So I'm just broadening my natural skills on my little steno machine. I go to the link above that is
taken from: The Reading Teachers Book of Lists, Third Edition; by Edward Bernard Fry, Ph.D, Jacqueline E. Kress, Ed.D & Dona Lee Founto\ukidis, Ed.D.

And I notice on this list that they misspell "clothes."   Okay. Fine. But come on!!!!
A few words down is "Teacher".   It's spelled "Theacher"!!   That is crazy.   I had to share
that with you.   :)

Watch what your kids learn from teachers' lists.

THAT LITTLE CHAIR

I'm telling ya, I'm pretty disappointed. But what do ya do? My granny and I go to the Salvation Army looking around on Saturday. Actually, we go almost every Saturday. It's her favorite thing to do on her "Day". Right there when you first walk in, there's this little chair sitting there. A little one, all taped up with what looks like packing tape on the seat and other places. But overall, it's a pretty sturdy little thing and so, so cute. So original. It's marked $9.99. As if they're fooling me with that. It's 10 bucks. Yup. Can't fool me. "How much will you take for that chair?" "$2.00." "Really! I'll take it." "Okay." I leave it there and continue shopping. BIG MISTAKE!! Who knew! I'm shopping. I'm on the phone telling my brother about this chair and all the wonderful things I'm going to do with it. I even named...

THINKING by Walter Wintle

https://www.yowbaby.com/ IF YOU THINK YOU ARE BEATEN, YOU ARE; IF YOU THINK YOU DARE NOT, YOU DON'T. IF YOU'D LIKE TO WIN, BUT THINK YOU CAN'T, IT'S ALMOST A CINCH YOU WON'T. IF YOU THINK YOU'LL LOSE, YOU'RE LOST; FOR OUT OF THE WORLD WE FIND SUCCESS BEGINS WITH A FELLOW'S WILL; IT'S ALL IN THE STATE OF MIND. IF YOU THINK YOU'RE OUTCLASSED, YOU ARE; YOU'VE GOT TO THINK HIGH TO RISE. YOU'VE GOT TO BE SURE OF YOURSELF BEFORE YOU CAN EVER WIN THE PRIZE. LIFE'S BATTLES DON'T ALWAYS GO TO THE STRONGER OR FASTER MAN; BUT SOON OR LATE THE MAN WHO WINS, IS THE MAN WHO THINKS HE CAN!

"I DON'T KNOW"

That's the words that were ringing tonight at what I was expecting to be a reprieve from all the madness I keep experiencing. You see, I'm a square dancer. I'm a court reporter. I'm a caretaker. I'm a musician. I'm a really big dreamer. Lately, I feel like a loser. So no matter how well-meaning everyone was, going to our club dinner and having everyone ask, "Where do you work at now?", well, it just sucked. Tomorrow is my 48th birthday and I'm still here with my grandmother helping her out. Or is she helping me out. I tell you, when I first arrived here from El Paso, I was not me. It was such a horrible time in my life. My whole world had crumbled and here I was in a situation I'd never dream of, of having to take care of my 91-year-old grandmother who, as it turned out, was not the grandmother I had always thought she was. I guess that can go both ways. Maybe I ended up changing to her and she could say the same thing...
