Don't eat the gumballs, kids! (Definitely saw some children reprimanded for this!)

One of Bloomie's magnificent windows. Each has it's own song as part of the soundtrack of windows! Very cool! This one was "The Christmas Waltz."
In the nasty subway! Ha! Friends for-eva!

Check it out!!!

The media specialist at my school was very tricky and created this lovely video that you need to watch. It stars me, Mr. Polly (art teacher) and some other staff at our school. Bet you didn't know I knew all these sweet moves, hey?

R.I.P. Maximo

Today, my beloved Betta, Maximo, went to the happy pond in the sky. I will miss his swimming in circles in the flower vase on my counter. I will miss him fluttering excitedly as he ate the food I gave him. Sigh.
