I'm officially bowing out of NaBloPoMo. I don't normally give up on things, but this, I can't hack it! I tried, I failed. I don't even have a valid excuse why I didn't post on the 14th other than I just completely forgot again and was never even at the computer when I got home. And Friday? I just didn't post because I knew I was giving up. Sorry ladies! Too hectic. But of course I'm still posting in general, so it's not like I'm giving up completely. That, I won't do:)
This weekend, so far, has been nothing but running errands. Here, there, over there, across the street, and back again. I went to refill our ink cartridges at our favorite place, Rapid Refill. I got there, parked, walked up to the door, and BAM, they are out of business. I couldn't believe it! I was just there not too long ago! I was so sad. It only costs about $16 to refill our cartridges there, and at Ink Stop or any of the office supply places it's atill at least $30. I was so bummed to shell out $30. And even more bummed that Rapid Refill went out of business. So sad.
To equal out the sadness with something good, there is a new smoothie place that just opened by our house. It's call Tropical Smoothie Bar. I reeeeeaaaaally wanted to go there yesterday but Kenny wasn't with me and I knew it just wouldn't be fair to go without him since he is the king of smoothie drinking. The man lives for it. So when I came home I told him about it and I think we are going today. Yuuuummy.
I have a whole bag full of papers to grade this weekend. I'm not looking forward to it either. Ugh. I put it off and put it off. There isn't much to grade in first and second grade, most papers get checks or stars since there are not ABCDE grades on report cards until 3rd grade. But I still have to score their assessments and writings and so on. So that's what I'm doing. Conferences and the end of the trimester are NEXT week. Gulp. I'm nowhere near ready. Geez I'm behind everywhere!
Enjoy Sunday!

Ummmmmm Linds? Trimester or Semester? Read your blog again, LOL.
I admire you for sticking with it as long as you did! WOWZA!
Me. I'm lucky if I post two times a week. I barely get a chance to read other blogs anymore. Ugh.
LIFE just gets in the way . . .
Forgive me for laughing when I saw the title of your post in my sidebar! ha! But you made it about 1/2 way! That's further than I did!!!
Good luck with those papers!! urgh!
I can't write every day for a month no matter how hard I try! I gave up before I started, so don't feel badly! :)
There are other Rapid Refill Ink stores around Detroit and they sell online too, depending on where you live.
Ha! Now you know why I never even started with NoBloPoMo!! I fail at too many other things to deliberately set myself up. :)
Good job sticking with it for as long as you did!
Good luck with the grading.
I'm behind too and can't seem to get everything done that needs to be done!! I hope you get caught up and at least have a good Thanksgiving break from school!
Take care - Kellan
