Update

I just wanted to do post a quick update. Last week I had to start taking allergy shots again. After not having them since I was a freshman in high school, it seems really asinine to have to go weekly again. Plus there isn't any place convenient to go get them, but they will help and I should be a lot healthier this coming year.

Last week I had an emotional week with my students. They mean so much to me and I wish I could take them all home. Sometimes I wonder how their parents miss the best parts of their child! Instead most of my students' parents are out dating, partying, working, and doing other things that keeps them from home with their child. It breaks my heart, that's for sure. I even have a student who lives with his grandmother and his other siblings. They live in a 1 bedroom home and he sleeps in the living room on an air mattress... how sad!!! It is also funny the amount of respect these students have for me. Parents will call as to behavior help and it is just funny how natural it comes to me and yet maybe if the parents would spend more time with the child it'd be a different story.

As for updates on Dustin... he is drilling this weekend and if he hadn't taken leave on Thurs and Fri, he'd be working 2 weeks straight. You see, Dustin is active duty in the Air Force, right? Well he works 5 days a week normally and then when the yay-hoos that work in the guard (1 weekend a month, 2 weeks a year) Dustin has to work those as well for no extra pay. On top of that, it is constant flying and busy busy busy! I guess whatever it takes to defend our nation. We've gotta train these boys some how right?

Nothing much else going on around here other than normal life. I've joined the Mona Vie company and am selling/promoting the Mona Vie goodness. You should check it out at http://www.monavie.com or http://www.buildthejuice.com or even http://www.brighart.com. This juice has changed my life and the business will provide me with financial security for those pesky student loans. So if you want to see healthy changes in your life, join the company to gain financial freedom, and/or just want to help me out, just let me know!
