Las Vegas

Geeze - It took me awhile to just get to this spot.  But, alas, I'm here.  Had a relaxing time in Las Vegas.  Now for most that probably sounds like an oxymoron.  However,  I stayed off the strip at a beautiful place with a perfect pool.  I even could put my lounge chair in the pool.  I think I only gambled for 30 minutes and won Snark $10.  I didn't know what to do after that?!  The room had a TV in the mirror in the bathroom, and the separate tub looked out on the skyline which had a view of the lights of the strip and the pool below.  I didn't take the camera, so no pics this time.  I saw Lion King and it was great!  The costumes, dance, and music was wonderful.  I'm recommending it to one and all.  I'm ready to take off again, but I'll have to wait because I have to work 1/2 day on Friday.  In the meantime, I'll catch up on errands and chores.

musings 2

well - my throat hurts from talking so much and sometimes so loudly.  I'm resting it today.  It takes a lot of energy to get the messages across for behavior to be a certain way in the classroom to have some learning taking place.  Not much learning happened on Friday.  It didn't help that the a/c went out on Thursday.  I felt really crummy by the time I got home, but felt much better after having dinner and getting some liquids in me.  Enjoyed a nice visit with Mom on Saturday.  Went to see Scott Pilgrim later, but it wasn't for me even though it got good reviews.  Resting today and working on genealogy and a couple of school items.  I'm in love with 3-day weekends!
