In History class, I watch a current events show with my kids. It’s called CNN10. At the end of each episode, the host does a couple of “shoutouts” – that is, he mentions schools and teachers that comment on the CNN10 social media accounts.

Yesterday when we got to the shoutouts, this was the school he mentioned:

Ha! Orange Lutheran High School is just down the road from my school! How cool! I don’t know the teacher he mentioned, but it was so exciting to see a sister school on the screen.

In the wintertime, I get condensation on my truck windows. It’s our version of frost on the windshield I guess.

I have been wiping it off with extra fast-food napkins, but I can only use them a couple of times before they get all stiff and balled-up. I decided to get a squeegee. After shopping around, I found one that was small and had no handle. It was the perfect size and shape. But would it work?

Yes! It does! Yesterday morning was my first condensation morning after receiving the squeegee in the mail. I loved it!

Yesterday was a restful day. I had a diner breakfast, shopped a little, and had some home time. It was so nice.

One of the places I went to was IKEA. They have such nice artificial flowers. I got something for spring for the shelf in my closet, because it’s pretty much going to be spring here soon.

It’s a dogwood branch! They were always a sign of spring in Knoxville. They make me happy when I look at them.

We ended our celebration of National Lutheran Schools Week with a talent show at school. It was nice. I enjoyed so many of the acts. One of my middle schoolers played the piano and did an amazing job!

And of course, the little kids were adorable!

Us teachers did a little skit, and I had to dress like a rock star. I decided I’d make a shirt with the Mighty Crabjoys logo on it. It’s a fictional rock group from the newest Superman movie. I think it came out really well.
