I started out in the afternoon to head to Escondido, so I could get to the office/classroom early enough to set up and then go out and grab a bite to eat before class.
Just wanted to show you the view from the office/classroom in Escondido. Pretty nice to look out at after a 70-mile drive huh?
Class was good. I was well-accepted as "the substitute teacher" for the evening. A couple of the teens told me they hoped I was coming back. Awwwwww, wasn't that nice?
On the long drive back home, the border patrol was open. Urrrrrgh, this added an extra 10 minutes to the trip . . .
I've never been stopped at this one, but I was stopped once coming back across the border from Mexico. Uuuuuuuuuh, flashbacks . . . that was not fun at all.
When I finally arrived home, I checked the mail. Another package! Yippee. Did I tell you I was having the BESTEST Birthday Month EVER?!
Nice! A spiral bound journal of papers that Jacki Long made me :)
Lovin' this journal Jacki! Thank you so much :)
However, I hope you won't be offended, but I have "a thing" about mice!
Eeeeeeeeee - THIS page is going to have to come out *hee hee*
And what can I say about OWOH this year?! I think I am one lucky lady to have won NINE - yes, NINE One World One Heart give-away prizes this year!! WOW
Look at all of the goodies I won . .
I also won a book - "Keeping House". This is the first book in a series of seven mysteries, each featuring a famous house, villa, or castle. This book is A Madame President Mystery, and takes place inside the White House. Keeping House will be published Spring 2009 by Blue Water Press and was written by Denise Tucker.
Post Script: If you read my post on Thursday, you'll be happy to know that Mary Ann and I have now heard each other's voices. We talked for HOURS when I got home from work late last night. And Mary Ann is 3 hours AHEAD of my time here in California. We were on the phone until almost 3am - Yikes!
Post Script Script: Back from getting blood tests and heading out for a Birthday Lunch with a friend now. Ooooh, the partying just never stops! LOL

i couldn't leave a comment for the post before, so i'm leaving it here - your dolls are so cute! they look great. have you worked on them any more? i made an African American doll too, one I found at the flea market under a table. i felt bad that she was just lying there! she's ok - she's one of those "Bratz" types and i think after you paint their faces, they look weird (let's just say they don't have those huge plumpy cheeks that are so cute on the older dolls......)
