Carrie Underwood Rocks!!!

It is late and I am tired, but it was all worth it. My friend, Aimee, and I went to see Carrie Underwood in Salt Lake City tonight. It was an awesome concert.

Ms. Underwood puts on a great show. She first appeared from a lift in the stage and the show was energy filled from start to finish. I have a few videos but I don't have the time to post them right now. It was a complete blast and I am still on a little of a concert high, but I must go to bed or I will be grumpy with my students. Poor, poor children having to deal with me and my bad attitude all the time.

I am a slacker writer but half way through my novel. It doesn't seem that good but at least I am writing.

A pretty non-exciting day.

Basketball practice was awesome. I think my girls finally got our play. I am hoping they will be able to use it in the game on Friday.

Started a weight lifting unit in Phy Ed. Good times.

Exercised and went grocery shopping after leaving work. Thrilling day.

Only two days until Carrie Underwood! YIPEE!

Winterizing.

I decided to put plastic over my windows in order to save some heat. It seems to be doing the trick so far, but I guess I will notice more when it is more cold. I refuse to credit it as winter yet, even if it is cold in the morning. It has been pretty warm this weekend and sunny. I like that weather. By the way, thanks to Megan for the hair dryer to put up my plastic. You are a gem.

Megan stayed with me this weekend and we had fun shopping(as we always do!) and eating and going to a movie. We saw Quantum of Solace. It was okay. Not the best Bond movie if you ask me. I spent a lot of the movie feeling dizzy because of the cinematography. It was fun but I don't think I would buy the movie. See it if you want!

I have taken a two day break from the novel. That is not good. I did write a bit tonight. I have to get on it again this week. I now have 24,201 words. Not bad but I really wanted to be ahead. Now I am playing catch up! SIGH! OH WELL.

Well, I must be going to bed. Not excited to go to work tomorrow, but who is?

So People Don't Worry!

Here is the history of my eye infection. It has been a week and it is almost perfect now. I just didn't want you all to worry about me going blind and having my eye then fall out. That would be embarrassing.

OPAC

OPAC stands for Operation Pass All Classes.  Today we started something new at our school and I am very excited for it, so you get to read about it.  Basically, during our Leadership class on Thursdays we now have each student assigned to a class that they are struggling with.  This means they go to that teacher and work on bringing their grades up instead of going to their Leadership class.  I had about six Health kids who I requested to come meet with me who were failing Health class.  Within about a half an hour, all six of these students had pulled their grades to Bs or better.  I thought that was pretty awesome.  

I hope we will be able to see a rise in our students passing all their class which in the end will mean there will be more students who actually graduate.  YIPEE!!!!
