i'm sick :(

well, i had to leave school early today to go to the doctor...have i ever said how much i hate the doctor? if not, I HATE THE DOCTOR! except for this one time where he was hot...and single, but that's a different story! anyways...i have gastritis. how yuck does that sound??! my dad told me i'm turning into an old woman! so, i'm going to lay here, watch full house and hope my tummy feels better...it couldn't get worse than it felt this morning!

hope you're feeling great today...i'm sure i'll be better once i get some drugs in my system!

a quick update...

i've done a little scrapping lately; not enough, but that's what Christmas break will be for! here's they are...

1-Living with a boy...about the messiness i always came home to when i lived with my brother

2-watching the world RUSH by...me sitting on a train on vacation

3-sonny money-the $100 classroom teachers get thanks to sonny perdue

4-a frame for my friend anna who is teaching in Africa (hope she doesn't see this...if you do, hope you love it!)

this is the last week of the year with students! teachers go next monday morning, but then we're all out for the year! that sounds so amazing!!! two and a half weeks of sleeping in, scrapping late at night, and having time to do the little things around the house...like clean!

42-30...GO DAWGS!!!

this is a 2 parter...so much to share since the last bit of bloggage!

part one...

so, this weekend was the GA/FL game. i ended up going with my parents, which was really ok with me. instead of going to the landing, i had dinner payed for, worked on my school stuff, and slept! the BEST part of the trip was WE WON!!!!!! finally, i was at a ga-fl game that ended up the right way :) GO DAWGS!!! here are some pics...

part two...

have you ever wondered who your true friends are? i'm going through this right now. things have been happening around me that make me question the people who i called my friends. from skipping out on my birthday to talking behind my back, i just don't know who to trust. pray about this if you will. it's making me depressed to the point that i would rather sit at home alone:(

part three...

ok...i had to add a third one...here is the cover to my this is me journal.

it started like any other monday...

this was such a great day...i felt i needed to write a little so i can remember it :)
it started off like any other monday...but i stopped at Truet's for breakfast...yummmmm!!! this, of course, made me late, but not too late! today was the last day of ITBS so i had a little time to get things straight before i had to start teaching the kiddos. all of my classes were really, really good today. like, just about the best overall they have been all year...even my class that makes me want to cry was great! i'm giving them treats tomorrow :) i left school at a decent time, and i took a short, yet refreshing nap. then, as i am watching tv, the phone rings and it's this amazing...yet younger :/... guy. we talked for a while, which totally made me smile :) :) :) i watched the first episode of dancing with the stars, made my votes for jennie garth, watched lauren on the hills, then caught the end of the bachelor (more yummy than breakfast!). i know it wasn't all that eventful, but it was A FABULOUS DAY!!! now, i'm up too late, so it may not be repeated tomorrow, but i hope it will carry over!

hope you all have a TERRIFIC TUESDAY!!!!!!!

playing catch up...

it's amazing how far behind you can get when the summer comes to an end! on this official last day of summer, i'm still trying to catch up on everything...including this :) school is great! i love my kids...i had some of them in 6th grade, so the back to school transition didn't last very long. we have so much on us trying to reach AYP. i know that public school is a government run institution, but it seems that sometimes thing would be better if teachers could teach instead of doing paper work for the state! anyways...enough of that!

football season has started...my favorite time of the year! i love waking up on saturdays in athens, watching game day on ESPN while getting ready for the game...tailgating in 100 degree weather then spending the afternoon/evening with 96,000 of my closest friends wearing red and black in sanford stadium! for those of you who aren't in to football...you don't know what you're missing! here are a few pics of the past 3 weeks at UGA games...

we also went to the braves game for stephie's birthday...fun game...even if there's no hope of any post season action :(

other than that, not a whole lot going on. not a lot of time for anything else! i do have an opinion question for those of you reading this...what is too much of an age difference between couples? i am 26...what age is too young for me to date???

toby kieth...

guess where i'm going on thursday night...to see toby kieth!!!!! yay!!! i'm pumped up! another teacher had bought the tickets, and she won't be able to go...so...i am! my friend andrew and i are going. the only problem...i have to get up on friday and teach :/

ok...i'm really back!

FINALLY!!! i'm back among the living...i have cable and internet! i felt like i missed out on so much over those 2 weeks without it! here's a quick catch up...

in july i went to the mountains again..it was fabulous! so relaxing :) here are a couple of pics from the trip.

lots of hanging out with holly...4th of july and laying out. i got so burned i peeled for a month!!!

one of my really good friends, Anna, left for 2 years. she'll be in Africa teaching at a missionary school. we had gotten really close over the past few months, and i already miss her! here we are at her surprise going away dinner and on the morning that she left...
my cousin caroline got married...she's a year older than me, so i guess all the focus is going to be on me since i'm the only single girl left in the family! if i'm ok with that, why can't everyone else be??! :)
i started back to work on the 23rd. can you believe school starts in july??! my kids came back on the 26th. i already feel like i had never left. so far, things are going REALLY well. all of my classes are wonderful. i can't wait to see all we can accomplish this year. i just want the kids to love math! hopefully, then they will want to learn :) i'll have to take some pics of my classroom to share! here i am walking out the door on the first day...

ok, so now i'm back online, and i plan on blogging everyday...even if i have nothing to say :) leave comments, because i've missed my stalking time when it comes to your blogs! fill me in...
