This is an awesome idea. Wish I had thought of this when I lived up North.

Most of you that know me, know I grew up on an island on the Jersey shore, 6 miles out, 18 miles long. In the winter it was kinda like living on Cheera, everybody knew you name and you knew theirs. I came home from work and put a pot of coffee on and wss thinking. Through any storm my mom had her coffee brewing and dad had his shots handy…it was a long time ago. All the plow guys, emergency plumbers, etc. knew this and would stop in to warm up.

I got a feeling and went to my local WaWa. I told the manager about this and asked if I could buy a $25 gift card to be used for the road crews out during the storm in honor of my mom and dad. (They have a special $1 coffee any size) She said that is awesome, she would make sure to let the replacing manager know. All I asked was they used the card and say thank you from a neighbor. She asked my name and I said, just a neighbor.

We were overheard and by the time I left wawa, 4 other people did the same. That equals 125 cups of coffee as a thank you. Sure they are paid OT, but they are out in the weather.

I am not posting this for anyone to think I am all that special, cause I am not. I did want to give others the idea and maybe go top their local wawa and do the same.

This is just another thing I was taught to do by a pair of awesome parents. I am still a bitch .

Hey all! I am sharing this with friends except for two (on purpose). I know many people enjoy Nicole Crossland’s pictures of the pups and everything. I just found out there is a wedding shower coming up as she is getting married this Summer. Wish I had known earlier!

They are registered at Bed Bath And Beyond. Just putting this out there for those that may want to pick a small something to send.

Good morning all! It is 39 degrees here in Babson Park, FL and the backyard weather thingy says, “brrrrrr…..” Jesse actually broke down and turned the heat on last night so the dogs would not freeze 🙂 Anyways, everyone have a great day!

Can any teachers out there (or people with kids in school) tel me how the game minecraft is being used in the classroom? Quick, dirty, explanation?

Good Morning all! It is 44 degrees here in Babson Park, FL according to the backyard weather thingy – I guess winter in Florida has set in. I admit it, it was a bit chilly outside this morning, How do I know? Well, the dogs went out, in, out, in, out, in, out, in…. you get the picture. Of course they wait until I sit down in my chair to decide to make another “out” 🙂 Anyways, everyone have a great day!

Good morning all! It is 46 degrees here in Babson Park, FL according to the very chilly backyard weather thingy. Yesterday morning we were about 12 miles from where one of the tornado’s ended. We had very little damage, a blown over fence, some outdoor furniture moved around, could have been way worse. Heart goes out to those who lost loved ones and their homes in the storm. On today’s agenda? Work. Yup, the powers that be decided that starting a new term on MLK day is a great idea. Again. We will see how many of our new students actually show up. Well, yes, I am back from my FB vacation. Missed my friends, but have promised myself that others drama is not my own and I will not be a part. Have a great day everyone.
