It's just a Wednesday

I had this really LONG post I was going to put up, but I accidentally deleted it or blogger did. So here is what I remember!

The library: a place where I spend 20+ hours a week in. Lately, the football boys have been there and have just given me a dose of comic relief that I need. I am so appreciative of those smiles, nods, and waves; more than they will ever know :) I also take the little girl I babysit there and we have a blast looking out the third floor windows at the boys, trees, birds, and so much more. M is a joy to work with!

Third floor Newsroom: For the past three days, the elevator has been broken; this means that I have to happily climb the three flights of stairs with arms full. I defiantly feel those 8+ times that I did this yesterday...today. I spend a bunch of time up there editing and it is, for the most part, peaceful!

Projects: I believe, really I do, that Elementary/Special Ed school needs to be renamed to project after project school. I am just above water right now and found out that I have THREE projects due next week with TWO on Friday, May 1st. Golly gee people! Finals are the week after that and then I have a weekend. After that I am in May-mester till May 29th. Looking at this right now seems like a bunch. But, as Mama Gen would say, CHIN UP! I am taking this advice too :)

Life in general: I am doing a neighborhood 5K on Saturday and a youth service project on Sunday. Plus homework, projects, and more uh projects!

I have been amazed at life's blessings around me and am extremely grateful for them all. Hope you are having a great Wednesday!

Hey Elyse,

Just wanted to make sure you checked out Kayleigh Freeman's blog today. It's a very sad day. =0( They need our prayers more than ever.

Secondly, I wanted to invite you over to do a "Memory Lane" post if you can think of one. I'm trying to get a new thing going over on my blog, so stop by if you get the chance!

Keep climbing those steps. It's good for ya! Keeps ya young and fit! ((even if it hurts))
