Hello all, well any of you that still bother to check this since it has been so long since I wrote. At first I did not write because I was irritated. Yes I have discovered through this blog (actually I kind of knew it, the blog just confirmed it) that I am needy like a dog when it comes to praise and/or feedback. I want people to acknowledge what I do, now!! Facebook is bad for this too, I get upset if no one has commented on my status. It is pathetic, I am getting therapy and taking pills for it.... (extra points for anyone who can name that quote :) Anyway as part of my therapy I am going to write on this blog regularly no matter if anyone comments or not. (It would really encourage me though if you did comment, please, I need it)
So we are already almost to Halloween, the time has gone by fast! School really is going very well so far. I don't even have a "bad" class so far (knocking on wood now.) I am getting to the frustration point with students who refuse to do anything in class or outside of it. We have a new intervention system that we are doing this year though and that is helping, every week I get to pull some of those kids in and give them some one-on-one attention. It is a lot harder to do nothing when the teacher is sitting next to you walking you through the assignment!
I have also been attending an aquacise class. As most of you know I hate exercise but for multiple reasons it became even more clear I needed to do something. I had heard some one talk about how much they liked the aquacise classes at the local rec center so I decided to try it. I can't say that I like it for the whole hour but I like it enough to finish the hour. Also it is really good on my bad knees. I was going twice a week very regularly until the last two weeks when I got sick. I have to start up again next week. This might get more difficult when it gets really cold, I hate changing in gym settings. It brings back flashbacks to junior high.
Well I hope all is well with you and I promise to be back soon.

Hi. You know, I'm pretty freaky about comments, too. I think it's the down side of writing a blog. A person wants validation. I get maybe 2 on any post. But, I just tell myself that lots more people are reading without commenting.
Glad school is going well.
Hope you're feeling better! Kudos on aquacising! I did find that water aerobics was less miserable than land-based-aerobics. I still haven't found a "fun" exercise though.... Wanna color my hair when I come? I bought some dye for Lissy's costume (Alice Cullen), but it is too light for her hair. Makes quite a statement on mine though... I'm scared. I don't know the quote, but I am curious...
I've had trouble keeping up with the blog too, but for other reasons. I love validation too. I love your posts, I think you're so funny, and I read your stuff, and relate so much. Keep writing.
