Saturday Thinkings

Well, Well. Aaron just invited me to post to our blog. Go figure, blogging is something I've never been super good at. I had to keep several blogs in college because that's how my professors liked getting their feed back. Maybe now that it's not an assignment I might enjoy it.

It's a lovely Saturday morning and we slept in until 10, which is super late for us 5am risers. We are looking forward to the 3 day weekend, but like always have lots of To Do's. Whenever we get free time it seems like all we look forward to is the break, and then we end up over scheduling ourselves with things to do, and jobs to be done. Oh, well. We did stay up last night to watch two movies. "The Bandidas" with Salma Hayak and Penelope Cruz...needless to say Aaron loved it! I really liked it too, to was a good laugh. We also watched "The Waitress" which was good, but not my favorite. There is this aweful husband in the movie and I can't stand to think that any woman in this world puts up with a bad man. Shivers. It touched a little to close to home I think, I see families like that at school too often.
Speaking of school, this last week was parent teacher conferences and only one of them left me seriously traumatized. These simple 15 minute, necessary meetings, cause more stress for a teacher than I think parents realize. We are a huge part of your children's lives, and your opinion really does matter, and your child matters even more. So sharing bad news, or being honest, and worrying if I am a worthy protector and educator of your child according to your standards is very nerve racking. So last thoughts... Be NICE! To Me, and your Kid! We are both doing the best we can!

Time to get going don't want to waste too much of your time...not that anyone besides Aaron (who is reading over my shoulder right now, so he wont read this anyways) will read this.
