Family is the most important. I have enjoyed your class more than any that I’ve had for quite awhile and wish you would consider an “Advanced Creative Writing,” course. I would be the first to sign-up. Take care and God bless you.Bulldaddy44https://www.blogger.com/profile/13301079695840376523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399904.post-13375244988899263792009-11-14T19:54:57.993-08:002009-11-14T19:54:57.993-08:00I know what you mean about routines.

The emails about our blog points and extra credit are always their like clockwork. I was shocked to not have those emails last Sunday. The first thing I thought was that something had to be wrong. I was glad to find out that you had been enjoying your family. I'm sure you needed that break.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09961002701043254289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399904.post-33533089696732754122009-11-13T11:56:25.226-08:002009-11-13T11:56:25.226-08:00This has been one of my two most favorite classes ...This has been one of my two most favorite classes this semester!<br /><br />I've enjoyed reading your blogs and your essays.

I'm sure you will enjoy winter break as much as I am going to.

I’m not sure why. It’s not like the likeness of a dead person is a particularly pleasant topic. I just like the word.<br /><br />Anyway, last week I googled Guy Fawkes because he was the answer to a Jeopardy question. The question was about where the term “guy” comes from. I had no idea, so I immediately looked it up. While reading this post about the bonfire and the effigy, I had a major case of déjà vu. <br /><br />Glad to hear you enjoyed your break, you deserve it! You return papers and grades MUCH faster than all of my other teachers, combined! (In one of my classes, I’m still waiting on an exam grade for an exam I took before Halloween.) <br /><br />Be Well Ms. Smith,<br />Kourtney WashingtonKourtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16467788534673565490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399904.post-26029679858550259322009-11-10T17:53:43.012-08:002009-11-10T17:53:43.012-08:00I have my routines too, and enjoy how comfortable ...I have my routines too, and enjoy how comfortable they can be.
