Dear Life....SLOW DOWN!

Ever since I have graduated college life seems to be flying at warp speed! Each year seems to get a little busier and crazier, I need more and larger vehicles when I move because my things seem to multiply, I lost my first stack of my students' papers (sorry kids) and I get less and less sleep. I want life to slow down! I know that it won't, especially when others give me that twinkle-in-the-eye smile that says, "Good luck I tried that one already!" So here I am noticing all the good things in life right now: I live with two great roommates downtown, have some great girlfriends and one great boy one (I'm not taking questions at this time ;) ), I am still mostly sane, I always seem to have chocolate for emergencies, I seem to never be home (which must me I am busy having fun right?)and I have 28 1st graders that adore me ;). What more could I ask for? Well today, after attempt #2, I received my "unofficial" email that I was accepted into Utah State's Master's program. It seems to me that the chaos and craziness is self-inflicted, however, I am excited for my new adventure and grateful for the opportunity to help my brain grow a little more so that I can assure it doesn't shrink :)



Girls weekend in Park City!

  2. Wow, now I actually have somewhat of an update on my long lost Alisa-poo :) Glad everything is going well and that I'm not the only one that's going (or have GONE) CRAZY!! When you ever get a free minute, we need to play! :) Congrats in getting accepted into the master's program! That's awesome!
