A touch of spring



Tallmadge Middle School has a very active Relay for Life team. One of the fund rasiser projects this year are daffodils. I received mine this week. I thought I would share the beauty with you.
I made another trip to the National First Ladies Library in Canton on Wednesday with eleven students. We spent an exciting day researching. In May we will return to make presentations in the Victorian style theater at the library.

Partial Tag Response

E tagged me last week. Here are seven random facts about me. I am supposed to tag seven people at the end of the post and link to their blogs. I am going to skip that part.
1. A long time ago I went swimming with friends off a boat on Lake Erie. The boat drifted away from me, and I had to be rescued. I jumped right back into the water after my rescue so I would not be scared to swim again.
2. I took Intermediate Swimming three times and never did pass. Possibly there is a connection with my number one fact.
3. I read The Love Letters by Madeleine L'Engle about every five years. This is my favorite book, although I really don't know why.
4. I was the only person in my OSU graduating class of thousands to have a Spanish major and a library science minor. Perhaps this is why I have always been able to find a job when I wanted one.
5. I took a trip to Belfast, Northern Ireland to hunt for ancestors. It was exciting and great fun. Too bad I did not locate any relatives.
6. I don't walk on yellow lines.
7. My boyfriend's brother ran over my saxophone with his car.
