It's difficult for me here in California because the public high schools where I grew up were phenomenal - my senior year essentially doubled as my freshman year of college (credited.)
What exists here is . . . not the same.
I went to Catholic School Pre K - 8th grade, so I was allowed to go to the public high school, lol. Luckily, we are a small suburban area, so the school was nice, great teachers, no real drama or trouble. I loved it. I think my graduating class was maybe 100-120 kids.
If nothing changes too much, I would have no problem sending my future offspring there.

Here it is all economics. The wealthy suburbs have excellent schools. The city schools are improving. The rural schools are lacking. Follow the $$$ and you get a better school

Whew. Just finished watching Stepanek V Blake Tennis Match. Now THAT'S tense/tennis!
Now, you couldn't call that cookie-cutter tennis.
No, that's for sure. They obviously disliked each other...lots of challenges.
Good morning all! Anybody else here like biscuits and gravy for breakfast? I DO.
Miss P and her family were kind enough to treat me to dinner and "Hairspray" last night for a late birthday gift. It was great fun! The movie reminded me of how much I loved the show in NY.
Aww, I LOVE Miss P! Hi Mamie, good morning!
Does insomnia count if you sleep all day?
I'm having night daydreams about smoked salmon tonight...
I want THAT but without the bagel.
Good morning Shira.
That looks good! "Waiter - lox and bagel. Hold the bagel"
Pretty much my life for the next while. And I don't mind in the least.
My other favorite will likely be "BLT Sandwich, hold the bread".
Any exciting plans today, Mamie?
Shi Shi - go to sleep! :)
Just got back from taking Dad and Step Mom to the airport. The NJ Turnpike is no fun at 4:30am. Time to attempt to get some more sleep. Once I wake up, my mother already has a list of "To Do's" for me, since I barely saw her all week. Oy!
Enjoy your morning!
Yeah yeah, I'll get there.
Sleep well - you'll probably still wake up WAY before me, so have a good day!
Just the thrill and excitement of going to work - which I have to do now. God willing, I'll be back here in a couple of hours. I'm expecting a busy week but I'm HOPING for quiet....
See you all later!
Wow, you go to work EARLY, Mamie! I'm impressed.
Both options look amazing. Sadly this is my reality.

We actually had a couple of raindrops fall a few minutes ago - for the first time in MONTHS! Unfortunately, it was literally only a couple of drops
It's pouring here today. I thought it was going to be another gorgeous day. Sucks for pattifan's last day here.

Eww. . .I think being on this diet had skewed my brain. I looked sideways at a Rice Cake yesterday!
It is cottage cheese and it's yummy! Yeah, right!
