  2. I like this, Carrie. Rob calls his simple, basically he wrote the beginning of the unwritten "Teacher's Creed". I was thinking of the old, once popular song, "The old lamplighter (he makes the night a little brighter, . . .)." Also of our evening walking tour given by a lamplighter in Rothenburg on der Tauber, Germany.
    Today I've become very old, almost elderly, My mother died at my new age.
    Thank you again, Carrie. I'll go back to sleep on it, perhaps my Muse will give me some hints and nudges in my dreams.

    2. Good thing you don't drink it black Qbit! I always have to have cream in mine....probably accounts for 15 pounds of extra baggage for me. LOL

    3. *meant "sunshine" although sometimes there is moonshine in the coffee too!

      Delete
    4. Hmmm, I drink my coffee black, still have 15 lbs extra baggage, and it takes at least two cups to really see anything sunshine (possibly because I don't put any moonshine in). Causation or correlation? Hmmm...
