“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”

Man oh man. This week (and last week too) have been crazy busy! Trying to figure out housing, next year's plans, summer, life in general. Oofta! Why am I writing this, when I have a lesson plan due tomorrow, that still needs quite a bit of work...? No reason in particular, just procrastination I guess. It's all good, tomorrow is Friday. Busy and fun weekend ahead of me. Jazz Cabaret tomorrow, Art workshop at the Minneapolis Institute of Art and home for Morgan's birthday Saturday, dad's come for father/daughter day on Sunday. That means laundry, cleaning, door decs, and bulletin boards now. Oh boy... here we go, hold on tight!

As I grow to understand life less and less, I learn to love it more and more. ~Jules Renard

Hello world!

Spent way too much at Target yesterday, but it's whatever. Got a sweet new water bottle, some "teacher" clothes, and some awesome $1 section magnets. Call me a nerd? Maybe a little bit.

So one of my favorite holidays is coming up :) Valentines Day! Why? Not really sure, I think I just like the "girly," pearls, pinks, reds, fun and excitement that comes with it. Can't forget the heart shaped pizza!

I'm excited to start blocks in the schools next week! Will be long days, but it will be so much fun! Let the lesson-plan writing begin...

"Life As We Know It" just came out on DVD. Great movie! I kind of want to get it.

Happy almost Friday!
