Time to start working out again!

Not only do I need to get in shape, my dog's hip has started making a popping sound again. So I need to walk her, as well as start jogging again myself. So Friday I'm headed to a local running store to get some new shoes. I have really high arches, so I need good shoes (read: expensive). I've started walking Maggie around the block, and she already sounds better.

School has been going well. I have had some kids out with a bad cold that is going around. So I've gotten some paper work done that I needed to work on. One of my students is in the hospital with pnemonia, so keep her in your prayers.

I'll post more about my getting in shape later. I want to walk after school, but I may be going by the hospital to see my student. So I might not have time. Maybe just to go around the block with Maggie.

Oh, the joys of teaching special ed!

I was sitting here enjoying my break while the kids were at recess, when a teacher came knocking at my outside door. She said she was by herself out there, and one of the special needs kids just went to the bathroom outside! OMYGOSH! I didn't think it was one of my students. They would never....!!!! But, NOPE! One did! At least he went over to the grass! LOL! It is never dull here!

Like I told my mom, at least I look good today! I dressed up in a cute outfit. So at least I have that! :-)

Sunday nap controversy

So, the controversy about Sunday afternoon naps is: they feel sooooooo good, but then Sunday night you can't get to sleep. And then Monday you are cranky. It doesn't help that I'm cranky already. I'm going to need a lot of chocolate in the next two weeks, that if for sure! I sure hope I can fall asleep at a decent hour tonight, because I had a really long nap this afternoon.

Church was fun! I love teaching 4s and 5s. They are so cute. Preschoolers just love their teachers. :)

Well, I'd better get the girls to bed. See you all tomorrow!

Busy day!

We've been busy here cleaning, just as I had planned. That doesn't always happen. There are 101 other things I'd rather do. But you have to do, what you have to do!

The girls are playing with a couple of neighbor girls, and we're enjoying the silence. I should go check on them. :-) We are going to have movie night and watch Dreamer with Kurt Russell and Dakota Fanning.

I'm teaching Sunday school tomorrow. It is my last time until March. whew! :-)

I hope you all have had a great weekend, so far!

I'm a blogger at last!

My friends here at work are blogging, so I thought I'd join the group and blog!

TGIF! This week had taken forever to get over with! Of course it is our first full week of the year so far. The kids finally settled back into the routine this week, so they aren't quite to crazy. Whew!

My husband and I are going on a date tonight! :-) We're going to go see The Good Shepard, and then maybe we'll grab dessert somewhere. We're never hungry for dessert when we go out to eat. So this will be a nice treat. Better than going and eating a big dinner before the movie and being uncomfortable afterwards. That is never fun.

This weekend is cleaning weekend at our house. I have to clean until I drop. I've been frightfully busy with work and getting progress reports out and such. So I need to concentrate on my house. Thanks to my husband though. He really had been helping me out a lot with the house and girls. He's so great! :-)
