Thursday Thirteen #27

The kids have been out of school for about 17 days now. But I meant to share then this idea my daughter's teacher had. The last week of school my daughter's 3rd grade class came up with a list of things they learned during the year.

The students came up with 105 things they learned. The teacher said now you can see the kids actually learned something. Because you ask them "what did you learn in school" and they say "nothing."

Here is 13 things from the list:

1. Cursive Writing
2. Charles Lindbergh
3. Haiku
4. Desert Animals
5. Rocks and Minerals
6. Good Sportsmanship
7. Rain Forests
8. Fractions
9. Country Flags
10. Measurement
11. 50 State Song
12. The Great Depression
13. Chicken Dance

Back Exercise Program

If you have a history of back pain, then you may want to try out some Back Exercises.


I found out about a great program to help with Back Pain. If you have tried medication, heat wraps and other methods for back pain, then you may have discovered that it only temporarily eases it. A new program from Back2Yourself provides simple home-based methods to eliminate back pain.

This is done by improving your body mechanics. With this program you will get back exercises, progress tracking tools, and a team of professionals to help you. And within weeks you will be on your way to a healthier back.

WW #63 "4th Of July Camping"

If anyone noticed my lack of posting for about 6 days, it was because I was on my annual 4th of July camping trip. It's the one camping trip a year where my sister and her boyfriend come with us too. We went from July 2 through the 6th.

The weather could have been better. Lots of rain, one day we even had hail! But we got some sun in spots and Sunday and Monday turned out to be pretty nice. Here's some pictures from our trip to Crawford Notch Campground in NH.
