Parent Teacher Conference



This is about the funniest parent/conference parody I've seen. Parents like her get a reputation real fast in the faculty room .... Although I've conducted hundreds and hundreds of them with wonderful & caring folks, I have had a few zingers.... a few parents with outrageous claims and/or requests. Funny how some parents view their kids.

Sometimes... as soon as I meet the parents ... I have no more questions about the child's problems/behaviors.

I love when Mrs. Smith throws in the 504 Plan threat, and when she claims .... You make him learn too much. Oh, were it only so...

Together last year


This is the last time we were all together, in Salt Lake. Wish we could do it more often.

Jesus Christ


This is the reason for the season..........
We own this BEAUTIFUL painting by Simon Dewey.
My dad bought it for my husband 2 years ago.
It hangs, beautifully framed, in Gary's office.
It's my very favorite.

Way, WAY Better that Oprah's Favorite Things...


During 4th period Friday I was taken by surprise. The Ogden City School Board President & Vice President came into my room to tell me I was chosen for the district's Empowering Excellence Through Education Award

BUT ... even better, and even more tear worthy, I got an "O Captain, My Captain" by two of my students standing on their desks! (thanks Alex and Mitchell).... and I'm not even a dead poet. Generally, the certificate says I'm doing a spiffy job... but more powerfully, my students tell my heart everyday...

HUGS to all my students, you're all too wonderful!

Eric Call


Wow.. isn't my nephew a doll? Hummm... not married, at BYU, returned missionary, really smart, comes from a great family mine. If you know my brother Dayton, this is his youngest son. He's done everything right.

Just sayin'

Don't like to be negative, but let it be said:
GREAT LADY ...... Scumbag Husband ....
R.I.P.

STIFF a great book


Oh MY GOSH! I love this book... I can't wait to read it every night....

This is the introduction to the book: (Got me hooked)

The way I see it, being dead is not terribly far off from being on a cruise ship. Most of your time is spent lying on your back. The brain has shut down. The flesh begins to soften. Nothing much new happens, and nothing is expected of you.

If I were to take a cruise, I would prefer that it be one of those research cruises, where the passengers, while still spending much of the day lying on their backs with blank minds, also get to help out with a scientist's research project. These cruises take their passengers to unknown, unimagined places. They give them the chance to do things they would not otherwise get to do.

Death. It doesn't have to be boring.

Life's better with friends


These are some great lady-friends of mine... nearby neighbors and ward buddies: Heather (l) was my gynecologist ... Tiffany, (blue) is a speech therapist, and Heather (r) is an ER physician.
I know where to go when I'm in trouble.

Christmas Sparkle

This is a picture taken 5 years ago. LOVED it when they used to be able to just come up for a visit. Melissa and Kami frosting Christmas cookies.


The tree is done....

And the banister, too....
