Teacher Blogs and More!

I know school is winding down for my teacher friends.  With summer coming, many of them begin looking for resources to use for next year.  Since I've been blogging, I've found a variety of blogs and sites...some of them geared specifically for teachers.  Just wanted to pass them along today!

Enjoy your summer!!!!

Okay, I Have A Dilemma!!!

I realize this may not be important to most people however, I find myself in a situation where I need to make a choice!!!  The problem...I don't know which one to choose!!  Okay, let me back up a minute and get on track here.

Harley Man thinks it's time to get new carpet for our living room and dining room.  Wow!!! (fanning myself so I won't faint)  Yeah, I know...how is that a problem??  Well, I've been longing for hardwood floors for several years now; I've always had carpet in those rooms so hardwood floors appeal to me at this point.  Get the picture...it's carpet versus hardwood floors.  So I need some help!!!

If you have an opinion about hardwood floors versus carpet, I'd love to have your input.  See, I don't want to investigate cost, installers, etc. until I have a little more information!!!  (Not to mention some convincing words for Harley Man should I need them)  Here's your chance....let me know what you think and why!!!

I'll share more on this dilemma later...for now, please let me hear from you!!!
