Sitting Here!

I have been sitting in this chair since one this afternoon.

Okay, well I did get up and run a kid there and another one there and then back to get them again.

But!! Other than that I have been here ALL DAY!!


With my nose buried in a book, my fingers typing away, and my head processing information.

School is hard...and there is lots to accomplish and time keeps speeding up.

I swear what was 24 hours a year ago is more like 22 now.

I don't know how that happened but it has happened.  Do you know how it happened?

So I'm still sitting here in this chair. Except for now I'm stepping away from the book. The book that talks about Onomatopoeias, Similes, Metaphors, Alliteration, and Personification, also the structures of an atom and did you know....

Never mind I don't even think I want to know..

Tomorrow is the last night of one more class and my graduation date is now officially under a year. WOO HOO BABY!

All I have to do is survive less than 10 classes a few nasty tests and student teaching. Peace of cake, right?

Speaking of tests do you know how expensive those buggers are? It is kind of amazing how much one has to pay in order to get a job teaching.

HOWEVER!

I will take a break from my complaining to point out that I have an AMAZING Husband.

Why?

Well after paying TODAY for one of those EXPENSIVE tests and then proceeding to have a minor melt down my Husband said the most awesome thing... Well at least it was awesome in the fact that it diffused my panic attack and put life into perspective. Sometimes I really like that guy I married. He is good for me.

But don't tell him I told you.

Okay, I have more studying to do but I wanted to say HI!

HI!!

At my Age

I saw this quote the other day and had to smile. It has been interesting finishing school at my age. I have had this feeling more than once that I am a little old, and finishing school is something I should have done a long time ago. Usually I remind myself that we all have our own paths to take in life. My path had me marry at 19 and become the mother of four beautiful rug rats by 27. Marriage and children defined me more than anything. I became more aware of my talents and abilities. I really didn't know who I was before I became a wife and mother. Waiting until now to finish my degree gave me time to figure out who I am. Well, at least to have a better idea of who I am. I love being in a classroom, I love learning, and I love helping others learn. My inner nerd does little happy dances every time I learn something new. Each person on this planet has their own God given talents. We have a responsibility to find our talents and to make the world a better place. How old you are wh...

Pinewood Derby or Bust!

If there is one thing that Brent and I both agree on.  One thing that we both believe is essential to the proper development, growth, and raising of a son. That no boyhood would be complete with out.  It would be participation in the Pinewood Derby.   Yes, on this one thing Brent and I are in total agreement.  A boyhood is not a true boyhood until a boy has built a pinewood derby car and then competed in a pinewood derby.  It is that important!  I'm sorry if you have never had the opportunity to live in a house filled with the air of pinewood derby. If you have never had the opportunity of watching a father stand to the side as his son uses HIS power tools. The opportunity to take a chunk of wood and see that inside the wood is the makings of a CAR.   You wonder why men are so obsessed with cars, with how there made, and how fast they go.  Well if you have ever brought home a pinewood derby box kit to a home with boys and men all your questions would be answered. Once the car is b...

The Kids Today

S. is now 11 years old and is counting down the days until she turns 12. She is in the fifth grade and says math is her favorite subject. She stays pretty busy with swimming and soccer. This past year in addition to a regular AYSO team she has been competing on an All Star Team. She has really enjoyed it and is really looking forward to a tournament that will take place in Hawaii this July. She still loves swimming and is still competing when she can. A. is 9 years old and is the professor of the house.  He is our silent man whose brain is in constant motion.  He reads and reads and reads and soon will read me out of house and home.  He enjoys video and computer games, and he loves playing sports.  In January he made the city swim team and continues to play soccer, basketball, and anything that I let him.  Al will soon be eight.  As in next week soon.  The best part of school she says is 3:25 when pressed for a better answer than that she say...
