Time Flies!

Wow, I had no idea it had been that long since I posted.  I've been up to my earballs (I coined that.  Like it?) doing this project and preparing for an exam in my one special ed class and I haven't made time for much else, aside from some serious procrastination in terms of cooking.  I'll post those recipes later because they were so good that T and I had an actual fight over who got the leftovers.  Anyway, turned the project in Tuesday, had the exam today, and I already know I aced the exam, did well on the project, and got an A- overall.  I didn't do as well in college as I would've liked, so it's my aim to rock all my grad classes.  I loved the class and learned a ton, but cramming a semester into four weeks felt pretty exhausting.  So now I get to read some books that I want to read, finally!  Of course, now this class has got me thinking I might want a master's in special ed, too, but the insulation in our roof needs fixing first, so I'll put that on the back burner for a while.  Priorities, man.  Anyway, I have a lot of new ideas for the fall that I want to put into place, so that's exciting to me.  I don't know if you all get that same thrill, not all being teachers.  Heck, we get thrills by going to Office Max and staring at all the pens and sticky notes and things.  Our eyes glaze over as we take in all the possibilities and consider whether or not we can keep the receipt for reimbursement from the business office...ohhhhh....

So I'm off to lunch with my mom and sister because I'm hungry enough to eat my own hand.  Happy Thursday and I'll get to those recipes soon, now that I've got the time.

You rock so much, girl! And I am also a MUCH better student now than when I was at Colgate. I'm more disciplined and interested in the material. I can see you are too! Love! xoxoxox.
