Treat a Woman Right

Just a few years ago, a fun Saturday night for me would have included dinner and a late movie at the cool little old school movie theatre. Afterwards, we might have gotten Slurpee's or donuts or something and then headed home to watch weird shows that only come on super late at night (stuff about aliens, conspiracy theories, etc, the fun stuff). But now things have changed. Do you know what I got tonight and I'm just flipping thrilled? A nap! I got to sleep in the bed for like 1 and 1/2 hours.

I think all the stress and strain from the week just finally caught up with me. I had my last week of class, papers to read, folks to meet with, house stuff to do, babe to love and take care of, and all the other stuff that goes along with being a wife, mom, teacher, and er-thing else.

More progress on the county house...plumbing is done and now the walls are all up, thank God. Just painting and other small finishing touches to make. We are hoping to clean up next week and start the move in process next weekend. It'll be weird to have a house. Even weirder because we've been in flux for such a while now and I really do hope and believe that being there will help to set a foundation for us.

More on the progress front, I have actually started to work on a teaching philosophy statement. I'm trying to spend good time on it so that it can actually be good and not poop. Any suggestions from all you teaching folk out there? Cause a sista wants to get back in the giz-game with school and working.
