Oh... the weather outside.....
Well... it's snowing again... and I may be home from work tomorrow due to another snow day. While i don't want to be in school until the fourth of July, I am ok with a day off. This weekend was busy... I spent the day yesterday watching middle school track meets... ALL day yesterday... 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m... I was there to take pictures of the kids to embed in the programs I am making for the weekly meets. I got some good pictures, but it is frustrating that so many of them didn't come out well. I had wanted to only spend one day there taking pictures and use those pics for the rest of the programs for the entire season, but... I don't think enough of the pictures came out well... I didn't want to have to go back because I want to head up to seem my parents on the weekends. So... on the pages where I am putting pictures, I am putting a note to parents that if they take some pictures and want them included in the program to email them to me and I will try to make them fit. Good Idea? I sure hope so... that would make my life a bit easier!
It's been a strange week... Last Sunday I was wiped out from my time with my parents combined with poor sleep... Monday was a snow day and I was less productive than I should have been... and the rest of the week felt like a million days in each 24 hours. Part of that is because of the coaching aspect of things. I had a lot of paperwork to do this week... finalizing the rosters, making sure all kids had tshirts, numbers, and all forms completed... next week should be easier... should being the key word. Once the paperwork part is done, it goes a lot more smoothly.
It has helped that my mom had a decent week... she even had a couple of vomit free days. Yahoo! I am planning on heading up there again this weekend... more time with them is important to me. I think some people think I am crazy for driving three hours each way as much as I am.. but I think I probably could go more than I have...and am hoping that now that spring is almost here, the weather should be better and travel easier.
I had an interesting conversation today...and mentioned how fortuante I am to have my parents as my parents... the person on the other end of the conversation said that hearing that was rare... I hope that is not the case. I hope that many people feel fotunate to have had the parents they had.
I am lucky.

Still following your blog. Still praying for you and your family. You probably can't see it yourself, but you are amazing in how you're handling your mom's illness and still teaching with passion.
Sending you good thoughts, and wishes for ongoing strength in all aspects.
