Confessions

So, I've been working on typing my story up because I really want to get it published sometime.

It's going well. I can't wait until its done!! Halfway through what is handwritten.

New Year's Resolutions

I've been thinking of resolutions. I've never been good at making them (or any goal), let alone finishing them. (As you can tell by it being the 2nd before I write this post. Haha)

Here are three or four goals for this year.

1. Finish typing up my story and send it to a some publishers.

2. Exercise three to four days a week.

3. Read scriptures every day.

4. Be more decisive when J asks me for an opinion, especially for date nights.


I hope I'll be able to complete my goals this year!!

Merry Christmas and heading toward the New Year

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I know I did!!

My favorite gift was my body pillow. So soft!!

I loved seeing the faces on everyone as they opened their gifts. And I love not having school for a whole week more!!!

Now it's almost the new year!! So exciting!!

Such a comfort at this time

I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

And thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

Till ringing, singing on its way
The world revolved from night to day,
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

And in despair I bowed my head
“There is no peace on earth,” I said,
“For hate is strong and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.”

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
With peace on earth, good will to men.”



This song is one of my favorite Christmas hymns.

My thoughts and prayers go out to those in CT.

Ups and Downs

I have never felt so many ups and downs before in a short time period.

I'm stressed and then everything is fine. My students are great and then I want to slap some of them for acting up. I think I can survive my job until May, and then I want to quit and do something else before January.

I don't know what to do anymore. Tips on surviving life? Because I am fresh out of ideas.

Pyromaniac

Yes, I am a slight pyromaniac. I love fire. It's warm, it looks cool, it smells nice. And it's fun to play with. ;)

Nothing better than watching a fire burn with my Jason!!

Attitude of Gratitude: 29 & 30

I can't believe it's December already!! Here's my last gratitudes.

29: I am thankful for a couple of calmer days teaching Thursday and Friday.

30: I am grateful that I did this, even though towards the end it was hard to remember. It really helped me this month.

Now on to Christmas posts!!!! :D
