Here you go, my Sweet Violets! Another new home for our daily musings....

"Thus nature has no love for solitude, and always leans, as it were, on some support; and the sweetest support is found in the most intimate friendship."

- Cicero

One of my grad students turned in a paper with a 95% plagarism report!!!WTF, do you know how much extra work that is for me. 57% from one source and 33% from another. Jeez...stupid people.

FAIL!!

People really are dumb these days to think they can get away with plagarism. At one point it may have worked, but with the internet.. forget it.

Michelle, tooo funny!!!!!!!!!!!

A quick (with no humidity) shower on Saturday will NOT spoil Haydee's day will make it lucky, and maybe a rainbow will appear!!!!!!!!!

Have a great day everyone!!

How can you tell when somebody did plagarism? I mean I am sure sometimes it is obvious, but other times I wonder?

No, my hernia doesn't hurt, I keep on heavy duty girdle like pants to keep it from showing too much.

Sorry for the three different posts.

All papers must go through a Turnitin.com site...which is an international site used by universities. You will get a 10-25% plag. score if students are using the same reference materials. THEN...as if that wasnt bad enough...she turned in an old score on her paper. duh!

Oh my gosh!! Do some people think? At all????

Good afternoon, Violets..

Home from the luncheon. I had a bowl of butternut squash soup and a spinach salad. I made chocolate mousse for dessert and had 2 teaspoons of it. The rest is sitting in the fridge and son Joe will take care of it for me. The plumber can't come today and we leave between noon and 1 tomorrow, but they have Joe's number and he will come over when the plumber comes. Hopefully it won't be anything major, but I can hear the ka-ching, ka-ching as I type.

I'm headed out to get a couple of tee shirts for the Bobster. He has almost everything packed. I picked up his suit this morning. Sure hope we have enough clothes and the right kind for the weather. You know I'm used to highs of 50 and 60!!!!

Janie... $50 to alter the dress???????? My whole dress was only $60!!!! YIKES!!

Will check back later... 2 more days, ladies!!!

Mmmmm, choc mousse.

M @ the high school waiting for ds's spring concert.

Have to bake Lemon Praline Cookies tonight for FIL's birthday on Fri.

Enjoy your eves.

The chocolate mousse is GONE! No, I didn't inhale it... I gave it to Joe when he came over to put air in the car's tire.

I got 5 plants planted in the front yard and got my laundry finished. Off to rehearsal and then home to clean my bathroom and finish last minute details. We leave tomorrow between noon and 1 so time in the morning to get some things done too. Crossing my fingers the plumber gets here before we have to leave.

Have a safe trip Judy, see you in Texas!!!

WOOHOO...this is getting CLOSERANDCLOSER!!! I am so excited!! xoxo

Ok.. disaster time. Bob can't find his GOOD tie. Not like he doesn't have sixteen hundred ties... he just has to have this particular one. He's now going through the house top to bottom to find it. Joy..

Home from rehearsal.. sink is still clogged, but the house is in decent shape and we are 95% packed. Should be on our way on time........ hopefully!

...maybe the tie is in the drain?

Grady! Ethan!

LOL.. now there's a thought!
