let’s go wolves!

Watching the Timberwolves versus the Denver Nuggets in game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference series. We are up in the first half. Also watching the NFL draft. The Vikings first pick was a defensive tackle named Caleb Banks.

classroom planting day


Our class planted our seeds today. We had a lesson about parts of a biome and planted flowers and herbs. 

tree workout, flowers from friends and drive time




What a great day getting wood from the hunting shack, a ride with my favorite 15 year old and flowers from my friends the Khoruy family.

faculty follies

Had a fun time watching Ibby and the Grantsburg school raise money for dollars for scholars with a program called Faculty Follies. Ibby was a big part of coordinating and participating. Betty won the 50 50 raffle, but donated her winnings back to the cause. Each Grantsburg graduate gets $1,000 toward post secondary education. 

Also got to shop at the pink squirrel and the blueberry special today. 

Right away this morning I got a stress test. Looks like my heart is in good shape and I didn’t have a heart attack yesterday! Just have to keep my heart healthy. 








wild day

run Osten run!

I wasn’t able to see him run, but Osten placed 11th at the Hudson meet. His track spikes arrived after the race, but he borrowed some from his buddy M. He ran 17 second faster than his last meet. 


icky icky

I am down with a fever again! Last night I got home from school and couldn’t get off the couch. 101 fever took me down. Osten was a patient and sweet nurse getting me a puke bucket and calming my nerves. There was severe weather so I was mildly concerned, but ended up texting my principal and assistant telling them I couldn’t come to school. 

Got this great photo of a first grader showing me the reflective nature of the multiplication board. He blows my mind.
