Dinner for the family

365 projects–

I made dinner for the family tonight–Poppy Seed Chicken, boiled potatoes with kosher salt, and steamed broccoli. It was delicious. My parents and sister came to eat with us tonight. We added salad, and there was plenty for everyone.

What I found on my walk...

What I found on my walk…

Actually, this little guy found me–or rather, he found my husband. I took him up and down several streets looking for his family. I could tell he was well loved. He was very sweet, and clean. I have no idea how far I walked tonight because it was back and forth. On the bright side, I met neighbors I had never met. On the brighter side…his owner heard him barking in our garage and knocked on the door. We were happy to have him with his own family!

First Day Back…

Today was the first day back at school after the Christmas/Winter Break. Other than being a little tired because I could not sleep last night, it was a great day. I love working in a place where the people are happy! I work with the most wonderful staff, and we have a wonderful leader!! I can honestly sat that in 20 years of teaching, I have never been this happy. When thinking about the end of my break last week, I was slightly upset, but not because I was going back to school. I was upset at myself for not finishing everything I needed to do over the break, but excited about going back to school. This is one of the few years where I am not trying to figure out which organs I can donate so that I can have 2-6 weeks off. Yes, I have considered that in the past. I will just keep my organs, thank you. Now, I get upset at the thought of missing one day! In fact, if I could do the Susan G. Komen 3 Day for a Cure next year without missing Friday, I would. It is truly a blessing to have a job where I get excited when I wake up every morning.
