Wednesday


Okay the four day week, a blessing and a curse. So yesterday was Tuesday the first school day this week. And boy was it a dozey of a day. I had swearing, I had office visits, I had a ARC (that it the special ed. meeting for a student about thier IEP, I had teacher team meeting (which was heated and intense though not directly pointed at me), I had teachers stressing about mid terms which is today, I had students who were still very riled up from teh week end, and I had students writing poetry about sucide and murder. SO all in all a .... well it was day. It definatly doesn't go on the top of the list, however I am figure I lived though it, my students all lived through it, I count it in the win catigory. Besides the day was made better when I came home with only 20 mins to eat and get to class and my husband had dinner on the table. He drove me to class to save me the find a parking place stress, he swept and moped the kitchen floor, and cleaned the toliets since my parents are coming over tonight, he even made the bed. He made the day seem better and gave me the strenght to get up today and do it all over again. Yea for the wonderful Hubby.

I think it would shock me to see a child misbehave or swear who I had never seen act out before. Were you in some way expecting this behavior or did it come as a complete surprise?

Annevsary's and baby firsts

Okay, let see, our 4th annavsary was this week. We have been married four years. It feels a little longer. I guess we have just packed alot into it and that makes it seem longer. I am really very happy/glad, that I married brad. He has been supportive when I have been flipping out. He takes care of me, and needs me, he is calmed by me when he is flipping out, he has created the cutest little bear with me, we have shared laughs, football games, Musicals, movies, TV shows, books, basketball games, tears, hardship, lack of funs... in short, the better and the worse, the richer and the poorer, the sickness and the health, alaughter and the sorrow, I married a very specail man and I am truly blessed because of it. I can't thank God enough that He saved bard for me. As for First, this week the baby slept all night for the first time. We fed her at 9:00 pm, put her down and she doesn't get up til around 7:30. (of course if we get up early and start moving around she wakes up too) but ...

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Sanity

Okay so this week has been a little wild. Between getting ready for testing at school. Trying to keep students who are ready for summer focused. PMSing, Brad having his huge action research proposal due yesterday and many other little things, I have felt just the slightest bit overwhelmed. I will say that Sanjya finally got voted off American Idol. He couldn't sing, coldn't dance and there and there was really no reason he made it this far above and beyond that people wanted to see what crazy thing he would do each week. Well finally they got it through their heads that he coudln't sing and sent him packing, me and Simon Cowl were thrilled. Please continue to pray for brad, his feet and shins are still bothering him. wE think it is shin splints but we are not sure. He is giving them the 2-4 week rest period that shin splints need and if they don't get better he will go to the dr. as I mentioned above, testing starts next week, here in teh state of Kentucky, and th...
