Two school jokes it must be September
'I'm not going to school today,'
Alexander said to his mother. 'The teachers bully me and the boys in my
class don't like me.' 'Why ?'
'First, you're 35 years old. Second,
you're the principal.'
Mother: "Why are you home from school so early?" Son: "I was the only
one who could answer a question." Mother: "Oh, really? What was the
question? Son: "Who threw the eraser at the principal?"
I hope you all had a wonderful summer. Now it's time to get back to
school for a day.
Gail and I
have a fun day planned.
Hopefully, when you leave you will have learned something new, got
inspired to lose weight or just had a good time with your fellow TOPS
members. Bring your own lunch in your favorite lunch box.
REMEMBER.........IT'S FREE
"Back to School" for the
day. Great workshop to bring a friend
to.....whether they belong to TOPS or not.
Registration begins at 8:30. Bells rings at 9:15. Do not
be late or you will have to deal with Wavering Wanda and Sensible
Samantha. This will be the
4TH workshop Gail and I have done. Our goal is to increase the
attendance numbers each time. So far we have done that.
Our last one was 100 people. A
few members coming from your chapter???? Think about car pooling...the
driver can pretend they are driving the school bus.
WE CAN'T SPELL S CCESS
WITHOUT U.
HOPE TO SEE YOU ON SEPT. 15TH
