been so long, back again

OMG! It has been over a year since I have written on my blog.  My life has been a whirlwind of excitement and changes.  Since last post I have graduated from college, became a Special Education teacher, been on two cruises, got pregnant and had a beautiful baby girl! Kitty is now a big sister to little Zumpkin.  I am currently out of work on maternity leave and I will be making my appearance back to school at the end of October.  I am a little concerned about how I look when I go back.  I hope that I can lose some more weight and fit better into my clothes before I walk through the threshold of education.  I am not worried about the adults talking about me, but the kids.  I am currently stationed at a middle school and those kids are a little harsh with their comments.  They say whatever is on their minds so I need to step my game up.  I got away with some stuff with my style when I was pregnant because I was pregnancy.  They will not let me get away with anything now!!!! I also wanted to start a new blog because I am a first year teacher and wanted to have a place where I could share weekly updates of my interesting adventures with the kids.  This blog will be more of a weekly place of life updates that will not focus too much on my work.  I will try to update each on a weekly basis.  I will leave you with some exciting pictures of the past year and a half.

back again on the map

Soooooo.....I am back again on the map telling everyone of my lovely times of life. It has been a minute.  Things have happened that have clogged my mind and made it difficult for me to find time for myself.  I got married. Kitty got a nanny. Kitty lost a nanny. Love got a car. It snowed twice this winter when it never snows here. I don't know. Things are going quite crazy and mixed up. It is actually snowing here and I have to go to work. Frozen streets and all. I am praying that people drive safely since most of the city is closed anyway.  Hopefully I will be able to drive the truck so I sit high over the ice and snow :) These are times when I wish I was working from home, but then no benefits so I guess it works out better this way.  Yeah!!! Snow Day!!!! 

ps I deleted my Facebook page. It was getting on my last nerve.

Family Time!

It has been a minute since I have blogged. I need to get on a schedule, but sometimes I get so preoccupied with other things that I just forget what was on my schedule of things to do. I am still trying to decide if the family is going to be taking a vacation this year. I have so many things to save up for that I do not want to spend money unless really needed, but I really want need a vacation. The whole family needs a vacation with some one on one family time. I am currently in school and if I buckle down and hustle, I will be able to graduate May 2011. That is my ultimate goal right now besides paying some bills that are long overdue. Right now my favorite past time to release the stress is playing video games, working out on the wii, and watching my favorite anime Bleach. I love that show so much. I watch it religiously just as if I would watch Law and Order Criminal Intent.

makes me want to scream

I sometimes ask myself why is it that I make decisions that I really do not want to make.  Sometimes I think that I am stronger that I really am and that I can deal with it, but then reality strikes and I realize that I can not and that someone probably needs to punch me in the face to wake me up to the reality that I clearly can not see. But then there are those times when I do something and no matter what happens that makes it feel like a bad idea, I still feel peace about it when I go to sleep.  I guess all of this is a mess because I am a little bit of a mess.  I guess that is why sometimes I just want to scream because I am so freaking weird.  I like being weird.  FYI, I really really REALLY need to clean up my room and as soon as I do that I will have pics of my little piece of comfort.
