If you're not knitting, the terrorists win

(My mostly on-topic ramblings about knitting. And life in general. My life in specific.)

I'm a middle aged mother of 2 grown children and wife to a man who doesn't seem to mind my almost heroin-like yarn addiction. I spend my time writing, knitting, and generally stressing out.

I Love Yu-Gi-Oh! Cards

Even if they are sometimes slightly inappropriate. Like this one, from the new set. It's kind of offensive.

But I laughed anyway. Don't judge me.

Truth be told, I rode a short bus for grade school. I lived so far out in the country, there were only 6 kids at most at our bus stop (and usually only 2 or 3) so the school did not dedicate one of the larger buses to our route.

So I rode bus #3 all through grade school. In jr. high, they sent bus #2 to our route, before it made the stop on the south side of town. I walked to the top of the hill and waited in the gravel lot of the closed-down grain mill. (It wasn't an derelict area, though, by any means. There were houses all around. Now, btw, that mill is gone and there is a little park-like area with a flower garden.)

There were kids that were younger than me, who went to the elementary school, but they didn't have to ride bus #2 after the year I went to jr high. I'm not sure what happened. Maybe a parent complained because we were riding the short bus? Maybe some kids complained?(But, because I actually did ride a short bus, I don't remember there being anything out of the ordinary about that.) Or, more likely, maybe the city got some sort of funding for special ed classes and they had to dedicate that bus solely for special ed in order to qualify?

That's probably it. We actually got another full-sized bus that year, come to think of it. (For a total of 4) Yeah. I grew up in a very small town.
