Day 1 of 31 SOLSC - March - A beginning

I have a hard time believing that it can be March already, but here it is.  A beginning - a new month, a new challenge to write every day, new thoughts, new slicers - an exciting time.  I remember last year when Michelle (Literacy Learning Zone) my daughter, encouraged me to become involved in this challenge.  I can honestly say that I was definitely nervous (and yes, somewhat intimidated) about having others read my thoughts, but after only a few days and many comments from this great community, I found myself enjoying the challenge.

And so, I made it through the whole month - writing every day and then, I went on to continue writing and sharing every Tuesday.  I missed a few due to vacations, but I have found that this has become a habit and I look forward to writing, reading, commenting and sharing.

So, welcome to all who are joining us this year and to those who are returning for the 2nd, 3rd ..... times. Thanks to Stacey and Ruth for hosting this challenge. Let this be a new beginning to learning, growing and developing through our writing.

    You are right, Judy, slicing does become a habit - a wonderful one, actually! I'm so looking forward to reading your slices.

    I think it is awesome that you have jumped in to write even though you were intimidated at first. You had a wonderful mentor (Michelle, poet extraordinaire). This is so fun and I love your stories. Write on Judy!

    I think your last line is just perfect. "Let this be a new beginning to learning, growing and developing through our writing."

    That's what it's all about! So glad you are joining in the challenge again! Looking forward to reading more!

    Love ya Mom!

SOL 18/31 - The Realtor's Came Yesterday

Image
Yesterday, the realtor's came to look at our house.  Our realtor only brings his own people thru, so it wasn't too bad.  Max slept thru most of it until they went upstairs where he was sleeping.  He barked briefly, came downstairs, got petted and pampered a little.  They walked thru the house, in the bedroom, up the stairs, down the stairs, looked things over, asked a few questions and 15 minutes later out the door they went. Our realtor told me he has had a couple of calls - one from a neighbor (being nosy) and another from a realtor who said this house is exactly what his clients are looking for, but they had just left the day before it was listed.  But could they put in an offer sight unseen?  Really???  Is this just a realtor's ploy to make us feel good or is it real?  No offer yet, but who knows.  It could happen. I breathed a sigh of relief.  Max looked at me as if to say "Is that it?  Can I go back to sleep now?". ...

Tuesday SOL 10/23/12 - Mr. Pockets goes to school

Image
Last week there was an article in our local newspaper that I found fascinating and wanted to share it with you.  This is a story about a dog who listens as children read out loud.  It's a new program in our school district and I'm proud that our district is using this innovative program to help students learn. Animals are so loving, caring and accepting, and the students love to have someone that they can read to and to be loved unconditionally. I hope you enjoy the article. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201210200500/NEWS01/310200014
