First attempt at this...

I actually have a few "free" minutes before I have to rush off to my next meeting, so I thought I'd jot don a few things that are no m mind..
I have chosen not to blog prior to this because I was dealing with issues that really brought my spirits down and I didn't want to inflict my "downer"moods on those people I love the most---my family. (Plus it is hard to type through tears!)
I feel as though I have reached a major milestone in that I can talk or think about my marital situation without crying 95% of the time. I know that my Father in Heaven has been a constant at my side during this trial and that He has heard my prayers and has enabled me to have the strength I so needed.
The time for the visit of The Moving Wall is getting closer and closer. I am in a state of controlled panic. I have so much to still do, yet there is so much that has been accomplished so far. I have met some truly special people directly as a result this project. I have had so many unique experiences that have come as a direct result of "heavenly intervention." This week alone, I have three speaking engagements. I have always felt comfortable in my classroom, but speaking intelligently in front of some of the elite citizens of Tifton can be really intimidating!! As much as I hate to get my picture taken, going on live TV is really a challenge! I think I am still recovering from the four and a half hours of straight sitting in a cheap plastic chair! However, I have learned that I will do whatever it takes and talk to whoever I need to in order to get the word out about the upcoming Wall visit. I am looking forward to standing back and watching the events unfold and people's reaction to their experience of visiting the Wall.
The Lord has blessed me with some truly great students this year. They seem interested and eager to learn and so (knock on wood) there does not seem to be any major discipline problems. The school day seems to go by so fast. I find it hard to believe that I sent home mid-quarters today!
I plan to start back to school on October 6th. I will be working on my 6 year Specialist degree online. I will be taking it through Nova Southeastern University in Ft. Lauderdale. I will be finished with it in December 2009. My degree will be a Specialists in Curriculum and Instruction.
Well, gotta go for now......
