Act II

Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance.

Will Durant (1885 - 1981)

Quote is fitting....I finished my last final for this semester about an hour ago. It's so relieving! It's been a tough semester. I'm getting very close to being done and I'm excited! I have this fall (august - october), take off the winter term because I'm done with course work and student teaching in Janurary! I am going to do very well this semester. One B is reported and two A's are on the way. I am going to brag on myself for a minute...I just calculated my GPA and I'm at a 3.6! I think that will look good on my resume! In the past three years I've only made 6 B's and one C! Moving on....

I am so tired today! I have worked very long hours outside with my girls and I finally have a day off! Tomorrow I am going to try to sleep in but I bet I wake up at 7 because it's what my body is used to. Today was tough...it's hard keeping the balance between teacher and friend in my situation. There are some teacher things I cannot do and some friend things I have to do to keep them working for me. I struggled today and got my first hs girl attitude and backtalking. We talked about it and I think next week will be better. I feel better about my job with them now and tried to make it fun today and it was!

I am off work next week and like Steve, I have a to-do list: here goes:

Make a to-do list (Thanks Larry)
Clean our bedroom
Clean guest room
Gather all garage sale stuff in the garage (Garage Sale on Aug. 16th at my sister's house)
Watch all DVR events that have been on there for over a month and delete them
Wash my car
Clean out my car
Wash Adam's truck
Clean out Adam's truck
Give Abbey a bath

Sit on my couch and drink the bottle of wine I bought a month ago
Meditate
Read a book...FOR FUN (Tuesday's with Morrie)
Visit my grandparents (Mother's side-of course)
Get my hair cut
Go to bed before the sun
.....that's about it.....


Oh no....it's 8:51pm, I am going to go to bed early tonight!!

Good night and God bless! xoxo

Wish I could be there to help with the bottle of wine. I got to have my first glass at dinner the other night. It was the best glass of wine ever!!
