A negative thought just entered my head—what if Jeanie is one of my readers! Yikes!cousin nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07827950417863497141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018156447654950017.post-39807514245648651522009-12-17T09:50:19.958-06:002009-12-17T09:50:19.958-06:00It's amazing what impact and lasting memories ...It's amazing what impact and lasting memories teachers can leave on ya!<br />I had one from Germany that utilized all 'extra' time spent indoors during recess and lunchtime when the weather was bad to make us all learn KNITTING! Yep, even the boys had to knit! She loved the music of the Nutcracker Suite and played that 33rpm record album (remember those? As the Riders in the Sky say "they were big enough to READ! and they didn't take 1 1/2 hours to open") for us religiously during all those times too!<br />As for today, I don't knit and I still wince when I hear the Dance of the SugarPlum Fairies!Mari of the NoMadsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018156447654950017.post-28358227065081262202009-12-16T22:59:51.418-06:002009-12-16T22:59:51.418-06:00Hi Fay!

Unfortunately, it worked and I am living proof of it! <br /><br />That woman was so weird! She made me and the rest of my class, eat caviar and borscht, or however you spell it, soup. It made me upchuck on my desk, and she told me that if I didn't play with Jeanie, the six foot tall wannabe jerk in my class, that nobody liked, she would flunk me.<br /><br />I played with Jeanie one day, after school, at her house, and she beat me up, and I went home crying and never went back to her house again! Jeanie was such a jerk and Ronnie really wanted to beat her up for me, but he didn't!<br /><br />Mrs. R. was fired that same year, right after the Beatles made their debute on the Ed Sullivan Show. I guess she was sent back to Russia, because Kennedy was murdered in Dallas.cousin nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07827950417863497141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018156447654950017.post-88285981038048807542009-12-16T21:58:50.734-06:002009-12-16T21:58:50.734-06:00"She was from Russia.

Unfortunately by now, it is too late to find out, because she was pretty old back then, probably about my age now, and I am pretty sure she must be dead by now or comma-tose in Uston, Texas in some nursing home."<br />Nancy, you have the most stellar sense of humour, you are so clever and hilarious!!DY_Goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08144156131094863511noreply@blogger.com
