Holy Moley, it's April!

Time is flying so much more quickly than I can keep track of these days. I think that I just might make it through what seemed to be an endless first year of teaching... HALLELUJAH! Things are, as always, insane as far as that goes.... but the end is in sight!

So, we're staying here in Abingdon at least one more year, which is fine. The thought of moving made me a little bit sick anyway. I kind of like our apartment and being able to open the windows that face the woods! If we would have found something else in Aberdeen or something, chances are there would have been no woods! Also, everything else is a ton more for less utilities paid, and most importantly, less toilets! I think we're good where we are.

I'm trying to figure out what I am going to do about a job for the summer. I'm not really worried about it, since I know I will find something, and I have a few possibilities. I want something flexible so I can relax and enjoy the pool and stuff! ...and maybe be able to take mini-trips and all. I just can't stop thinking about how glorious it will be to not have to work like a dog planning and writing IEPs and stuff!

Soooo yeah... I thought I would put this song on here, since it's on the mix tape (CD) I listened to most of the week on the way to and from work..... Everytime I hear it I think about it more and more.

Is this the strange feeling
Of you working all to good
'Cause I am so confused
I don't even ask for what I should

When I asked for and deserved a stone
You broke and gave your body as bread
And even the stone that dropped down and rolled away
Spoke of the one who bled

There you go working good from my bad
There you go making robes from my rags
There you go melting crowns from my calves
There you go working good of all I have
Till all I have's not that bad

When I asked for and deserved a serpent
You gave a net full of fish
And even the serpent that told the lie
When lifted high foretold the gift

For you so loved the unlovable
That you gave the ineffable
That who so believes the unbelievable
Will gain the unattainable
