It totally baffles me!<br />"This popular teacher told students and friends she was going to die.

As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I have had together. It doesn’t matter if you knew me a little or a lot, if we’ve actually met in person or not, anything you remember!<br />2. Do the same on your blog and see what happens.Rhendahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10134562435860753591noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447305688690263991.post-2774370919530203602008-05-12T13:20:00.000-07:002008-12-09T19:25:03.524-08:00Best Mother's Day present ever!<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jGLQaiCFH4g/SCip8YCTK9I/AAAAAAAAAB4/QaDVZsRC3Z4/s1600-h/Jordan+football+2007.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5199592624508578770" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_jGLQaiCFH4g/SCip8YCTK9I/AAAAAAAAAB4/QaDVZsRC3Z4/s200/Jordan+football+2007.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>My dear, sweet, 13 year old made me a Mother's Day card with some coupons written inside.

I needed to shake things up a bit and I have always been crazy about change. I used the website: <a href="http://www.findyourspot.com/">http://www.findyourspot.com/</a> to help me figure out where to live. So, to answer the common question of: "Why Roanoke?" I've decided to list what I love about Roanoke:</div><div></div><br /><div>1) It's green! Check out the "TREES" picture on my home page. <---</div><br /><div>2) My commute takes about 5 minutes, depending on how many of the 3 traffice signals I have to stop at.</div><br /><div></div><div>3)Mill Mountain Star...especially at night.</div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPJYWue1INlepbFGDPhW0eCuAbEL1fBEM1vxEyaJ2RX50ZjBPyOLpoPimoDhgaJzZ06CGkMjsGWVadnWX1NWx6YhzS4I6V_CPz2-s6ZFPJ7dkz7o0_qQibfPHHoixAH_apSdLj5_77Fk03/s1600-h/320px-Roanoke_star%5B1%5D.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5197344575615815922" style="WIDTH: 113px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 78px" height="46" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPJYWue1INlepbFGDPhW0eCuAbEL1fBEM1vxEyaJ2RX50ZjBPyOLpoPimoDhgaJzZ06CGkMjsGWVadnWX1NWx6YhzS4I6V_CPz2-s6ZFPJ7dkz7o0_qQibfPHHoixAH_apSdLj5_77Fk03/s200/320px-Roanoke_star%5B1%5D.jpg" width="112" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div></div><div>4) Lots of cute critters (which sadly also equals lots of roadkill).
