Tuesday. Check.

Quiet day. Giving tests in Health Class will do that. I was lazy and didn't make them correct the multiple choice part. What was I thinking? Now I have to do it. Maybe I will make my students do it tomorow after they make Christmas cards. Ha...suckers.

After work, it was a whole lot of getting ready to leave. Packing and cleaning were the highlights. I also watched The Office with Janette and washed some laundry. It is nice to have friends with washers. :)

Tomorrow should be fun. Half day at school and it is just our play day before break. Love it!

Holy Cats. What a day!

Hi friends.

School great. Even got to hold Kristi's baby, Ky, during lunch.

Then the last ten minutes killed the good day up to that point. Girl got angry at me for enforcing the rules. Oh, I could tell you the story but my blood pressure would rise and I'd never get to sleep.

Bought some fabric for some magic this holiday season. It's going to Rock!

Then had yogurt with Jane. Always helps the soul.

Then off to caroling with the peeps from my ward. It was so very fun. They set up a hayride for us and we were able to have donuts and hot coco at the bishop's house. Very fun. Glad I went. It made the crazy part of the day melt.

Only one more day of regular class. Yipee!

S is for Sunday and Speeding Ticket

Hi. It's Sunday. I am already tired. Sorry to anybody go expects to see me over the holidays. You may miss out due to the fact that I am sleeping. Apologies.

Had a great day up until about an hour ago when I was pulled over. Sure I was speeding and totally own it, but seriously...it sucks. Oh well, consequences are real. It's nobody else's fault but my own. If only my students would understand how they are in control of having consequences in their lives.

The highlight was spending time with the rug rats and eating Morgan's amazing pulled pork sandwiches. Thanks Sis.

Too bad I didn't snap a pic of the bright blue and red lights. So festive!

And the frosted look on the trees today was very pretty. Second highlight!

Saturdays are Spectacular

Great day of sleeping in, running in the sun and not being cold, going to dinner with a nice friend, and playing rockband with a bunch of people.

It is fun to get to know new people and to have time with the ones I already know. What a wonderful day!

Weekends Rock!

I am pretty excited that it is the weekend now. This is one of the best weekends of the year because when I go back to work, there really are only two days of actual class before a longer weekend. Fabulous. This weekend will be relaxing because of it. I do have a huge amount of grading to do. That is not nice, but I do need to get caught up before leaving Utah!

Today was nice. Went to Red Robin after school. Then I got cookies and cakebites to celebrate Aiden's birthday. Aiden is a friend from church who I met five years ago when he was just four years old. Crazy that he turned nine today. That makes me feel slightly old. I get over that feeling by playing Plants Vs Zombies. I like the new festive look.

Now to dreamland. It's nice to have nothing important to get up for. Sleeping in is one of my favs!
