T-Town Is Proud!

The elections are over and Tecumseh is proud! Oklahoma made history by electing its first woman governor. She is Mary Fallin (R), from Tecumseh. Our current governor is Brad Henry (D), from Shawnee. These governors have known each other since they were children because their parents were involved in politics and civic affairs. Also, James Lankford (R) is our new House Rep. Lankford has been director of Falls Creek Baptist Assembly. It is Oklahoma's state camp, but is similar in size and scope to Glorieta. They are mere humans, but it's nice to know that some conservatives are doing their best for our state and nation for awhile. I will put my faith and trust in God, not government.

Mom is feeling much better, and thinks the swelling in her foot has gone down. Perhaps the swelling made her blood pressure go sky high??

I gave tests this morning. My "newbys" did very well. They all made 98% on an 8 page exam. They did so well, I taught them how to play the spelling game that we all know. They were so eager that I had to take off points if they blurted out the answer without spelling the phrase. Why is self-c0ntrol such a difficult skill to learn?
