Seriously, folks...

If any of you know and/or run into Russell Brand would you please ask him to come and take me away from all of this?

OK in eight short hours the last week of school before Christmas starts. This week is usually fun but exhausting. Now, I'm afraid that it will simply be exhausting.

I'll be trying to sneak in some fun when The Grinch isn't looking.

Is it Christmas yet?

So, we made it through another week at school and the only thing even close to exciting happened Thursday when I had my class on the playground. After we had been out there awhile, I noticed that there was a car in the parking lot with the driver side door open. No one else was in site and no one had come or gone while e had been out there.

I slowly walked through the gate and toward the car. Some of the kids noticed that I was on the other side of the fence and started calling out, "Ms. Brown is leaving!" I assured them that I wasn't leaving and told them to back away from the fence. Then I once again turned my attention to the car with the open door.

As I walked around the front of the car I said a silent prayer, "Lord, please don't let there be a body on the ground!"

Luckily, there was no body! I called the office and after some time we learned that the car belonged to one of the volunteers that helps in a pre-k class. She had simply gotten out of the car and forgotten to close her door. Even the volunteers are stressed out!

In the past two weeks I've had two different dreams about being kidnapped. After the first one, I woke up disappointed that I hadn't actually been kidnapped and had to go to work. The second dream scared me! I woke up with a pounding heart and couldn't get back to sleep. The next day was an especially long one!

We've still got another week before vacation starts and I'm hoping there won't be any more bad dreams. I spent some time today going through more of my Tennessee photos trying to get back the calm feeling that vacation always brings...
