Been christmas shopping. I love it. I can pretty much get it all done in about 2 stores, but sometimes I get distracted and go onto other places. I wish I could just buy gifts for people who actually need the gifts, but i guess giving a gift is a way of saying you love someone.
I truly do not know what I want for Christmas. I keep thinking...still nothing. Receiving a gift is definitely NOT one of my love languages. Just give me a hug or tell me I am the best at something...and I am good to go! Words of affirmation. :)
Although, I did receive an AMAZING gift today! Wonder Wafers!!!! These are little credit card size wafers you place in your car to freshen your interior! I got "leather" aroma. My principal bought me some. Probably my fave gift of all times! :) You have to order them online. So, there....go get you some.
Love spending time with my daughter. Since she moved out on her own, every day she is off of work, we spend it together. Now, I know it cant always be that way, but for now, we are enjoying every minute of it. She told me this week, "Mom, on my days off, I'm supposed to have some time to myself, but you always make it a mom/daughter day." Now I dont know if that mean she doesnt want to spend every minute with me or not....LOL! Oh well, we have a blast and will enjoy every moment. :)
Thanksgiving is going to be nice. I am cooking the turkey and sweet potato cassarole. My favorite Thanksgiving food is my dad's cornbread dressing. I like to eat it with a roll all on its own. Its the best ever! I love this time of year.
night.

Life is a tad hectic right now. Hectic, but nice. The weather is snappy and cold. I like that. Well, only for a few months, then on to warm again. :)
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. I hate that saying, its so corny, sort of true though. But, I guess that's where I am right now these days. It's hard working full time, taking care of my family, and trying not to think about things that bring sadness to my life. Jesus brings me joy, dont get me wrong, but I AM human! I do worry and get sad at times. I just want everyone healthy in my family and want them to all live a long, prosperous life. I need everyone. :) Jesus is my strength. He gets me through these times.
Fave Bible verse:
Matthew 6:25-34
vs 26: Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
How awesome is that????

today
Sitting here thinking about my day off tomorrow. So nice.
Today was a great day. My students are learning how to read small sentences with small words. Some of my students already read quite well, the others are very eager to read and are doing such a super job. I am proud of them. It's hard getting those phonics down pat, but they will.
I love my class. They are awesome!
Getting ready for Christmas once again! I have already been shopping. I have so many to buy for. I like to get going early although not as early as I'd like.

40
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report: if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
About to turn 40 soon. Its crazy because I remember my parents turning 40. I am there now! Well, I still feel young. I guess its not very old anyway. It will be fun. :)
