Echoing Tense Teacher…ONLY SIX DAYS! I am not a fan of the week long Thanksgiving break, but I’ll take it! IMO we desperately need a break b/w Labor Day and Thanksgiving. TOO long to go without one. I will be SO glad to have a break though. Our school grading program crashed Tuesday afternoon and was down all day Wednesday. All information entered Tuesday was lost. I had to spend today putting all of my grades back in. DANG IT! This means I wasn’t able to dedicate the day to teaching as I had planned. Yes, I planned to teach…amazing isn’t it. It frustrates me that teaching is not at the TOP of the list of things teachers actually have to do. Anyway, I refuse to continue this rant…I had a WONDERFUL time tonight. Jem took me to a local place where we had great food and entertainment. It is really nice to listen to a good band while enjoying the company of someone special. Jem was even allowed to sit in for two songs. Unbelievable, but it is the first time I have heard him play in that setting. 12 years and tonight was the first time. He’s hot, what can I say…LOL. I really am impressed with him. He’s a good drummer and a talented percussionist. He plays with a lot of feeling and that is impressive to me. It was good to get some time out too. Much needed. Life is just too fast lately. We have so much going on and so many plans to work toward. It seems everything we are doing is for the purpose of where we want to be in a year. That’s good in a way, but bad in that we are not living for where we are. In the last year we have met some really cool people and I love where we are. We’ve been in this area since ‘99 and it has taken this long to feel even semi “right” here. Just in time to move on to the next episode of our life. Strange how things work.
