    Whoever was commenting on the moon the other day when Phil brought Val home. We had that exact moon about 8:30 Saturday evening, same shape and location in the sky.

    I think the commet backfired.

    Holly, woman up, go home and start working. Don’t stop until you’re finished, don’t let yourself get distracted and do better than you think you can. Trust me, working under pressure is a great lesson to learn.

    I gelieve that if you check again, you’ll find the moon was tipped the other way. That may depend on where you are on this little globe of ours, though. From where I am, in mid-western Canada, the moon had just set by 8:30 pm.

    Up here in Canada a while back we had a teacher who did the unthinkable; he gave a 0 to students who didn’t do the work! The school administration and the board were aghast, because “not doing the work doesn’t mean the student didn’t learn.” Oddly, though, parents, other teachers, and most other people in Canada (including me) were ready to canonize him!

    Back to the desks, my desk would have been named “Messy Bessy.”

    We didn’t have many papers in my high school and none at all in middle school because the teachers were not serious about academics like they were about sports. But papers were so rare and it was a such a big deal that it was easy to prepare and do a little at a time. This looks more like college where the kid is expected to have self discipline.
