Crawling out of bed is harder than it use to be...

I can't decide why getting out of bed is so difficult....is it because I haven't been able to work out lately so I don't have the energy, is it because it is getting close to the end of school and I'm just getting lazier, or is could it possibly have something to do with my waist going from 27" to ...an undisclosed number?

I am so excited about school being out on the 26th! I guess I am most excited about getting things done this summer. I'll be able to workout every day (if the Dr. releases me), lay out, do lesson plans, swim, work on the babies room, cook....ok...well, yes...to the untrained eye these things don't really look like 'getting things done'...but these are things I enjoy doing and feel a sense of accomplishment after doing!! Therefore, I deem them important!!

I've been selling Prom tickets this week since it is this Saturday night. High school boys just amaze me sometimes! I have told several boys(with a smile!) "I realize that it is the last day to buy tickets and you forgot enough money to buy you AND your date a $4 ticket....borrow some money from a friend...you invited her, don't you think you should buy her ticket too?!?" (Side note: I only said that to students who were so irresponsible not to bring $ today, never to a student who might possibly not have the $). Some of the boys hung their head, a little ashamed that I had to say it(knowing that their mothers would have said the same thing), others it was a light bulb moment...like their brains were saying 'what a great idea'!!!

It is days like this that I question even more than normal(if that's possible) what would EVER possess a teacher to date a student! If anyone has read the San Angelo paper lately, this just happened at a school about 15 miles from town! ...Coming to a town near you, child predators!
