I will survive...HEY HEY!


Well, not really again...since it has been YEARS since the last time....but yeh. I blew it.
Overdrawn.
Which means I even went through the "buffer" money that I don't add into the checkbook, but it's there to safeguard me.
I know where it all went..to groceries and summer clothes and even the pool membership.
NOone to blame but myself.

Luckily my bank honors the debits then just charges me for them.
but still.

just means it's time to tighten our belts again. rethink all the summer fun we were gonna have.
we can do it. we've survived worse. way worse.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I have an inservice to get my required Arkansas History hours tomorrow.
Not sure exactly what it will be on, but the Secretary of State is doing it..or is sponsoring it..??? My 2 co-teachers from across the hall, my "pod-mates" will be there, too. It'll be ok.
It's only 3 hours..I will survive!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I got to lay out by the pool today again...after working on my storage building for a couple of hours.
Didn't get it all finished, but collected 2 garbage bags full of trash and got rid of quite a few empty boxes in the process.
It's getting there.
I'm so anxious to start rearranging the kids' rooms..but it's still way too early. I don't want Matt to think I'm pushing him out. and I need to wait until I can afford paint and a carpet cleaner before I do too much.
I hate waiting when I'm on fire to do something.
but I can.
I will survive the anxiousness.

Hey girl!

I didn't know you were still writing here. I haven't been here in ages because no one reads me, but Andres wanted to be able to read my daily accounts of Boot Camp, so I cross post here.

I'm sorry you're going through this rough patch, but it WILL pass. You never know what good thing will come to you today!
*hugs* Love you!

So..it's a new year. And I haven't posted here since..umm..May. I have been thinking of deleting this blog..or at least all the entries in it, and starting over. Maybe a school blog. I see tons of cute ones everyday when I'm perusing pinterest. I could do that. maybe. no...probably not. But I might try. This place did not turn out the way I wanted it to. I have my personal "diary" blogs/journals elsewhere. This one is too public for that anymore. I should make it something fun. I don't want to lose it. Erica made it so cute for me. I don't even know how to do that... or, for that matter, delete the entries I have here. I can't find the "dashboard" button that use to be there. hmmmm.. This may take more time than I thought.

Alphabee Thursday: E is for Expectations

Image
Today is Alphabee-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter E. is for yep...that's right. Expectations Such a big word. Dictionary.com defines it as Something expected. hmmm....kinda vague, so I looked up "EXPECT": 1.to look forward to; regard as likely to happen; anticipate the occurrence or the coming of 2. to look for with reason or justification: There are certain things I just expect in life: * I expect the light to come on when I flip the switch. * I expect the microwave to pop my popcorn perfectly in about 3 minutes. * I expect whatever I'm plugging into the electrical socket to work when I turn it on. * I expect to be given correct change when paying for a purchase. I also have expectations of people in my life. *I expect people to do what they say they will do *I expect my children to do what I ask of them, when I ask it *I expect kindness instead of rudeness in public *I expect honesty from others. *I expect my dog to jump all over me as...

C is for Crayon

Image
Today is Alphabe-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter C...so let's get right down to it. is for ahhh...the simplicity of crayons! An essential tool in my profession, and yet such a vital part of our lives. Crayons have the ability to color our world. They add life to simple drawings, brighten up the darkest of pictures, and create rainbows on rainy days. After completing a writing assignment my students will often ask...."Do we have to draw a picture?" "Of course you do!! And use your crayons!" I will reply. And then the real feelings of their topic show through. Without color, how dull our lives would be. No yellow sunshiny days. No pink cotton candy. No blue skies and green grass. Lollipops would be tasteless and lemonade would be just water. The fashion industry would go bust and movies would not be worth seeing. Crayons add life. They add spirit. And they make me smile. Even tho a wee little piece of one was the bane of my world on M...
