Hmm, I would probably include "why algebra in any grade?" but since you are a math teacher, I am sure you must advocate some algebra.
I didn't know you liked big band music! Very cool!
Hi Theresa
Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. I'm not sure how you found me, but I'm glad you did. Come back anytime...you're always welcome.
I've enjoyed my visit here. I read your meme and also read your 100 things so I feel I know quite a bit about you.
Hugs!

Hi Theresa,
I enjoyed reading your lists. I'm also attracted by a sense of humor in friends. I enjoyed laughing at some of your answers, ha.
I definitely have the camera bug. I laughed when you mentioned that about me shooting photos from the car. The scary thing will be if I start doing it when I'm driving and am not stopped at a light. They might have to pass laws to protect the roads from people like me, ha. Take care, Carver
I ♥ your "8 Things I Want to do Before I Die." :)
Something tells me you like Nicholas Sparks! My favorite is "A Walk to Remember." (Dreamy sigh!)
OH...MY...GOODNESS! I ♥ The Carpenters, John Denver, Billy Joel, The Sound of Music, and the Partridge Family...but PLEASE don't tell my kids about that last one, haha! :D
Without a sense of humor, life is dead, lost, isn't it? To me, that's the most important thing anyone can ever have in life!
Music - love it but don't usually pay any attention to who sings what piece and the name of the piece either. Or I haven't in many years. Although I do love Celine Dion and the Rightous Brothers! "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" - just call me Kirsti Alley in her role as Rebecca on Cheers! That song absolutely ALWAYS gets me!
Learning to balance work/life is a huge achievement. Most people never come close to this one. Enjoyed learning more about you.
Wow - this is a great list! Thank you for taking part - these are a great way to get to know our "friends" more!
