Tuesday

Donovan and I do not have many more days of just us. I will be returning back to school. I love my job, it is the drama and politics involved with work. I am not sure why people think I really care about my room right now. I am not on contract till August 15, and that is when I will discuss my room. I mean I really do not have much of a say in anything. I do know that if the Admin is not worried about my room, then I am not going to worry about it. I mean if there is anything to worry about Admin will figure it out. I am sure they have some type of backup plan.

I actually worked on my chipboard letters for my room. I love the ABEL ones. They turned out great. I also got the best saying for my class. If I am ABEL to do it, then you are ABEL to do it too. Love it. Now my READING letters I am unsure if I will keep the scrap paper on it. They are skulls that would go with a pirate them. I might end up changing them.

I am so dreading Quantum Learning tomorrow. I just to get home to be with Donovan. We are suppose to go to the beach on Thursday. I can't wait for a fun day with my baby. I wish we could spend a few more days together, but I have to go back to work.

Dreading Monday

This weekend has been great. Thursday I went to Splashtown with Tricia, Scott, Donovan, and Nolan. We had a great time. I am so glad Scott was able to come with us. It was great to ride the waterslide with Donovan.

Friday was an ITZ day with Donovan, Nolan and Tricia. I am not a fan of ITZ. Donovan won enough tickets to get 8 ninjas. He has a great time. I am so glad. I love seeing my little man happy.

Saturday was another great day. Scott, Donovan, and I went to Anna's for housewarming party. Donovan had a great time swimming, but we had a little problem. Donovan was in the pool by the side. Well he decided to get a little brave and got too far away from the side. He could not swim. Scott had to jump in the pool after him. I felt so bad. He said he didn't want to swim anymore. I was a little scared. I talked to him and he gave me a hug. He said his heart hurt and I felt horrible.

Today was a laid back day. We were going to go to church but we had no water. I was not a happy camper. Donovan was looking so forward to going to church. He told me he wanted to sing to Jesus. Gosh I love that little boy.

Now tomorrow is the dreaded Hell day. I do not want to go back to work and sit for a workshop. I mean I need to figure out how to be elsewhere. I just realize that working at school is very political. You have to be young and cute to get anywhere up there. I guess it just took me a long time to see that. My feelings are just a roller coaster where work is concerned. I need to remember I have the power to change but do not have the power to change other people. I have a verse to help me through the day.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.


I need to place this verse on my tile in the kitchen so I can see it everyday. I am going to need it just to make it through the school year. God give me the strength to make it through the year. Please hold my tongue Lord.

Oh well it is late and i need to get in bed. I am actually tired right now. That is first. My little boy is asleep.

BBR Training

This morning I was dead to the world. I had to teach a training today. I stayed up too late looking for my jump drive for my lesson. I think it was about 1 am when I hit the hay, and woke up at 5 am. I was dead. I did make it through the day, but oh my word I was very exhausted.

Training went great. I love doing training. It make me realize why I became a teacher. I love teaching.

Donovan and I have done nothing. I am so excited about the rest of the week after tomorrow. I am taking Donovan to Splashtown with my friend Tricia. I will post pictures. Then on Friday to the beach. I can't wait. It will be so much fun. I hope he doesn't have Tball practice that day or I am screwed. I hope that practice can be Saturday.

I am so exhausted so this will be short. I need to hit the hay.
