Pink Eye and Blogging

So this morning around three am I woke to very puffy eyes. I being my moms daughter chose to put some neosporin in them. Now I know what you are thinking. "HopeSister that is a bad idea, it says right on the tube not to use in your eyes." Well to that I say Bah! I am not blind yet. Well I tried to go back to sleep but my eyes were watering and being distracting so I decided that I would not be able to go to school like this. After I got myself a sub I went to school and got some lesson plans together then came home and slept. It was a wonderful sleep and when I awoke my eye lashes were stuck together.

I went to the eye doctor around 11 and in a few minutes she told me I had pink eye and gave me some drops to use. Um.....also she went and got a camera and took a picture through the machine, so she could have an up close picture of my eye. Odd. I know.

The remainder of the day went pretty smoothly. I made a wonderful pasta sauce for dinner, i ate pasta too but I just had to boil that and it doesn't require much talent. I also gave terri the recipe for Tommy Cakes. They are delightful and I will add the recipe here as well for your desert eating pleasure.

Anyway, I am sitting here clicking on random blogs and smiling to myself because I am realizing how many peoples stories are out there being told. Their lives being lived. It is amazing to me when I think about it. These serve as a reminder of the times that people have shared together. How great is that!

Goodnight!

SPRING BREAK

It has been a long weekend and my spring break is almost over. Thursday we were out of school but had meetings all day. I know meetings don't sound like a whole lot of fun but they were surprisingly not that bad. After the meetings were over I had T Power take me by the Pharmacy and my house so I could get some sweats.  I got sweats so that I could go back to school and participate in a "lock in". Now don''t worry I was not in any danger, the doors were not locked (i checked). We did play dodge ball and kick ball as well as hen's and chicks.   If you have never met me I just want to warn you that I am a bit competitive and I may have gotten mad in kick ball and thrown it a little hard at my bosses wife. Oh well, she was out.  After all the old people were tuckered out from a long day of meetings and then a few intense games we left the building for the day. A few people stuck around and decided that it was time for some mexican food.....and drink.   A good tim...

When it rains....

There is a torrential downpour. A-Mo went to the doctor last night. She was having pain in her leg thinking it was sore muscles. Turned out to be two blood clots. Woah. My classroom is right next to A-Mo and she is always there when I need to talk. Was very worried about her today.  On top of this my financial situation is leaning towards dire. I may be eating cans of tuna this month..... the dented ones even.  I am horrible with money. I love to spend it. Wether I have it or not.  I just want to do nice things for the people I love. I am super nervous about being in T-town next year.... but at least I know a few people there. It is not like moving to V-town where I knew no one and seriously felt like I started from scratch. I spent the first two weeks before school started reading the ENTIRE Harry Potter Series... Though I wouldn't trade my time at Hogwarts for anything it was a tough time in my life. I am also closer to GraceSister without moving further from JoySister. Which is ...

True Joy of Life

True Joy of Life This is the true joy of life. The being used for a purpose Recognized by yourself as a mighty one. The being a force of nature Instead of a feverish, selfish Little clod of ailments and grievances Complaining that the world will not Devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life Belongs to the whole community And as long as I live,It is my privilege to do for it Whatever I can.I want to be thoroughly Used up when I die, For the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch Which I've got hold of For the moment And I want to make it burn As brightly as possible before Handling it on to future generations.
