Thankful

So busy, so little time, gone from sun up to sun down, working, cleaning, driving, cheering....and I am thankful for it all! If my world suddenly went from "hustle & bustle" to "turtle pace"....I think I would go nuts! Yes, most days I leave at 6am and do not get home until 8:23pm..haha... but when I crawl into my comfy bed and my body melts into my conformed mattress & soft sheets, I say my prayers and give thanks that I am so blessed! I have two beautiful children that I love with all my heart, I have a wonderful job with inspiring students, and fabulous co-workers, I have amazing friends and family that keep me laughing, let me cry, and know exactly what to say when I need it. So, when I feel like pulling my hair out, or feel a tantrum coming on, I take a deep breath and remember I wouldn't have it any other way!

Slow Down Summer!!

I can't believe how fast my summer is going! Lots of swimming, splastown, camping, baseball, basketball, and volleyball have kept us busy! Now it's onto cleaning and getting ready for back to school shopping!!! I'm downloading pics as I type so more summer posts to come!

Last Day of School!!!

Woohoo!!! Today is the last day of school! I will really miss all of my special 5th grade kids! They have been so awesome!!! I will also miss the wonderful teachers and staff that are leaving our school. They are terrific teachers, and great friends! I pray for them all blessed wishes!
Time to Party :>

Goosebumps and Tears!

Social Networking...UUUGGHHHH

Ok Ok, I know you are asking why so distraught over social networking?? I actually was on facebook for a brief period and really enjoyed it and yes..I even farmed! My whole family is on there from grandparent down to my daughter. It was really fun talking to them and sharing pictures and laughs. Then, when you are faced with a life changing experience, having all of your and your families business out there where people you used to trust and believe in could follow...well I bolted off for the sake of our privacy. At times I miss it. Especially the comments and giggles from friends and family. Yes, I know you can block certain people, but believe me there are friends of friends who in some way will have access to your site. So creating all of these new blogs, wiki's and orkuts have tested my nerves. But who knows, maybe I'll stay on this time...after all --those former relatives are realizing they have missed-- 
"what all I'm made of"!

So click on over to my newest "sites" I have had to create for my Web class...
