Does Size Really Matter?

It's another Monday morning. The only thing that got me going this morning was thinking there are only 4 more weeks of school....WRONG....there are 5 more weeks....grumble, grumble. Oh well, we still have one bad weather day and our last 3 days are only 1/2 days anyway since we have finals!

2 weeks and 2 days until we can find out what this little banana fish is. It gets old calling it an 'IT'.

This whole no exercising thing is making my butt big...ok so maybe it is really the eating part that is making my butt big! I'm just hungry all the time. It is a good thing that I like fruits, vegetables, and yogurt otherwise I'd be a whale already!

I am growing out of some of my smaller maternity clothes so I decided to wear a new skirt today. It's pretty cute-right above the knee length denim with some embroidery on it. I took 2 tags off of the skirt and assumed that I was done (YEP, you see where this is going don't you!). I guess at 6:45 I didn't inspect the garment as properly as I should have because 2nd period (oh yes I had already walked around the school and gone through 1st period) one of my girls said "Mrs. Howell, I think you still have a tag on your skirt!"....OH YES I DID! It couldn't have been just a little price tag hanging out from under my shirt, it was the long stick on tag that boldly tells what size the skirt is about ten times!!! I guess that the up side is that in most maternity clothes I wear a small....at least it wasn't XX-LARGE plastered across my butt!

An Easter to Remember

Ok...my grandmother has never really been the comedian of the family. I'm not sure that she really intended to be this weekend, but she definitely stole the show! We all sat down for a lovely Easter lunch. We ate, talked, ate, laughed, and ate some more. Between dinner and dessert my grandmother proclaimed that she had an announcement!

(PAUSE: let's remember her condition shall we....she's 82 years old, on 24/7 oxygen, not real stable on her feet, incontinent often, and has Alzheimers. About a year ago we took all of her panties away and put depends in her panty drawer so that when she messed all over herself we could just throw them away. At the time she didn't even realize that we had done it, or just didn't care.)

Back to the announcement.... She stood up and declared that while the whole family was at their house over New Years for their anniversary, someone stole her panties and she wanted them back!

(PAUSE: She's told us this before. She has actually called each family member previously and accused them of taking her panties....the scary part is that a couple of us have honestly confessed to her and she doesn't remember that either! We might as well tell her it was Colonel Mustard in the ballroom with the candle stick!)

As she is making her announcement she stands up and says. "Until someone confesses and brings me my panties, or y'all take up a collection to buy me new panties this is what I am wearing!"

SHE IS WEARING MY GRANDDADS UNDERWEAR! YES....she REALLY is! I'm pretty sure there wasn't a dry eye at the table from laughing so hard! Is this the appropriate time to discuss table etiquette! DON'T DROP TROU AT THE DINNER TABLE GRANNY!

All of this never even phased my granddad. I think he is so use to her....oddness...lately that he doesn't even pay attention! Kind of like when she feeds their birds scrambled eggs. He says nothing, and cleans all of the eggs out of their cage later. Granny, birds don't like to eat eggs, that’s cannibalism!

Getting to see everyone, and the kids is always a highlight. However, this Easter will always be remembered as the one when granny dropped trou!

Strange things...

1. The first and probably strangest is my tongue. no it is not an odd shape and I have no earthly idea how to roll it. When I get stressed my tongue...well...kinda sheds...in patches! It is the weirdest looking thing. It is called geographia. Last week when everything was so nuts around our house...this is what my tongue looked like by the end of the week! Yeah...gross huh....

2. I don't believe in feeding dogs people food. I never have. However, I eat my breakfast on the way to school every morning and I never eat the last bite. Why, you ask? It is because I save it for our superintendent’s dog that greets everyone as they walk in the school doors. Yes I guess that makes me a hypocrite, I would scream if someone fed Annie people food but I give Oreo some everyday! I guess there IS a difference since Oreo is an outside dog...if he gets sick no one has to clean it up!

3. I know that my tummy is growing, and that people think it is cute...but do they have to ask me to lift my shirt up...somehow that seems a little private to me! My mom and I talked about this a couple of months ago because people at her office want to see and feel. I'm too the point that feeling is ok (it wasn't when my pooch was just fat)...but really...can you just look at it through the shirt? For family I don't mind lifting the shirt and giving you a gander, that's ok...but do you have to take a picture? It is just so weird to me. Under MUCH duress do I raise my shirt for my mother to take a picture every week...and if you notice there are few that I smile in. I know, I know I will enjoy looking at them later...but it just bothers me. The pic to the right is @ 16 weeks. Yes my boobs are still bigger than my belly!

4. I don't care what we are having, and I am not really that anxious to find out (yes, I know this is weird). Yes I want to know, don't get me wrong, and I will love whatever it is. But, at this point the biggest reason I want to know is so that I can decorate (my favorite past time!). My sweet husband wants to know tomorrow! Tomorrow would be fine with me, but a few weeks would be too. I guess maybe because it isn't all real to me yet (when does it get real?) even after 2 sonograms. Maybe because I've only gained 6 1/2 pounds, maybe because it isn't kicking me to death yet, maybe because I can't hold it.......I DON'T KNOW...but this whole thing has to get real before the baby gets here right? RIGHT? I certainly hope so!

5. My stomach has literally grown in the last 36 hours! It is the weirdest thing...just poof and it was there! There was just a small little bump....now it is a little larger bump. This pic is 17 1/2 weeks (the color is all screwey when I upload it...) Now maybe I'll actually look pregnant not just over weight! My boobs are still bigger than my belly though....

Aaaaahhhhh.....

It is amazing how much better you feel when you accomplish things! We worked in the yard all day yesterday and it looks sooooo much nicer...15 bags of leaves and grass later...how could it not look better!!! All we have to do now is fertilize and sit back and watch it grow! (I'm not going to mention the fact that once it grows then you have to mow it again! I'm not bursting that bubble today!)Now our yard looks kinda like all the neighbors that hire lawn companies! MY yard guy was pretty tired though...having to do most of the tough stuff by himself!

Ya know it must be hard being the only boy around here in the fam'...you have to do all the guy stuff for the grandparents, parents, and our house all by yourself! Even if we do have a boy, it will be a long time before he's much help!

Please and Thank You!

What are we teaching our children? Are please and thank you that hard to say! Does it just not roll off the tongue as nicely as F#$@ and S#!%! They can apparently say those words REAL well(they are such potty mouths!). What happened to a little bit of manners...common courtesy?

I'm not just talking about students....It goes all the way up to people my age! How hard is this! Their mothers should be ashamed! When you ask someone to do something for you, say PLEASE. When they do something for you say, Thank You! I realize that this day in age chivalry is almost dead... but common courtesy? It makes me not want to do nice things for certain people. It is almost like they EXPECT it when they don't say it....and even if they do, can they not be sweet? It's not that hard to say the words and give a small smile...or even no smile...I could handle that!

I hope that my children are polite and courteous to other people. I know that there will be days that they mess up, but overall they WILL say please and thank you!

WARNING....Kleenax may be needed to read this post

Ok you know I talked about how Alex was on her last leg yesterday....well apparently she really was. She wound up having some kind of seizure or stroke yesterday afternoon. I took her to the vet and he recommended that we put her to sleep, so we did. WE ARE SOOOO SAD.

Ya’ know, I have NEVER in my life been so attached to an animal before. She was such a wonderful, sweet, calm, thoughtful dog. Yes thoughtful....she came and checked on me every morning while I was in the bathroom getting ready (she's done this her whole life)... not expecting to get petted just to check on me...she always let Annie(the other dog) go first...she always knew when we felt bad and needed some attention. Her favorite spot to lay was usually under Koby's feet at our breakfast bar. In our grieving last night we quietly joked at how we were sitting at the bar...both of us had our feet up off the ground out of her way, since that was her spot.

Annie is sad too. She is 11 years old and has been with Alex all her life. Poor girl, doesn't know what's going on. We tried to get her to come and sleep with us last night and she wouldn't. She was laying behind the dinning table this morning and wouldn't come out from there either. I'm going to go get her some bones and treats this afternoon. Eating always makes ME feel better when I'm sad.

She was the best dog EVER. We're gonna miss her a lot.

I think I have learned not to say the phrase "what else can happen this week". HOPEFULLY it will get better!

....

I couldn't decide on a title for this entry:

What Tha!
One More Thing...
Who needs a Refrigerator Anyway?
When it Rains it Pours
As Dead as a Doornail
Game Off (PLEASE!)

The three of us (me, Koby, and Mom) have worked our butts off for the past week, and all weekend. REALLY I SWEAR MINE IS SMALLER! The hunters were supposed to leave yesterday morning after the morning hunt. They wound up staying not only through lunch (and eating all the leftovers in the lodge's fridge) but through dinner too! My mom and I took them pizza...we weren't about to cook another meal! We finally get home last night a little before 9:00, Koby was closer to 9:30 (hoping for a little rest) and our refrigerator is dead....and apparently had been for MANY days! Everything on the freezer side especially was not only completely thawed, but warm too. It was nasty and the LAST thing any of us wanted to deal with. (Thanks mom for helping).

Now maybe we can get a little rest after Koby gets home at 8 and after I go to Bunco. I know, I know, I could miss Bunco...but it is REALLY hard to miss! We only get together once a month and I might miss some really good gossip! Important stuff! I am not worried about our group not having enough people to play Bunco....because we don't play anyway and haven't in probably over a year!

Oh- and as if we don't have enough on our plate, time wise and financially. Koby wants another dog! I love dogs, especially golden retriever or lab puppies they are soo sweet! But, we have 2 dogs already and a baby on the way...is that not enough!(love you babe- don't agree on this one) I realize that Alex is on her last leg...but she has been for for2 years! We don't need ANOTHER dog that poops, pees, and pukes on the floor right now! 3 dogs and a baby...YIKES! It sounds like we could have our own sitcom!

And (one more thing) the Dr.'s office called and said that my cervix is on the small side of normal. They will repeat the sonogram in 6 weeks to make sure it is not thinning. If I start having contractions I should call immediately.

The Wild, WILD, West...

Ok...I've always been one of those people that starts in the middle of a story. So, lets go back a bit.

Koby is managing a taxidermy shop now, but he is doing hunts on the side. The ranch that he is hunting on is a 5000 acre high fence ranch about 30 min or less from our house. Koby wasn't going to do turkey hunts this year but about a month ago some hunters call and wanted to book one, so of coarse Koby said yes.(side note: we also have another hunt the weekend after Easter)

The rancher says he is going to build a lodge for the hunters and guides to stay in for next year. For now they are using a fairly nice double wide trailer. It has 3 bedrooms, 2 beds in each room.(there were 6 hunters this trip so Koby, Wayne(guide) and I stayed at our house)

I forgot to mention that this house was NAKED when we got there. ABSOLUTELY nothing in it!! We furnished everything! Soooo since Koby works until 8 every night that means I did A LOT of running around town, worrying, and list making last week trying to make sure everything got done.

Another side note....but a BIG part of the weekend: I took Friday off to help get everything ready for the hunt. At about 11:00 I realized that I was spotting, and soon after started cramping. I called my Dr. and immediately got off my feet. We wound up having to go to the hospital for a sonogram mid afternoon. Thank goodness everything turned out ok. They said that there were no holes in the walls, and that my cervix was not trying to dilate. But that I was putting too much strain on my body and I am not superwoman and to take it easier. ( I was only walking 2 miles at lunch, working out at 4, and running errands until 8!)

On a little bit lighter note it looks like our kiddo is going to be a thumb sucker! It is pretty cool the things you can see with a sonogram! We did try to find out the sex of the baby but it sat there with it's legs crossed the whole time! Having this sonogram means that we probably won't have the 18 week sonogram so the next one will be at 22 or 24 weeks! Which means that we won't find out what the baby is until then. I'm just glad that everything is ok.

On with the hunt: Koby had asked me to cook for this hunt. That means out of bed at 3:30 and back in bed anywhere between 10 and 12. There were 8 men that had to be fed 3 good sized meals a day with dessert! With all that had gone on I was suppose to take it easy for the weekend....This is where I am glad that I live close to my Mom.....SuperMom to the rescue! I cooked breakfast, the guys left by 5ish (that's AM), I cleaned up and then took a little nap! My mom was there by midmorning and helped get lunch together, serve lunch, clean up from lunch, start cooking dinner, and Sunday night she even stayed through dinner to help serve and clean up....even then we didn't get home and in bed until 11 and I couldn't tell you when Koby got home. THANKS MOM!

So, here I am back at school on Monday morning. Koby had to cook breakfast for the hunters this morning (can't cook and get to school) and then they went out one more time to try to kill some turkeys. They had already killed 5, hopefully they got a few more today.

I'll try to post a tummy picture later this week. I thought I would be bigger than this at 4 months....I'M NOT COMPLAINING THOUGH! Soon enough I will be as big as a house!

I Can't Tell Time...

Ok...I was hungry (as usual) and smelling the aroma of food (our cooking class is making lunch for all of the teachers)... looked at my watch and going along with my stomach and my nose thought that my watch said 11:45 instead of 10:45. As I grabbed my keys and drink and proceeded to try to kick students out of my room as quickly as possible...one of them kindly broke the news that we still had an hour until lunch! Grrrrrrrrrrr!

My head is spinning today! First of all I'm trying to finish the last task of a grant that we have received for the past couple of years that is due tomorrow....BUT I am taking the day off tomorrow so I have to do it today. I am also submitting another grant application that has to be finished today, get lesson plans done for a sub for tomorrow, organize and get info out about our school wide April Wellness Challenge(along with handing out their pedometers), and collect the rest of the jewelry $ where people took stuff and said "oh I'll bring you a check later"!

I'm taking off tomorrow to help Koby finish getting stuff ready for his hunt. Granted, we started with a blank slate. The house was completely empty, no beds, no towels, no shower curtains, no kitchen table, some places no blinds, and absolutely nothing in any kitchen cabinet. BUT when you start getting it together 7 days before the hunt starts...things are bound to get a little hairy at the end! So that's where we stand now. Not to mention I am cooking for the entire hunt! Once we are out there and the last minute stuff is done and the last minute groceries (meat, milk, etc.) are bought then it will be fine. Cooking is the easy part.

Almost lunch Gotta run! :)

Hip-Hip Horray!

Happy Birthday to You,

Happy Birthday to You,

Happy Birthday to HEATHER,

Happy Birthday to You!!

My Favorite Recipe....this week!

This recipe is soooo easy and soooo good. It is just different enough to be REALLY good!

Chicken in Wine Sauce

4 chicken breasts
2 can cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom)
1 soup can of white wine (the alcohol cooks out! Instead of buying a real bottle of wine you can get the cooking wine over by the vinegar and salad dressing)
Smoked Swiss & Cheddar Cheese (it doesn't have to be out of the deli, Kraft makes it)
Stuffing Mix
You can add mushrooms or big pieces of onion to the sauce if you want

Place chicken in glass dish sprayed with PAM. Mix soup and wine over heat, pour over chicken. Cover each breast with a slice of Smoked Swiss & Cheddar cheese. Top the cheese with 1 heaping tablespoon of dry stuffing mix (right out of the box!). Pour just a little melted butter on the stuffing mix. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

I served it over wheat rice.

THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE COOKED IN A LONG TIME!!!!

I knew it was coming...but I'm still not ready!

No this blog is not about the baby...it's about my 10 year class reunion! TEN YEAR....TEN! Koby and I have been talking about our reunions being this summer for about 6 months. It was really ok with me until I got the "E-Mail"....It really IS happening...It really HAS been TEN years. This is so weird. I'm still wondering if I'm old enough to have a baby, and I'm certainly not old enough to have a reunion! That's for old people!

There were over 600 of us that graduated, how many will actually show up for this event? Will this just be a reunion of the football team and the pot heads...WHO KNOWS...this could get interesting!

On a side note, spring is in the air! No I'm not talking about the weather, I'm talking about the strong aroma (or stench!) of cologne that clouds the high school hall way. Bucks rut in the fall and high school boys rut in the spring!

It's fun to stand in the hall between classes and watch their attempt at suaveness! Most of the time it looks like a little puppy trying to get the attention of an older dog (not that I am comparing our students to dogs!). You know how the puppy is always chasing the other dog, biting at it's heals, chewing on it's ears until it gets the attention that it has been begging for.....YEP that's some of our kiddos! Then there are others that actually have the charm and charisma down…we’ll be peeling them off of some unsuspecting girl in the next few weeks!

Oh Yeah, the Dr.'s appt went fine. We got to hear the heart beat again. That was cool. It's kind of reassuring to hear it and know that everything is still going ok in there. We will have the gender sonogram on April 18th. I'll be glad to see the little bugger and know that all of it's parts are in tact and there's not an elbow coming out of it's nose or anything!

I've always heard people say that they really don't care want they were having as long as it was healthy.....I always thought they were full of it. Well I REALLY feel that way. I DON'T care what it is. I'm more excited to see on the sonogram that it is healthy than to know its gender. Yes that part will be nice too....but it isn't my top priority. Hmmmmm maybe all of those other moms to be knew what they were talking about.

Ya know those days that you know from the get-go things just don't seem to want to go your way! That's today! I have chased and chased and CHASED my tail and I'm pretty sure that I am in the same spot that I started in at 7:00 this morning! I CAN'T believe that it is only Wednesday! I have put out more fires today than all the Texas fire departments combined!

I have a Dr.'s appointment this afternoon...I'll give ya a full report tomorrow!

TTFN

:)

Spring Break was great! I feel like I can conquer the world! I think it is a combination of getting PLENTY of rest last week, and being in the second trimester. I got tired of being tired all the time!

I officially can't wear any of my real pants! I am still at the stage of just feeling fat rather than pregnant. I assume that will pass in a few weeks as things start to grow more.

It's Christmas at school! All of the tech 'toys' that I ordered are in! I can't wait to hook them all up! We have webcams, a scanner, a color printer.....all kinds of new stuff!

Ya know, I would enjoy cooking a lot more if someone else would do the grocery shopping for me and all I had to do is get it out of the fridge!

Why can't insurance policies be easier to understand? I just want to know what they will pay when I'm on maternity leave... THAT'S IT! Shouldn't that be real easy to spell out somewhere in the giant manual?

Spring Break Here I Come!

I am so excited that next week is Spring Break! I have so much stuff that I need to get done around the house. I can't wait to wear my pj's all day and just get stuff organized! I am use to having a summer to get this kind of stuff done...and since I worked at the Service Center last year from 8-5 nothing got cleaned out! I have one closet that has not been TOUCHED since we moved in a year ago. It just happens to be the one in the baby's room...so I should get on that!

It's amazing how my definition of a successful Spring Break has changed over the years! Not that doing those old things wouldn't still be fun(If my body recovered like it use to)! There are just so many other responsibilities now that seem to take priority. Ya know...It doesn't bother me...I will still be able to count this as another successful Spring Break!

Sex for dumbies....

Okay this is insane! At my school we now have 5 girls that are anywhere from sophomores to seniors that are pregnant! Do they not know what causes this...and that there are ways to prevent it! Where are there mothers!

I am almost 28 years old and I am already worried if I am ready to have this baby! I can't imagine if I was 17! They don't have a care in the world about it though. they are still to caught up in their own little world saying things like "I'll have the baby in time to play basketball in the fall", "I won't have to worry about it for the first few months, it'll just sleep anyway", "We're going to get married, everything will be perfect", "My mom will take care of the baby, she knows how to do all that stuff"..........WHERE IS THEIR SENSE OF REALITY! At what point do they realize that this baby isn't going to be like all the other dollies they play with!

I worry if we will be ok financially, about buying the safest car seat on the market, about eating a balenced diet and exercising, starting a college fund, which baby monitor is the best, what toys are best for brain stimulation, and...even if we will be good parents...

When will all of these worries kick in for these girls? Will they get past their selfish high school selves to realize that soon life will not be all about them?

I'll get off my soap box now. It just breaks my heart that they are so nieve and clueless.

Almost Friday!

Lets see...we'll start with this mornings bathroom trip at 5:30am. I ran into the door frame WITH MY FACE! I didn't bust my lip but it is swollen and I do have some scabby spots on it! Koby kindly offered to buy me a night light! Thanks babe! :)

Koby gets up at 5:50, I usually make myself get up at 6:50. I was wide awake when his alarm went of and was hungry for fish sticks! I'm not sure which is scarrier...that I wanted them...or that I found some in the garage freezer! I had a great breakfast!

I've decided that a Cinnamon Dolce Latte from Starbucks can't be good for me everyday, so I've been attempting to recreate them at home. Honestly, it's not quite the same but as long as it has cinnamon and milk and decaf coffee then I guess I'm getting close!

I'm ready for Koby to not work 50 hours a week.....and really from the time he leaves to the time he gets home it is about 63 hours a week. It is so hard when he leaves before I get up, and by 8:00 when he gets home I'm already showered and almost ready for bed. When we do see each other we are both so tired that we just grunt at each other like cave men! Hopefully that will be all over at the end of the month.

I am sooooo ready to go to Fort Worth this weekend!!!!!!!

Random Thoughts

Do you get more freckles when you are pregnant? I looked down in the tub last night and I have 5...5 new freckles on my stomach!

Sewage is suppose to go down the drain...not back up!

At some point I am suppose to get less tired. I wish I knew when that was so I could start planning things that need to get done!

Not only is the hair on my head growing faster, so is the hair on my legs!

Since it is only my friends and family that read this I don't mind announcing that I am officially a 34 DD now...AND I STILL HAVE 6 MONTHS TO GO!

Why is it so hard for certain students to get to my class on time. One more tardy and they have ISS...what a stupid reason to go to ISS!

Is Jonathan ever going to Blog again?

I will be 3 months on Friday and I have only gained 3 pounds, Wooo-Hoo! (I'm pretty sure it is all in my chest!)

When will people EVER learn that you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. If you'll just be sweet, or ask nicely I will do anything you want! Otherwise you might just be SOL!

We get to leave in 3 days and go to Fort Worth to play!!!

Problem!

Ok so maybe mine isn't a PROBLEM....More of a concern. It's my belly button ring. Ya know, it was really cute 7 years ago when I got it.....now it's not so cute anymore. Not just because I'm pregnant....but because I'm almost 28 and my body doesn't look like it did when I was 21. I don't really pay much attention to it, and 99% of the time I don't even remember that it is there. It was a silly thing I did when I was young.

I know that I am going to have to take it out before too long when my skin begins to stretch over the ends of it. Not a big deal, right? So why can't I just take it out now.....I keep telling myself "I'll take it out tomorrow", or "I'll take it out this weekend"....as those days have come and gone....I still have it!!! Why am I so attached to this dumb thing that no one sees anyway? If there was a REAL diamond in the sucker that would be a WHOLE other story! I guess it is kind of like holding on to my youth a little bit. I've never been one to hold on to or be sentimental about miscellaneous THINGS so this is kind of odd for me. I'm still not sure why I can't just take it out!

New Topic! I've had a couple of people ask me how to post a comment if they don't have, and don't want a blog account. They just want to comment from time to time. Here's how you do it. At the bottom of each post it tells you the # of comments made for that post. Click on it. On the next page on the right hand side you can type in your comments. If you don't have a login, underneath the comment box choose the button 'Other' then just type in your name. Then click 'publish your comment'. That's it, it's that easy!

Game On!!!

This is fun!

If you could compete in one Winter Olympic Event what would it be?

Curling! There is absolutely no athletic ability required...just a little bit of precision! It is also played inside so I wouldn't have to worry about being cold!

Do you tee-tee in the shower?
If I need to go...it all goes to the same place!

If you could change one thing about your appearance what would it be?

My butt(I would just chop it off!) and my pointy little nose! I'm not sure what kind of nose I would want though....just a different one.

What are you proudest of?

Being married for almost 2 years. Ya know, people tell you when you get married that you will have to work at it...but at that point you don't understand. Not that our marriage has been real hard or anything, but it is something that you have to work at everyday. I like Dr. Phil's explanation that in everything you say and do in your relationship you are either contributing to it or contaminating it....there is no in between. If you really think about that it's true.

What is your greatest accomplishment?

1. I learned early the value of a dollar. How to save $ and how to spent wisely. I think that has really benefited me in where I am today. No credit cards in my house!!! I can have medium priced nice things without having the biggest and best of everything.(I love Target!)

2. Getting my masters degree and being dedicated enough to get a 3.8 GPA

What is your best characteristic?

Physical- I might as well say my boobs! I might not be able to say that in a few months!

Other- that I'm honest, that I am able to see multiple sides to a situation(whether I agree with it or not I understand where people are coming from), and that I feel things good or bad, for me or someone else, deeply(yeah that means I'm a mush). Koby always jokingly tells me that I'm a Howell now and I don't (or shouldn't) have 'feelers' anymore!

Now if you have a blog put your answers to these questions there, if you don't write it in the comments.....and if you don't want to answer ALL of the questions...It doesn't matter it's not for a grade!!!
