Snowed in...again!

Remember those days when you were a kid and your mom would come wake you up and tell you school was cancelled because it has snowed the night before? Those mornings are just as much fun even when you're an adult...you know, minus my mom coming to wake me up. I'm pretty sure none of us in the Little Rock area were expecting it, so it was a pleasant surprise. I think total we got about 6 inches and this time it was all snow, none of that icy stuff like 2 weeks ago. It was so beautiful just to sit and watch the big snowflakes falling and fun to play in it! Although I do start to go a little stir crazy after being stuck at home after a day or so. Lets hope though that we don't have anymore snow days because I've got my trip planned for Australia in June right after school gets out, so I can't be stuck making up days!

Test worries...

Tomorrow I go to Arkadelphia to take my first of 2 exams to get my teaching license in Texas. To say the least I am very worried. First of all, Its been what...3 years since i've taken a test?! haha. Second, I keep hearing about how hard this test is. I'm sure I will do fine. I will just feel so much better when its all over. I have to take the second test on Wednesday, so after that it will be over! Then I just have to sit patiently and wait for my scores. Its such a scary thought that so much is riding on these test. I have to pass them in order to get my teaching license in Texas...in order to get a teaching job in Texas...in order to be able to move to Texas! Get the picture? :-)

Snowed In

Well, last week we had a little ice storm in Little Rock! I say little because people from the north would probably laugh at the amount of snow and ice we got. But it was enough to make the roads very icy and pretty much everything around here shut down, so we (Marley and I) stayed in from Thursday night until Sunday afternoon. Friday was great, no school, I stayed in my pjs all day and watched a ton of movies. Saturday morning was still ok. I cleaned and got a lot done from my to do list, but my Saturday afternoon I was going stir crazy. Luckily things started to melt Sunday morning and I was able to get out of the house. I had to add a picture of Marley, because he was just too darn cute in his little jacket.

As part of my new years resolutions this year was to keep up better with my blog. So I've decided to make some changes...or at least attempt to. I am not high-tech and not creative so we shall see. And with my changes, I've also decided to broaden my topics beyond "my teacher life". Although that is a huge part of it...its not all of it! So if you can stick with me while I'm figure it all out :-)
