Chocolate Super Powers!

Okay it is my birthday and I used that as an excuse when I ate the second piece of fudge. My birthday person had a nice vegetable spread and fudge with a toffee topping.  Yummy!  Oh I was bad before lunch, I realized 4 pieces of fudge found its way into me.  (I enjoyed each yummy bite.)  I was starving before lunch.  At 9:30 when Charme' and I had breaks we were deciding on a good place to go for lunch.  Thursday is our day out for lunch.  I love Thursdays.  Even though we are next door to each other it seems like we never get to talk, so that is our catch up time.  Thank you Ann I enjoyed the card.  Thank you Laura, the pumpkin candles smell so good and the brownies are wonderful!!  They are so good and yummy, it is almost like eating chocolate syrup.  Oh so good.  I love chocolate!  So before lunch I ate 4 pieces of fudge and 2 BIG brownies.  I had my favorite sandwich avocado bacon chicken on wheat with red onion dressing.  Oh so delicious!  Then I had another brownie when my kids went to p.e.  T hat is when the super powers kicked in.  Laura has a student that is fairly non-verbal.  She was crying a lot today for no apparent reason and would not talk to Laura.  So, I took a crack at her. I made her look at me and I started with yes or no questions and got her to answer me then I found out she doesn't like to cry, she wasn't hurt, and she thought Laura could read her mind.  She went back to her room and started working and actually talked to Laura when asked questions.  Yeah!  Score one for super powers compliments of chocolate!  Woo Hoo!
Good wishes have come my way.  I heard from my mom on the way to school, I heard from Haley  while I was at the dr. with my husband.  Thanks for the unlimited texting, I am really getting into texting.  I got birthday greetings from Lindsay, a granddaughter, and her dad Derrick when I got home.  On my back porch there was a package from Kathy.  Pumpkin vanilla is a comforting scent.  I love it.  Kayla called as we were about to go out.  While we were out my sister, Janet, and Austin called.  We went to a silent auction, dinner, and a live auction.  We bid on one item it was about the 54th item and the crowd had really thinned out quite a bit.  We were successful!  We got a 30 yard dumpster!  Yahoo!  We were going to rent one next week to hold the old roof as we roof the house.  We got it for $250.00, which saved us about $100.00.  How about that!  We saw Karri and her husband and they were really lucky and won several silent bids and one in the live auction which I understand was actually a wave at someone!  Oopsie!  Then Cassie called since we have been home.  I am very blessed.  Mom the necklace is as gorgeous as the shirt and jacket.  I love them.  I had so many happy birthdays from the people at school.  I work with very caring people.  Thank you everyone, I feel loved and blessed by all the people who care.  It has been a great day!
