ten things tuesday...

Ten things that begin with the letter F:

1) Faye: my middle name, taken from my father's father's name.

2) Fiction: what I spent a lot of time reading this summer.

3) Fitz and the Tantrums: a band I discovered and lurve!


4) Flickering firelight: it's mesmerizing.

5) File folders: I love organizing my papers at school in cool folders. My students seem to appreciate it, too.

6) Family: we are close and I relish those bonds.

7) Friends: they are such a diverse group of people. And it seems like I collect them.

8) Ford: some people mock but I've had excellent Ford Tauruses.

9) Feet: I do not have a thing about feet--I love getting pedicures!

10) Fiasco: I taught this word to my students last year--they say I use words they don't understand and I asked them to give me an example. I will never forget them trying to figure out what a fiasco is! They know what it means now, though, and it's one of our magic words. :-)
