Twinkies!!!

We were trying to be like Nuni and Sofi, except it wasn't planned. We both went to walk in the indoor track and noticed we both had on khaki pants and green shirts. Aren't we funny?
So ladies, when you come, be sure to bring your khakis and green so we can all be the same. ;) ;)

Fun things in Baltimore

While I was in Baltimore, I got to do and see some fun things. First, I got to go to the Cheesecake Factory. Mmmm... was my key lime cheesecake good. I had to get it to go though because I was too full to eat at the restaurant.

The next morning, we decided to tour the USS Constellation in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. It is one of the last sail warships the Navy built.
It is really quite a fascinating ship.



Staying in Baltimore was great! I don't think I've ever slept so well in a hotel. Wow! I slept hard every night and the bed was super comfortable. It must have been all of the pillows.



And then I had to come home. It was a fun trip. Here I am in the Baltimore Washington International (BWI) Airport.

The End.

Baltimore

I finally have been able to get onto the internet. Baltimore has been great. It is a beautiful old city! It has been somewhat cold here, but it is November. Our presentation went really well and we had some good attendees. I am feeling a lot better and have taken several opportunities to take naps! ;) It has felt really good. I'll post some pictures of what I'm doing here when I get back. I need to get over to the opening session, so I'll write more later. Love you all!

Pictures




Clint told me I didn't post enough pictures, so here's one of the Disneyland Magical Castle, Mickey Mouse, and the hotel I stayed at while I was in Anaheim - It was the Quality Inn Maingate - Just about 3/4 mile from Disneyland.

Horray for Friday!

It's Friday!!! I can't believe how quickly this week went! So about Saturday while I was at AECT, I lost my voice. It was pretty much gone on Sunday too. I did go to Sacrament Meeting, but I found someone who could sub for my primary class. I basically slept all day. Monday was interesting because, although I had a little more voice, I still didn't have very much. So my portion of class was very short and my students talked in groups about their projects. Monday afternoon, I just slept too. Tuesday, I decided I'd go to the doctor, and he said that I had lanryngeal tracheitis or something to that effect. He gave me some cough medicine with codeine (that wakes me up) and some expectorant drug that opened up my lungs really well. So I've been coughing and spitting and being a real lady as I've worked to get over the craziness. I am feeling a lot better today than I have all week.

This weekend I'm getting a presentation ready to present in Baltimore. I'll be going there on Tuesday. I am also going to grade my students' midterms that they did while I was gone last week. Then I'll work on creating a bibliography for a paper I need to write before the end of the semester. Then I hope I'll have time to take a nap...I guess I'd better get busy. Life is good!
