#3 in two days

Okay I know you haven't heard from me in a year and then all the sudden I have three in two days but this is funny and I had to write it down before I forgot.

This happened today in class:
When I let the kids in there was one walking very slowly down the hall and I was a bit confused. Until this situation happened and then it all made sense.


Student: Miss Lloyd am I late?
Me(Miss Lloyd): No, why?
Student: darn it!
Me: Putting on my best confused face, then asking "why are you upset about being on time"
Student: I really want to be late, because if I am late one more time I get after school detention and I have a really long boring class tonight. I want to miss it and stay after school.
Me: Detention is not going to be fun. What class could possibly be worse than detention?
Student: Violin, and my mom never let's me miss it.

So there you have it folks, detention is apparently better than violin lessons. I love working with them and seeing their logic everyday.

A co-worker and I were sharing stories at lunch today and here is another one that happened to me two years ago.

I had a mom in telling me that she had moved her son's adhd patch from his butt to his shoulder. Then he pipes in, It is about time. The only thing that has been paying attention is my butt. Maybe now the rest of me will pay attention.

I laughed at both of these and thought I would share the enjoyment with the rest of you. I hope you have a great day!! Love Ya!!

And the winners are..........

Yes, folks that is right there was a tie. After many years of debate and competition the final scores are in. Don't get me wrong I still love all of you very much and I am glad that you are all my cousins.

Many have tried over the years yet they simply forget and move on. However one person has stayed there through the thick and the thin. When my friend and I needed a date he was there. When I needed a pick me up it was a phone call just to see how I was. When I needed a partner in a game of hand and foot she was there. Yes folks hands down these two people have been there for me and have earned the title of #1 Favorite Cousin(s).

Here are just a few reasons, that made them stand out above the rest:

1- When I visited him in Georgia he gave a pen that smelled like candy. Which I kept for many years after.
2- Him and his friend came up and went to Jr. Prom with my friend and me. (so much fun!!)
3- We went to a movie at the drive-in and watched that movie. After we went home and stayed up and watched 4 or 5 more movies(I can't quite recall how many now) and all our younger siblings feel asleep we stayed up and watched all of them. The best being something about a teenage zombie. Let me tell you what it was amazing.
4- We created the PG- whatever age we are currently so that anyone younger can not join our activity.
5- He calls me randomly just to see how I am doing
6- He married an amazing woman, whom I love. :)
7- He is there when I need him
8- He does a wonderful Curtis
9- He sang the song It's my Aeroplane in the car with his arms out the window, and also Blister in the Sun! Another song that to this day I still think of you!!
10- She played many rounds of Hand and Foot (and was a wonderful partner)
11- Reminds me when I really need to write on my blog.
12- Reminds me that people really do notice that it has been a year since my last post on here. And that no matter how boring I think my life it is entertaining to her.
13- They have a darling little girl and one more on the way.
14- They are so much fun and make me happy just to be around them.
15- Last but not least They try to see me every time they are in the state of Utah.

That is right Folks, the winners are Tyler and Margret Jolley. I love you all and thanks to all who tried and failed. It is hard to beat someone as cool as Tyler and Margret (and when you put them together they are dynamite). I love you all and Margret I hope this works for you first blog shout out!! :) I love you guys!!

Ok I know it has been awhile! Ok I know that is an understatement.

Okay I have decided to give everyone who has been waiting for me to update this blog a little update. The biggest reason is because my favorite cousin's wife(some of you may know who this is and for those of you who do not it is Tyler and his wonderful amazing and extremely cool wife Margret Jolley) said she really needed to hear an update on my life even if it was boring. So okay here it goes. Let's see I am still teaching in Draper at a Charter School. I love the 4th grade. I am learning so much. Okay last year I became an aunt twice. Once to a niece Oaklie Dawn (McKay and Alyssa's) and the other Kayden Kimball (Ashly and Kimball's) they are both so cute and I love them so much. They are exactly five months apart, which is so much fun. I moved home over the summer and enjoyed many hours working on the farm. Also in March we celebrated my dad's 50th birthday. Which was a lot of fun. Let's see what else happened last year........ okay I can't think of anything else. However for this next year, I have a few plans. I am going to run a 5k called the Dirty Dash. It is a mud obstacle course. I am very excited for this fun race. I promise to be better about writing on my blog. So stayed tune for more. Margret Thank you for getting me to write this. I promise for your sake I will be better. Thanks for being such a great cousin.
