Happy (Thankful) Thanksgiving
So amidst all the chopping and timetables (how can two trains get in at the same time?) and snow, I want to wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving. No matter your eating persuasion or family ties or travel plans, have a good time. We should be thankful for the country we live in, our family, our friends, our neighbors and our communities. This blog is a community and I appreciate the fellowship with people who care about public education (whether we all agree on how we get there).
Nobody gets through life alone.
So I am thankful for the continued good health in my family, my sons coming home back to the family fold and for the 14 years we had with our cat, Woody (he passed away unexpectedly at the vet's on Monday). We all will miss him especially his sister, Sofina.

And my thanks as well to all of the others whose comments here have taught me so much -- if I started with names, I would surely leave voices I value out. So I will just say -- thank you all.

So sorry to hear about your Kitty Melissa. He was a lucky cat to have a family who loved him for 14 years.
Melissa, so sorry about your kitty.
Hope all your chopping and prepping goes well, and so sorry about your kitty. We currently have 5 cats and one of them is 14 and is showing her age.

Anyways...Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! It is great to live in this sovereign nation, the greatest nation on God's green earth!!
Thank you so much for all you do. I'm a sub in Seattle (hoping against all hope for a FT high school LA position). I have written something that I would love to send to you, and if you feel compelled, I would love for you to publish it on your blog. Please email me if this is ok.
Best,

I am a newer minted teacher who is substituting in Seattle. I am also a parent who is looking into middle and high school for my son. I appreciate the education you offered in your blog. Your oommentaries are always enlightening and useful.
I am grateful to your blog and want to join others in thanking you for all you do and what you enable all the other bloggers to do in teaching us about education.
