Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

QUESTION OF THE WEEK...08-03-2026
What was your most embarrassing moment in grade school?
In grade school girls had to wear dresses. I was wearing a dress with the skirt sewn on to the waist. (1st grade). We were playing freeze tag on the playground and a guy pulled the hem of my dress to slow me down so he could tag me and ripped the skirt completely off the waistline. I was mortified
I was on the merry-go-round at recess and the wind blew up my skirt. I heard laughter and realized I had not taken off my fluffy PJ bottoms. I ran crying all the way home and changed into my underwear.

ReplyDeleteI am sorry and know why that memory has stayed with you.
DeleteBeing no good at sports, it was always being chosen last or almost last for teams. Why the PE teachers have to do it this way is a mystery to me.
ReplyDeleteI would have picked you first Mimi
