Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

No News is - - - - No News!

I just realized I have not posted since Sunday. That's because I've got nada. (Unless the fact that in spite of forgetting to set the alarm I still awoke this morning at 4:17 is news)

Today is a full day of school after which the kids are out for a four day Fall Break weekend while we teachers head off to Teacher's Convention.

I'll be taking lappy along - - - perhaps I'll find some thing blogworthy.

I'm in South Bend at the ACSI Teacher's convention.

Let me know when you're back and ready for a La Char outing with me, the kids, and Haley. Let's try for a night when Dad is off so he can see the kids, too!; October 1, 2008 at 10:21 PM
Keetha Broyles said...: Sorry, Keri. I guess I don't think of this as "leaving town" 'cause its all a part of my job.

I'll be back tomorrow (Friday) afternoon.; October 2, 2008 at 5:26 AM
