Goodbye January, Hello February

When I was little I would always say goodbye to the past month and welcome the new month in. I have no idea where is came from or why I did it.....but February brings many exciting things

~Seeing my husband (Hopefully)
~DI Regional Tournament
~Starting the process of really tackling our debt
~One month closer to My birthday and Spring Break
~One month closer to the end of the school year
~The Super Bowl (Go Colts)
~Daytona 500 (Go Tony!!)
~and many more things will make this month a great one!!!

Things I've had enough of....

...OK I normally try to stay positive in these blogs but it's been a bad day

So the things I'm sick and tired of are.....


.....Not seeing my husband everyday
.....Students that do not care (and I have plenty of them here in Texas)
.....Traffic...I hate living in the city
.....People who do not understand how hard my husband is working
.....People who don't talk to me for no reason
.....Bad Friends
.....Debt
.....Bills
.....Living so far away from my family
.....Drama (my job is full of it)
.....Texas School Systems
.....IEPs
.....ARDs
.....BIPs
.....People who think it is easy being a teacher
.....My crazy momma from DI
.....Interpreters in my class that think they know everything
.....Students that think they know everything
.....Attitudes
.....Mondays
.....Not having washer and dryer hook-ups in my apartment when I own a washer and dryer
.....Lesson Planning
.....Grocery Shopping (School and Home)



OK I think that is all for now....I feel a lot better...thanks for listening.


I know I have a blessed life, some times I just need to vent.

10 Years Ago...

The Year was 2000......

....I was a freshman in high school....now I teach freshman
....I was ready for the real world to start....now I want to go back to high school/college
....I was worried about finding "The One"....now I am happy as can be married to the love of my life.
....I was living in Botetourt County, Virginia....Now I'm in Corpus Christi, Texas and can't wait to get back to VA.
....I had a great group of friends....now I'm jealous of those who go out all the time with their friends
....I was thinking about when I would start a family.....now I'm still thinking about when I will start a family (not anytime soon)
....I was happy.....and now I'm still very happy.


A lot has changed along the way but I wouldn't change a thing. I'm blessed for all the people in my life and miss all of you.
