Hey, Del.
I teach in a Montessori classroom, 1st through 5th in one room. I love it. I have a slew of 2nd grade students. They are such a lovely age.

Aleta, what exactly is a Montessori school? I've heard of them all over the place (I've lived in Maryland, DC, New York, Illinois and Ohio and have heard of them everywhere I've lived). Sorry about going off topic!

My daily positive is that We have tons of tulips blooming so I cut a bunch and now have a lovely vase full of them in my living room! I love fresh flowers!! Now if only I could get my husband to actually give me some once in a while! I;ve never gotten flowers from anybody!!   :(

My response to folks who lose weight:

Don't worry, I found it!  :rofl;

Really, though, I know what an accomplishment it is so... :yahoo;   :yahoo;

My positive today is that we practiced the May Pole Dance for the first time today and the kids were GREAT!!!

Thanks Aleta! The Montessori method does sound really cool. I was reading the blog too and found that really interesting.

My positive for the day--Because I've been having weird bp issues at dialysis lately, I wanted to try a profile today that would draw a  bunch of fluid, then draw none, and repeat this for the 3 hours so my fluid would have a chance to get into my bloodstream. Well, I ended up in a section I've never been inn before, with a nurse I've never had. And she kept trying to tell me that the profile I chose wasn't a good idea and I should stick to the one I had been using. I am happy to report that I stood my ground and used the profile I wanted! And my session went smoothly for the first time in several weeks! Yay!!! I hate when the nurses argue with me.   :boxing;

My positive is that I have the support of my family.  My wife is trying to get a new job so she can be home every night, that would help because I've had quite a few high and low BP issues.
