Gotta love the mud puddles


I have pretty much nothing to post about so I thought I might as well write about one great thing. I am so, and I mean so, happy that it has been raining and NOT snowing! I like rain and it has been so nice for all the snow to just go away. The reason I think it is even better is for running purposes. It is much easier to run when you are not dodging snow drifts and sheets of ice. Needless to say, I had a great run with only one little hold up. There was a spot on the trail that was a huge puddle of water. On the grass to my left was a melty snow pile (easy to slip on) and on the right was mushy looking grass. So what should I do? Go for the snow/slush and risk slipping, slow down and go through the monster puddle, or try the grass? My split second decision was: mushy grass. Not my best move. It was a little more mushy than I thought and my foot sunk pretty deep. I got most of the mud off while running, but it is going to take awhile....oh well, I am not complaining. I am just so happy to be able to go outside I feel like jumping on my bed.

Oh and PS one thing I am not thrilled about: Jetman is not working on facebook. I guess I really am going to have to get these grades done. Blast!

HELP!!

So I am trying to re-do my resume to apply for all the schools in Wyoming and it is a major pain! I am not sure how to do the format or how it has changed since I graduated back in the day. So I have a favor. I am in a crunch and need to get this thing done ASAP (some jobs just opened up). If any of you lovely teachers have your resume still saved on your computer, would you mind emailing me a copy so I can get some ideas?? I know it's weird, but it would really help! Thank you!

Okay, I am done

I am done, done, done with all this snow!!! Seriously, I don't even think I am going to handle Wyoming very well. I can't do it anymore!!! As most of you know, I did NOT get to go home last night. I am finally home today after a sugary day of crazy kids. Thank heavens we only had them 1/2 the day. I am getting ready to take a much needed shower and go to bed. Two hours of sleep really doesn't cut it. Global warming my butt!

Jeff's Birthday Part 2


First of all--THANK YOU JONNA FOR THE HEADER!!! YOU'RE THE BEST!

So, Jeff's birthday has come and gone and I am sure you are all just dying to know what I ended up doing for the big day. When Jeff left Wednesday morning for school I got up and set to work. I decided to send him on a scavenger hunt through the apartment. So I put a card on our entertainment center and began by telling him to head to the fridge. I made him his favorite enchilladas and told him to put them in the oven while he found his first present in a drawer on our entertainment center. It was a propane tank that went with the next present that was in the pantry--a camping lantern. Then I sent him to the office to find a coupon for dinner and a movie. It was then on to under the couch to find a cast iron camping pan thing. Then I sent him under the bathroom sink to find a dutch oven bag/carrier thing. Finally I sent him to the bedroom to find a whole bunch of snickers and symphony bars--you know, I thought I should try to increase his cholesterol count a little more! Anyway, it was a big hit and I think he should love me forever--especially since I got him prepared for Wyoming camping!

I need help with the top but I think I might Jonna's little program. Anyway, just a post to say, I am frustrated and to say THANK YOU JONNA FOR ALWAYS TRYING TO HELP ME FIX MY MESSES AND FOR BEING SUCH A COMPUTER WHIZ!!
