Early December

     Beggs played in the state championship game last night. They lost to Oklahoma City Marshall 14-7, but it was a good game, and not every team can get that far. Wish I could have done a better job writing about them occasionally.

     Facebook/Twitter has been filled with "I'm so panicked it's finals time again!" posts, and it's been very strange not to have to worry about them.

     It's been a stressful week. But on the plus side I've heard from Dylan, Susan and Jessica, so that's something. Pearl Harbor Day was Thursday, and Monday will be the ninth anniversary of the fire. Also I tried to reread R.J. Palacio's Wonder for third/fourth time, and still hated it. It feels too much like real life, and books are supposed to be an escape. 

     Yesterday in the Facebook "On This Day" section was a funny status about the time in high school from Mrs. Jackson's speech class. After it ended one day, me, Courtney, Brenna, Mariah and Kyle were all standing in companionable silence in the elevator for five minutes before Mariah realizes that nobody's pushed the "on" button.
     Wonder what they're doing now. Julie's about the only person from the Okmulgee homeschool group I sometimes hear from, along with the Gastons.
