Long time

No blog.

That's because I have a lot of crap to do these days. Too much to think about, too much to do! So here is a short list of what has happened in the past couple of months

-Jeff re-enlisted, this time into the Army. He might go to Africa next year...yay for him! Boo for me, because I'll have to stay here (so much for any adventure!)

-School is almost over, so that means I am almost done with my 2nd year of teaching. Did it go better than last year? Eh...it had its ups and downs. I'm not sure what to think of teaching yet. I get so frustrated sometimes, but then there are times like these....

Student A: "Mrs. D I was watching The Office yesterday and they had our vocabulary word on there! It was cuckold...and I knew what it meant before they explained it!"

Me: "Oh, so you have actually learned something this year!"

Times like that are awesome, but most of the time they are out done by times like these...

Student A: "This class is so easy, it is like a blow off class."

Me: "Then why are you making a C."

Student A: "Because you don't teach us anything important like Math, so I don't care."

UGHHHHHHHHH wouldn't that frustrate you? I challenge anyone to teach junior high for one week and then reconsider why you are frustrated or upset with your job. Junior high kids can be the most cruel and uncaring people sometimes and they honestly don't care if they hurt your feelings or make you angry. Detentions don't bother them, talking to their parents doesn't matter to them...they are immune to all authority!!!


Well...that is all I have for now. Hopefully, I can update on a more regular basis now that summer is rearing its 100 degree weather head.
