Did you do your homework?

30 minutes of reading
Spelling, wb. p. 92
Math, wb. p. H7-8 and Review 1-10 Sciencedrill
test Thursday (Unit B, Chapter
Math test Thursday (Chapter 7)


This is my daughter’s 3rd grade homework assignment. All teachers (grades 1-8 ) are to post the homework for that day on the Internet.
I guess the days are gone when your mom or dad would ask you if you have any homework and you might say something like “no not really”. Now the parents check on line just to make sure. I’m not sure if I like this idea or not. I don’t know why but I just feel a little funny when my wife or myself double check and make sure my daughters homework statements are accurate. Or maybe I’m making too big of deal out of this.

Lock Your Doors Everybody Martha Stewart Is Out Of Jail

I know this is the no agenda zone but I have to say something about Martha Stewart.
As everyone knows she was just released from prison. I just heard she will be under house arrest for 5 months and have to wear an electronic ankle bracelet to track her every move. Doesn’t this seem like a little much? Are they afraid she might break into someone’s house and start decorating without the owner’s approval? I am not a fan of Martha Stewart. I never watched her TV shows and I don’t shop at Kmart. I have also heard she is very hard to work with and is sometimes very nasty to her employees. Having said all this, is it just me or did this whole thing seem kind of like a witch-hunt?
I know she lied to the feds about a stock deal and of course should be punished for this. I just think a couple of years of community service plus a stiff fine with the money going to some charity would have made more sense. But who am I to Judge?

Valentines Day

Well here it comes, Valentines Day
I have never met a married guy that looks forward to this day.

Some wife’s might say to their husbands “Oh honey don’t worry about getting me anything for Valentines day just being with you is enough for me”
Translation: You better get something even if it’s only one lousy red rose or you are dead meat.

I am very lucky. I am married to an honest woman. She says to me “honey you better get me something for Valentines day or you are dead meat” After all a man wants to know where he stands with his woman.

Every year is the same and I’m sure this year won’t be any different. It goes something like this:

I always wait until the very last minute for this joyous occasion. This means on the way home from work at 6:00 PM on the 14th of February. I don’t know why I do this, maybe it’s my way of protesting the whole thing. As I am driving to the local Hallmark store I am plotting my strategy. OK I will get a card and then hop over to the store across the street to buy her that thing she likes. Bing Bang then I’m home sweet home. (Of course deep down I know it will never go that smooth)
As I enter the store I see the Hallmark store is in a frenzy with my last second card buyer fraternity brothers bumping into each other in a six square foot card section area that says FOR WIFE.
Before I entered the store I was thinking that I might get her a humorous card but not really that silly just something simple to show my love to her with a little sense of humor to it. As I survey the situation I downsize my ambitions to a card that says wife and love somewhere on it and it is in English.
As I look through the few remaining cards I am reading phrases like
.
“Baby, I Love you so much, I can just lose control”
(As you get older this might not be such a good thing)

Here is an original one: “You are my soul mate forever”

One year I remember reading something like: “You have peeled away the calloused layers of emotion, which I have built up over the years”

Here is one of my favorites: “Your love has set me free” (No comment)

How about this one: “Our many years together speaks for itself” (I’m thinking to myself then why am I buying this stupid card)

I really love my wife allot but I can never really relate to these cards. Does a married person actually write these things? It’s now almost 7:00 PM so I settle for a card I don’t like but at least I don’t hate. Now I have run accrossthe street to pick up that gift she probably won't like.

I arrive home and of course my wife is on to me by now. “Why are you so late?”
Translation: I know you waited till an hour ago to buy something for me.
I’m thinking at least I’m not in the dead meat category.

There actually is one day I do look forward to every year and that’s, February 15.
