100th Post Today!!  So much to be thankful for!


  • whomever first told me about blogging
  • my daughter for showing me an example of a great blog (hers)
  • faithful slicers who continue to comment
  • students who are into writing
  • friends who understand my passion about teaching
  • Facebook to help keep in touch with old friends around the world
  • a comfortable chair to sit and write my blogs (I am also thinking about Elsie's sofa...should I switch to sofa as well??)
  • the group of students who all decided to bring me an apple today (maybe a post will follow)
  • the phrase "Ms. I miss you!" 
  • new ELL students who keep coming
  • small group ladies who keep me grounded (but in a funny way)
  • parent-teacher conferences with a calm weather forecast (last year in March we had tornado warnings and hail)
  • jeans day at school this Friday!
  • students who have learned to communicate in English!!!!!!!!
  • YOU--who read  this list!!

  1. Wow - a wonderful list. I had a conversation with a friend the other day about why I blog, and the audience, the readers, the community, the feeling of being accountable, of being public, of being read, of actually feeling like a writer --- was at the top of my list.

    A 100 posts - a huge accomplishment!! Congratulations!

  4. Woo hoo! 100 posts is a reason to celebrate the day. There is so much to be thankful for every day. I need to sit back and create a list. Sit where you are most comfortable, besides my husband occupies the chair in the room. :-)

  11. You have a lot of wonderful things to be thankful for! Congratulations on your 100th post -- an exciting milestone! (By the way, slicing on the couch is the way to go -- I almost always write from our reclining couch!)
