YOU'RE SORRY? I called them CREEK! So we are on equal ground :)

Some quick lady...whose name has slipped me...ever so politely got the
story straight.

Actually she was really tripping that she was the principal of a magnet
school in a supposedly hoity-toity neighborhood. It took a year, but after
calling in the Human Relations Commission for the county she was
removed...surprising the heck out of her...and she is no longer working
directly with children. It takes awhile for the county to get rid of
someone...so by doing this they are basically hinting she should resign
from the county. I am LAUGHING!

The only problem with being a single mom and home-schooling a youngster
is....NO money! I've literally had to raid the penny jar to get gas at
times. But I have a roof over my head in a decent neighborhood and my Mom,
at 82, doesn't have to live alone...:)

Elizabeth,

sorry. I found the story about the march on a NA site while I was
researching Cherokee and just assumed since I got there through Cherokee
links.....must be Cherokee. LOL. That's what I get for staying on the
computer too late at night. Thanks. Hope you kicked the Pricipal's butt
before you took your kids home.

Lindsey
