Things I Can't Believe


Things I can't believe are all around.
I can't believe that I graduated from High school 40 years ago. Where did all that time go?
I can't believe that I haven't blogged since August. A teacher truly spends too much time thinking about school!
I can't believe that yesterday I watched bird drama unfold in my classroom. Do I have a story for you! Some how a bird was caught in some embroidery floss. It tried to fly out of the nesting area and couldn't. So two of its friends tried to help they lifted it over the glassed in area. Then it was on the perch and still stuck. It tried to fly and was knocked off. The two friends tried and succeeded in bringing it back onto the perch. But then it strangled itself when it next tried to fly. So this poor thing hung there while we watched and its friends tried to help it. Too sad. It is now in Bird heaven. We paused for a moment of silent meditation.

I can't believe that this morning it was still there, but at 8:30 maintenance pried the bird feeder off the wall.
I can't believe that for the first time ever I was in the Talawanda homecoming parade.
I couldn't believe that the best they could do was get me a size 4 X-way too large. I can't believe that I am so tired that I am going to bed by 9:30.
