or lack of oscars...
I wanted to post today about the how much i love the oscars.... but unfortunately... recently I do not.
I mean, I DO... and I love to make my picks. But The past 5 years or so, I just haven't had time to see any thing. And usually I have at least seen most of the movies. This year... I have been so busy that Tad and I HAVEN"T EVEN SEEN ANY MOVIES! The only movie we saw this year was: Star Trek. Terrible.
Just a few weeks ago Tad and I finally got in motion to FINALLY go and see Sherlock Holmes, we checked online, 7:45 Showing... We had dinner before, and we walked to the theatre only to see a sign that said: "THE 7:45 SHOWING OF SHERLOCK HOLMES HAS BEEN CANCELED." Great. The only other thing at that time were the parade of scary movies made for teenagers. No thanks.
Just our luck i think. I guess I"ll have to netflix all of those movies and start watching.

there's no time... there's never any time..
i'm not to the jessie's song level yet... but I am feeling the pinch. Since Jan I've been working pretty well, and not taking stuff home with me... but I've pushed a lot of things off (planning wise) and now its all back to get me.
And since I've been a lifelong procrastinator... i am a huge super stress bubble. yikes.
I am also behind on uploading my 365 project.... I have all my photos taken, just not uploaded. yikes.
But, The good new is: I blogged today! I guess my dream of staying on the ball with this blogger is working!

blogging goals
Lets get serious. This is Not a new years.... But a Shake - off - the - winter - slump resolution. So Welcome March!
Here are my commitments to blogging in no particular order.
01. No apologies. my life can be boring, and I can neglect my blog at times. But here and now NO apologies for not posting or posting something boring, unexciting. If its worthy, I'll blog it. if not... then you can un-follow me.
02. Who am I blogging for! i know all 5 people who read this... and they know me. If you know me, you know my (full) name and my school and all that jazz. I will not be identifying anything. I have very techno savvy students who would die to see this. so. I regularly google myself to be sure i am untraceable.
03. No blabbing. No rambling. This is super hard for me as I have a lot to say - but most of you (all but maybe my mommie) get bored when you see a giant paragraph. i know i do.
04. Consistency. I will blog. Hold me to at least 4-5 times a week. I would like to do daily, but I'm just not that exciting. We'll see. Plus, i need to have more time.
...if you haven't already, and you'd like to set some blogging goals for me... please do. I'm taking my cue from a fab blogger martawrites. Take her blog&business course with me! I'd like to give the appearance of being a professional.

My Fabulous Bible Study
I know It's almost all the way through January (wow)...
But it was my first week back in Bible study after our Winter Break, (and I missed last week due to family in town). I love my Bible study so much! Though we were really small tonight, I still felt so loved and prayed for by these girls! I was so blessed to be a part leader in this group of young women, and we are growing right along eachother. I can't believe how far we all have come in six months... I am so excited for where we will be another six months from now. If you're in town and need some girlfriends, let me know, we'll go!
Plus, this Bible study is Kick-a.
It mixes enough intelligence into it Daniel that I feel like I'm really thinking and not just blinding following. So, if you haven't looked at it its Daniel from Beth Moore. I know some of you that follow me are into this Study as well, doesn't God just speak to you? And if not you, then you know its speaking to someone else directly?
Ok, thats all, I'm just super jazzed about this.

The Dreaded Sunday Night....
I have come to HATE sunday nights....
There is only one reason for this.
School is the next day.
Please note the following items:
-I love teaching. Each day is an adventure, and I have a bunch of kids to impart my knowledge on.
-I love my school. Though we are working through the kinks of a brand new school... We are all passionate about what we do. Teaching. And we are all good at it.
-Really, and truely i am not a bitter teacher who hates her students and can't wait for the day to be over. In fact, my day flies by and suddenly I'm done.
But... after three weeks of sleeping in and not seeing some of the knuckleheads that plague my classroom - I'm beginning to like it. I think anyone would rather stay at home in thier PJs and watch day time TV. I know i do.
But... I am the worlds largest and biggest procrastinator. I was planning on using my time home to catch up on grading, and also to lesson plan so I wouldn't be in the place I am here at 8pm on sunday night.
And this leads me back to Sunday Night, and the hatred I have for this type of night. Here I am, avoiding the inevitable with facebook, blogging, unpacking a box... anything to get away from the lesson planning, the finishing of the new seating charts, the looming pile of notebooks...
Maybe tomorrow will be review of rules day....

Project 365
I have been convinced by Bri and Jen to start up this Project 365 or i've also heard it called Daily me. But the concept is the same. Document your life. A picture a day. Share it with the world.
So here we go. They won't all include me. and they won't all be exciting, but they will be my life.
I hope to capture some little piece of my life and be able to see how far i've come since this day (or actually yesterday.)
This also requires me to be uploading everyday, and I know how busy i get at work, so i'll need ya'll to keep me accountable. This also means I'll probably be more prompted to add a few of these to this here bloggy blog. So follow along! Join in! You dont have to start on the 1st just start today, or the 3rd!
So to start of this new decade, here we go. . .
