Running in the Rain

Can you believe what a beautiful day? You may think what in the world is she thinking…it has been raining all night….not just a little sprinkle, the full down pour. I am in Southwest Missouri now and they are just as dry as every other part of the mid west. This rain is a delight. I woke up this morning to a bird running into my bedroom window…(didn’t die) My windows aren’t clean like the Windex commercials so I don’t know what its deal was…lol After the rude awakening I decided…it isn’t 100 degrees outside so I should go for a run. What a run it was…nice and cool. I came back extremely soaked, but it felt wonderful. The whole time I was running I was thinking that people sometimes say that the rain is God crying…I would like to think of each drop as an answered prayer at this point in time. For those of you who love rain go take a run!
God Bless

school days

Wow I made it through the first week of school. I got kids in my class on Wednesday. Most are the same size as me, but they still call me ma’m. I am enjoying the idea of teaching….but scheduling my time and making sure that everything gets covered in the day sure is tough. I find myself thinking about what I need to get done for school even out boating this weekend. I can’t wait until I get in a stedy rutine. I can’t believe that the next break I have is Labor day weekend…Oh and I’m looking forward to coming back to Ames for Amanda’s wedding in Oct. and staying for 5 whole days! Little John didn’t recognize me and I was only gone for a few weeks….so sad. I miss not being in college I will admit. I miss seeing my friends. I get along with my co-workers and hope that I can build on that relationship with all of them. I am longing to find a church down south still. I hope things are going well for you, the reader. Well I’m off to work some more.

First Day Jitters

Tomorrow is my first day with kids....please pray for me......not sure I'm ready!
