I may or may not stop by here Wednesday, depending on how much remains to be done in preparation for the trip. My husband's family do not own a computer, so it is unlikely that I'll have any internet/email access while I'm gone. Enjoy your holidays and I'll check in when I return on the 4th of January.

Brazil, wow, sounds nice, Marilyn.
Enjoy your vacation, it sounds like a real one: no computers even.
Happy Holidays,
Pauline

Have a great time! (Now I have more time to figure out what the heck you were trying to tell me in your last nitpick!)

Enjoy yourself. Now I don't feel so bad about putting off my next assignment.

Ow! Flicks spit ball off her arm and inhales deeply, empty Bic pen ready and aimed at Joseph...

Matthew yells "teacher's pet" and hurls a huge spit ball at JdJ.

stops giggling long enough to yell over to Johannes: "Hey, JdJ, forget about the log, you have some spit ball defense to take care of!"
flies how-to-learn-spit-balling-in-24-hours folded into a paper plane over to JdJ, then launches a big, fresh spit ball at him, and quickly ducks for cover

Ok (cracking whip to attract attention). I'm back.

It was a lo-o-o-ong trip. About 13 hours in the air, but long waits in airports for transfers, so the trip took about 25 hours (allowing for the 5 hours in time difference). We had a good time while we were there but were ready to come home.

I hope you all had a good holiday break as well.

We were good, honest.
I worked very hard on my assignment so that I can turn it in before the weekend is over.

Welcome back! Now perhaps some discipline can be restored in the ranks. I can't tell you how out of control some students got the moment those wheels left the tarmac!!!
