It is almost Friday! I am excited about that. I am blessed to have a job I love and wonderful people to work with, but when Friday comes, I am still as excited as the kids. Besides that I have an extra long recess duty on Friday! It's a perk of being a special teacher. I don't mind too much. The classroom teachers need the time and I've been there.
So tonight I went jogging with my friend Katie. Well, I guess that's stretching it a little. What I mean is I jogged slow and Katie jogged really fast so we weren't together, but I could see her from the other side of the track at all times. It was inspiring to jog with a friend. We decided, by our own calculations that if we keep this up we should be Olympic runners in a week or so. Katie is a lot younger than me, so I think she has higher expectations. We did go 3 miles and I actually jogged 2.5 or so of it. I don't even think my ankles are going to break anymore, but I do worry that some part of my anatomy might actually come loose and fall on the track. Nothing yet!
I guess that's all the excitement for tonight. Hopefully there will be some projects to see this weekend! (If I'm not too sore to photograph :)) Have a SUPER Friday!!!
Oh...the pics are from a family reunion in Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago. Those kiddos crack me up. That's my momma in the last one! Looks like me only older. Kind of scary. Real Scary. Okay...Like I said....Have a Super Friday!!!
We got a dog. Actually, we got him quite awhile back, but I just didn't post about it. Part of me thought I might actually return him and he ran away once, so who knew if it was going to work. I didn't set out to get a dog really, but when the local dog catcher came to school to collect on a little dog someone found wandering around she mentioned they had this cute little Yorkie who needed a home. We checked him out on loan for the weekend and now he's all ours. I'm not sure he's actually a Yorkie. He's a big whopping 12 lbs. Of course we named him Lucky. That's what everyone names a dog they get from the pound right? His full name is Lucky Jack. The kids don't like that, so Austin calls him Yucky and Ash calls him something different every time she calls him. I won't tell you what I called him when I came home and found he'd chewed a hole in the screen door to the garage. Or the words that spouted from mouth when I found he had pooped a pile bigger than himself right beside my scrapbook table and then hiked his sweet leg on a crate of scrapbook supplies. He does have the right name. He is Lucky to be alive.
