Four months???

If a picture is worth a thousand words, this one sums up my life the last few months:

Notice the messy bulletin board, pictures, and notes.

But most of all, notice that the calendar says: JULY!!!!

I haven't even switched it for 4 months. That is just how ridiculous everything has been getting lately!






I do love getting my masters and feeling like I am moving forward and making myself more equipped to do what I want to do: impact students in the public schools.  I just hope I haven't lost too much in the process of being busy.

This weekend, Justin and I hit up the junior high dance at school, once again, in our Incredibles costumes. Goodness knows that we don't really dance,  but go to connect with the students and lend a watchful eye on those wayward dancers. :) Plus, I figure that we should get as much wear out of these costumes before they don't fit anymore!

Christmas Lights

Browsing through the junk mail, I was taken aback when I saw this:

So these days, people will even put up your Christmas lights for you. Of course you have to pay them though. (And in times like these, who has money to pay for that? Heck, who can afford a higher electric bill for the lights themselves?)

Anyway, I just think that it is crazy, and I thought someone else might find it laughable too.

Super Sweet Sidewalk

Isn't my husband great????



Long time no blog.

I finally sit down. Finally. The weeks are rushing by a hummingbird trying to get to the sweet syrup in the feeder. I think that's what I feel like too. Except sometimes I wonder if I am going to get to the sweet stuff.

My 16 credits worth of classes keep plugging away. Two at night, two online. They sure keep my busy. I told Justin that he had to plan a date for us this weekend so that I would get away and relax. Hopefully my mind will be able to shut down for a little bit! We are planning on going to Red Lobster and then a movie afterwards.

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps is our chosen one for tonight. It was either that or Social Network, but since I like Facebook, I guess I don't want to see a movie that defames it. I mean, I remember when Facebook first started, and Cedarville, my college, hadn't been added yet. Then it was, and 90% of the college had started and account in a day. And it's still how I keep in touch with my college friends. While you do need to be careful about the security issue, overall I am pleased with most of it. The stuff I don't like, I can just ignore. Anyways, the movie isn't on my list to see until it comes out at Redbox.

Besides that, I'm hoping to start my research paper on best practices for schools with English learner's. It's not due for over a month, but with everything else, I'm just trying to make sure I get things done.

Over and out...
