Chalkboards are becoming a thing of the past. I haven't been in a classroom in over 8 years, but I was recently in an elementary school and I saw a new gadget. Wow. Now that is something I can honestly say I would not see the end of. But yes, it's true! I like the new chalkboards. They are cleaner.

The circus was in town. How I wish I could go, but we were broke. That day I had to go to the store to buy eggs. As I was walking to pay I found a $20.00 bill on the grocery floor. ...found money!

The circus was in town. I wanted to go so badly, but we were broke. That day I had to go to the grocery store to buy eggs. As I was walking out, there on the floor, was a crisp $20.00! ...found money. It was 20 years ago so I had plenty of money for the circus, popcorn, and a coke.
