Day 31

Today I am thankful for:

• Getting to go to the doctor today. That's right! Some people do not have health insurance and can't go to the doctor when they are sick. I am so thankful that I am able to walk into a doctors office when I do not feel good to get medicine that will help me (well, let's hope that it helps this time).
• The beautiful snow today. I love watching it snow. I even bundled up my students and let them do a "snow dance" outside of my classroom door in the snow for 60 seconds each. They were adorable! I told them that if they do a "snow dance" that it would snow more. Let me just say that they DANCED out there! I'm not gonna lie, I even did a little jig.
• Crockpots... need I say more? They make cooking so much easier and more time efficient. Our pork tenderloin smells so good. Mashed potatoes and peas are the sides. We are splurging a little bit with our diets:(
• Our new sleeping bag that we got aboout a month ago. I haven't felt good at all the past two days so when I got home today I got in the sleeping bag and watched lots of shows. It was wonderful.
• The SEC basketball tournament. It is giving us our "sports fix" for a little bit and mentally preparing us for March Madness baby! Rich and I always do brackets and make bets. I have won the last two years!
• Favor! I had a meeting with my principal on Tuesday to go over all of my evaluation paperwork and to sign everything. First of all I got great scores on everything and wonderful feedback. The only thing she said in any way that was a "way for me to improve" was to update my website for my classroom. I had SLACKED and had not updated it since Thanksgiving! I told her that I would do it Wednesday during my planning time and finished it yesterday. Today I got a note in my box along with the other 8 teachers that keep their webpages updated that we get two hours to just work in our classrooms tomorrow instead of having to sit through the technology inservice!! I'm so thankful that I updated my webpage yesterday!!! God's little way of taking care of me. Thank you Lord!
• A healthy baby (or two).
