I don't want you to get bored looking at me and hubby in the garden last year, so I'll show it to you in the daylight, my refuge where the foxes wander.
There is not much that many of you don't know about me now, I enjoy a good laugh and if I can find one I will. If I can make someone smile my day is complete. I enjoy people and people watching but do not suffer fools easily, mainly because my dad told me I would be one when I grew up, and I think he may have been right.
I was born in Yorkshire and the extended family are still there but we now live in Staffordshire, we being my husband of 33 years and our two sons, well one of them has left and lives with his partner a girl whom we love dearly.
My latest hobby is writing and from this I am learning a great deal from and about people, that write.
My latest, latest thing to keep me occupied is making myself a nice new fleece top, it's getting cold and my old one; which must be 12 years old has had to be sent to a better place and I miss it already RIP>

The Difference Between A Teacher And An Educator
Blog Posted:12/9/2012 7:10:00 AM

 

According to a news report, a certain private school in Washington recently was faced with a unique problem.
 A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to experiment and  use lipstick. They would put it on in the bathroom.
That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they would then press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints.
 Every night, the maintenance man would remove the lip prints and the next day the girls would go back in the bathroom, use the lippy and leave new lip prints on the mirror.
Finally the principal decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man....She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night and it was taking up to much time.
 To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required.
 He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it.

Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.
 There are teachers, and then there are educators...
