in between the time that Gramps fixes them breakfast and takes them to school:

girls sleeping 

I think I caught one baby blue open on the littlest, though

Boy sleeping 

They didn’t even stir when I took the photos. We had to wake them up to go on with Gramps to school. Gotta love that French toast, right? Right

Today is Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work day.

451 Press asked its writers to have their posts written today by a son or daughter, or an adopted son or daughter. So, Knitting Passion has a guest writer today – my granddaughter. Wander over and see what she has to say – and see her shining face, too. Thanks, Miss M. for sharing with us!

oh, man, that goes way, way, WAY back!

Figured I had best get in here and post or you would wonder what I was doing with all of my time – heh! At least I didn’t say “spare” time, right?

This is the week of the big semi-annual training. We give it to new staff members, board members, people from other agencies, and general public. In the time I have been with the agency I think our largest class was 7. We had 16 today! And, we had 23 pre-registered!!

It always happens that we lose some between registration and the first day, but SIXTEEN! My boss is well pleased.

Usually I only have one or two places where I speak to the students. This time I have four. Plus, as the peson who does all the “scut” work I am in the room most of the time. It is part of my job to make sure the students sign in every morning, that they have paid their fee the first morning, that the coffee is made and the tea water is hot, that munchies are fresh and available, etc.

Today I talked about the agency history and mission, and about the program I oversee. Tomorrow I will do two different presentations – one for the first time, and only because the usual presenter is in Anchorage for a conference. Friday I will do another presentation, plus make sure all of the loose ends are tied up and the students know what their next step might be.

okay – I don’t spend a lot of time on You tube – don’t have that much time to spend – but I can see where folks could get addicted to seeing funny after funny –

Phyllis shared the sneezing panda and I went on from there –

loved the little girl with the flying toast. Infectious giggles – and who hasn’t heard that particular whine when the toast won’t go back into the toaster fast enough, huh?

I’m just posting links because I don’t have an account and such to post the videos here. Bear with me – told you, not enough time. 😉 Enjoy the Saturday morning giggles.

than late, right? Right.

While I tried to do this last week, I understand that it should be done today – soooooooo
