So.....if anyone has any names out there, let me know! I still love Anna for a girl, but we can't use that name because it's my grandma's name....and my second favorite name is Emerson and I think I've shared with you all that Brian's reaction is "'em r sum big boobies!" Sounds like a redneck, huh? I also like Olivia. Now, what if it isn't a girl? Well, we've explored that possibility too....and I love Sam (good pick, right Angela?), but Brian likes Cale. No, like the name, but don't want to name our kid after a veggie. My #2 and #3 names are Ethan and Wilson (Will), but Brian says, "no" and "no." So, with that said we've decided that Leo Ernest George Raymond will be this baby's name if it's a boy!! Those are our grandfather's names together...We'll just call him LEGR. Does that work? (I'm teasing) Seriously, what's really in a name anyway???? Maybe we should name this baby "Gaggle baby" and call him/her "honk" for short!!!!! As teachers/counselors, I think we can all attest that every name that we like has been ruined by that ornery kid that we just didn't love so much!!!<BR/><BR/>Here's something funny....I am supervising an ISU grad student in our building....yes, I said supervising! Today, I had to sign off on her guidance lessons...it really made me feel old and it made me realize just how many hoops we have jumped through and just how much the program hasn't changed! Ok, so rereading this...that really wasn't that funny, but I find it funny. Laugh, ok?<BR/><BR/>Better get going....Anna, hope your MRI results came back ok! And, if anyone has any names that they are willing to share, let me know. At this rate, we might just name a son after whichever presidential candidate wins the election and a girl after the first lady.Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04495351554568612798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297443446067327528.post-26568655705114653952008-10-27T12:11:00.000-04:002008-10-27T12:11:00.000-04:00French Lick.. he he..French Lick.. he he..SeaWorthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04935942280970143687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297443446067327528.post-71053119708897511672008-10-23T20:39:00.000-04:002008-10-23T20:39:00.000-04:00Anna, I hope your mri went well.

I know it will be hard to go back to work next week. I have been dreaming of my own orchard, apple cider, carmel apples and pie. I made applesauce yesterday and the smell brought back so many memories of my childhood with my mom and my grandparents. I miss them terribly, but also know I shared some of that legacy with my boys as we cranked out applesauce on the old masher we used when I was their age. What fun. <BR/><BR/>Nothing new to report. Keep the chins up ladies. Enjoy the fall days. Miss and love you all.Milk House doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11191664065125195272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297443446067327528.post-945434359520096412008-10-21T21:49:00.000-04:002008-10-21T21:49:00.000-04:00Hearing your voice makes me very happy,Young'un. G...Hearing your voice makes me very happy,Young'un. Glad everything is OK. We understand the disappointment at work; if only everyone were "transformed" like us. It is difficult to tolerate everyone else's shortcomings in this job, isn't it. <BR/>Post those pix, you as Jane Fonda, I gotta see. <BR/>MRIs are not too bad, just loud and rumbly. Think sweet, calm thoughts and all will be well.

I check this thing religio...Ok Gaggle...I am here. I check this thing religiously, however just haven't posted. Things are going well with me I suppose. I think work could be better but I'm sure everyone feels that way. I suppose I have gotten used to the way things are in my buildings but it seems much different this year. Even though it is better because I have more experience, I feel it is worse because I am am noticing how everyone really is...you know, the two faces. It is becoming increasingly harder to go between two buildings instead of easier like I thought. The two administrations are completely different and don't really play well together. The high school doesn't understand anything the middle school does bc everything is "so elementary minded" and the middle school doesn't understand why the high school runs the way it does. It is so frustrating and the finger pointing is ridiculous and somehow I get to be in the middle of it all answering all the quetions and constantly defending the other side. Why can't we act as one corporation instead of two buildings???<BR/><BR/>So other than that...everything is great :) Personal life is great and boy is wonderful! His name is Brett by the way. Things are going very well with him and I am enjoying every second of it. We are dressing up as 80's fitness instructors for halloween...I will defintitely need to post a picture of that! His mom is lending me a leotard she used to wear...just like Jane Fonda she said...I can't wait! Last weekend we went to see the Bodies Exhibit in Indy...it was amazing and I would suggest everyone to see it. You get in free for being educators!<BR/><BR/>I am going for an MRI on Thursday for my head. I finally went to the Dr. for my migrains and got some migrain medicine. It's wonderful! However since my dad had a cerebral aneurysm they wanted to check everything with an MRI...I don't know how I feel about very small spaces. <BR/><BR/>Love you all!annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12225755823808016199noreply@blogger.com
