
day..a very bad smelling sewage treatment plant too...lots of guys 
lost a lot of weight that first two weeks of boot camp...and they didn't 
really have good appetites ...me I gained 15 pounds in boot camp!

-> ->  hn> projector in her classroom. Then she'd be able to use her computer

-> -> Helps if you're in the same room year after year. (G) So far, Rachel has
-> -> a record of 2 years in the same room. But, she's moving around more, 
and
-> -> changing grade levels within the school, plus she's only been teaching
-> -> since 2002 (with a year off for Robert's birth).
-> 
->  hn> Anne has amassed quite a pile of "additional" materials for teaching
->  hn> her kids. Enough so that she used to have a storage space at
->  hn> the local storage facility....now she keeps most of it in my
->  hn> workspace (grin). She's taught special ed preschool, kindergarten,
->  hn> first, second, and third, and fourth..now she's back at second
->  hn> (which I think she secretly enjoys the most). So she has a lot
->  hn> of material for each grade level! Books, posters, activities etc.
-> 
-> I can see where she would.  Will she gift some of it to other teachers
-> when she retires or keep it if she needs to come in and sub?
-> 
Once she retires she won't be allowed to sub, one of our state laws
about "state retirees" . Usually when a teacher retires she(or he) lays 
out most of their "stuff" and has a garage sale for everyone who's 
interested and then gives away the remainder. 
chat with you soon
