Impressed

If you are reading this post, then I'm rather impressed. I haven't posted anything in over a month, so if you're here reading, thank you. What a blogging dud I am, but I'm just so busy with speech and debate, teaching, and grading essays that I feel like I have no time for myself.

Things are good. Busy, but good. A quick update for those "in need"...

1. Speech and debate is nearly over for the season. When it hits hard, with tournaments every weekend, boy does it get tiring. But toward the end of the season I realize that my time will soon be my own again, and I start to get sad. Just three tournaments remain until the State Tournament in March. After that, one small tournament at the Statehouse in April, and the National Tournament in June, that is, if anyone makes it this season. These last few tournaments are the hardest for the students and coaches, and I will be thankful when March 6th gets here!

2. Lots of nothing going on in the house right now. John and I have finally gotten to the point where we need to decide on colors, as these white walls are starting to drive him bonkers. I dislike painting, so I'm in no hurry, but he's driving me nuts wanting to paint. Wish us luck, as with white walls the sky is the limit with color options!

3. John and I went to see Dr. M (my Reproductive Endocrinologist) last week. I needed my thyroid prescription refilled, and was told that Dr. M wanted to see me. I wasn't sure why he needed to see me, but it turns out he just wanted to touch base and make sure that nothing abnormal was growing out of my body before he renewed my prescription. Being in the office made me sad. Not that I miss flushing my hard earned dollars down the drain on treatments that didn't work, but sad that I wasn't cycling. Sad that I was lacking that excitement and hopefulness that I once held when I visited that office nearly a year ago. Who knows what the future will hold though...

4. Lastly, I would like to quickly update about my sweet niece Rebecca. Shortly before Christmas John's sister C called me to thank me for the gifts I sent to Rebecca and her half sisters Angelica and Victoria. Needless to say, I was shocked. C and I had a nice, amicable conversation after not having spoken in over a year. Since that day C sends pictures about once a week to my cell phone of Rebecca. And I must say, she is simply beautiful. I've heard a rumor swirling in the family that C would like to talk to John, and I know for a fact that he really wants to talk to her too, so I hope maybe the past can be put behind us and we can move forward and get to know our newest niece(s).

So there you have it...F I N A L L Y an update from me. Just what you were waiting for, huh?

Thanks for reading.
