School's Out
Yesterday was such a good day. There is this man that I work with who is such a sweetheart. A few months ago he was showing me a picture of his daughter that was in his ragged wallet. I told him she was too pretty to be in such a worn wallet and that I would get him one for Christmas. So yesterday I told him I had something for him. He thought it was the papers I had in my hand. I said, no, it's in my room. So he followed me to my room and I gave him the box. When he opened it, his mouth dropped. He was so happy. He said, it's real leather. I said of course. He didn't even notice that it was Perry Ellis, just that it is leather. I was just glad he appreciated it. He said I made his day, but he made mine because he liked it so much.
Then I had a date with this guy. He is ok. We went to a Mexican restaurant after school. We were supposed to go later in the day, but his daughter had a Christmas program, so we had to go earlier. That was sweet of him. I liked that he knows how to prioritize. He is going to pay for my dirty dirty new car to get detailed today. I'm going to keep him around for a while.
I talked to one of my friends last night. We hadn't talked in a while. She is coming to my house later on this evening. She is considering making this particular guy her boyfriend and I am happy for her. When I met him, he seemed so nice. He seemed genuinely nice and that's a rarity. I hope this one works out for her.
I talked to my friend in Iraq. I don't know if I miss him or I am worried about him. He will be home in February. I'm glad about that. He was just talking and talking. I let him use a whole heap of my minutes. It was worth it. I was just glad to hear his voice.
Today, two of my co-workers are grilling steaks. I am not fond of steak because they are usually too tough to eat. I told them when we went on our field trip that I have never had a good one, so mine will be special. I'm excited. I was going to go home as soon as the bell rang, but I will stay, enjoy the steak, get my car detailed, finish cleaning my house, go to the grocery store, and wait on my friend.
In case I am not here for a while, I hope everyone has a good weekend, a merry Christmas, and a happy New Year. Be easy.

THIS IS SO ASH
You Are an Old Soul |
You are an experience soul who appreciates tradition.
Mellow and wise, you like to be with others but also to be alone.
Down to earth, you are sensible and impatient.
A creature of habit, it takes you a while to warm up to new people.
You hate injustice, and you're very protective of family and friends
A bit demanding, you expect proper behavior from others.
Extremely independent you don't mind living or being alone.
But when you find love, you tend to want marriage right away.
Souls you are most compatible with: Warrior Soul and Visionary Soul

Not at my best
I have been so busy lately. I am so glad this first semester is almost over. My children aren't too happy with me now because I didn't exempt all of them. They cannot be exempt with an unexcused absence, so even those with As will be here looking in my face this week.
For the first time in my life, I feel lonely. I have been alone for a while now, but I feel lonely and have been feeling this way for some time. I need some companionship in my life. I am in a strange place with no friends. My closest friend is 40 minutes away and works on the weekend. When I want to go places, I go by myself. I have a complex about being by myself though so most of the time, I just don't go. I come from a big family, so I am not used to this. I am tired of being single. I need someone to occupy my time on a regular basis. I met this guy this morning. He flagged my car down because I had an AKA tag on my car.
The girls on the dance team are so hard headed. I am about tired of their attitudes. It is killing me. I want to just tell them all to go home and not come back. They just don't listen. I hate it when children act like they are grown. I would rather work with a group of girls who can't dance than deal with their attitudes. That's the way the cookie crumbles though.
I guess that is enough complaining for one entry. Until next time............
