With all of the state testing days approaching, it's time we had some fun!  Mimi over at 5th Grade Rocks, 5th Grade Rules (one of my favorites, I must say) has started a "Getting to Know You" linky party!!!  Your job is to copy and paste her questions, fill in your answers, then add one new question to the bottom of your blog...oh, and of course link your survey back to her page! As she put it...it's "mindless fun".  We ALL need that about now!!

Good ol' Pasadena, Texas.

3.  Do you have any pets?  If so, what kind and what is his/her name?

Not having more friends MY age who have children the same ages as my own.

14.  What food do you just NOT like at all?
Liver! ::ACK::  Once, when I was little, I thought it was a piece of steak (and I looooove steak).  I picked it up to take a big bite before my mom caught me and it was the driest, most disgusting thing ever.   To this day, I won't even try it.  Plus, the thought of eating some animal's live is disgusting...

LAST BUT NOT LEAST FOR MY TEACHER BLOG....

15. Who was your most memorable teacher, and why?
Sister Florentine...yes, I was taught by nuns!  If we were too loud, she would give homework assignments in the lowest voice possible.  And we were in big trouble if we missed them. (Our parents were paying directly for our education, mind you.)  But I also remember her encouraging my love for reading and having contests that I enjoyed.  I think I read a book a day in her class; every Beverly Cleary/Judy Blume I could get my hands on!

16.  What is your most embarrassing teacher moment?
 Falling down the stairs when trying to be authoritative!!! My biggest fear and my most embarrassing moment...and it happened TODAY!
