Worst

Wife ever. That's the award I deserve.

I try to be good and get things done. I try to keep all my crazy, rampant emotions in check, and I fail.


Seriously, does anyone have tips to get over being emotional and moody? Because I've got nothing.

Year 2: Prep

Tomorrow starts my real preparation for my second year of teaching!!

I am excited and nervous at the same time.

But tomorrow, with some help, I'm going to get the bulletin boards put up and ready for meet the teacher on the 7th!! (Is it just me or does school start earlier every year?)

Hopefully I'll get a few pics!!

What in the world?

I don't know who reads this, or if anyone even does.

But today SUCKS. I'm serious.

Today is Day three of me trying to be healthy and exercise again. (Still working on the healthy diet part, tbh.)

Instead of feeling good all day like exercise is supposed to do, I have had a rotten one. I don't know if anyone else suffers with UTI's, but they SUCK. BADLY!!!

I had plans to do stuff today, but instead I'm stuck on or near a toilet.

Worries

There is one good thing about working. I teach all day and I come home tired and wanting to sleep.

I can't keep this up much longer.

About a month ago I started having little panic attacks. (I'm pretty sure that's what they are.) Usually they happened at night when I'm falling asleep. I would lay in bed and as I'm falling asleep, I would hear a noise. And then I'd hear more and they would send my pulse into hyper mode. Some of the noises I could tell exactly what they were, but not why it was doing it. For instance, we have a stair that will creak randomly when the house settles at night.

After the first noise, my body is alert and my brain is signaling trouble. My heart is racing and I keep thinking about all the things that could happen. It could be a robber is the usual thought.

Well, a week or so ago, I was sleeping better through the night and not hearing the noises as often. At least… I wasn't hearing them at night. For the past week ish, when I'm home I hear noises from around the house and my body goes into instant alert mode. I am constantly afraid of someone breaking in while I'm home.

There is no reason for it. I tell myself all the time that it's the house making the noises. But I still go into panic mode. It's really becoming detrimental, since I'm stressed and wired up all the time thinking about it. Even right now I'm trying not to listen to noises. It really sucks. I was hoping my last couple of weeks would be restful before school, but I guess not.

It's started...

After weeks at the beginning of summer of having dreams about school, I finally had a few weeks reprieve.

Now that's over.

I had my first back to school dream about the new year. I was not impressed with how it went. Haha

I was trying to get Spalding stuff done and teaching procedures. I eventually noticed that my name tags weren't on the right desk!! :O

So overall, it wasn't that great and now I'm going to be planning procedures. Haha

I hate school dreams.

Instagram of the week

Here are my Instagrams of the week.

Not very many this time. Spalding class stuff and a drawing. :)

Instagram

So, I have an Instagram, and that's how I share most of my photos. In fact, that's mostly why I take photos.... so that I can share them on there. hahaha


Anyways, I was thinking of maybe posting some of my favorite pics from the past week or so and sharing them with anyone that wants to see. And I think I'll post my favorites every once in a while. (Best would be once a week, but I don't want to commit to that yet. haha Not with school looming in the near ish distance.)


Here's a few to start!

Dessert from our anniversary dinner.

Ice cream sandwich

Fourth of July celebrations

My Spalding course has this book as a basis for all language arts instruction. (Spelling, Reading, and some Writing)

A date, a couple of birthdays, and an anniversary

So, this past week has been pretty awesome and crazy busy!

I can't believe it's already been a week since fondue night with the Staples. It was fun, and good food! I still can't believe how awesome (and huge) the oreo ice cream cake was!

On Tuesday, we celebrated my mom's birthday with dinner and then a movie under the stars. Yay! And then the next day we celebrated America's birthday! Spencer enjoyed the celebrations until the fireworks at home. haha He was always reaching for his mom.

And since I didn't post this yesterday, I'll just put a little note in saying that today is two years since I married the most amazing man ever! He has helped me grow far more than anyone else, and I am so grateful he's a part of my life! So, here's to two years down, and eternity to go!
