School

Well school starts up again soon. Our first workday is fast approaching and I have to say I am not as excited about this school year. I am not sure why I feel this way other than I know I am leaving because of the baby. My motivation just isn't here. I am sure though once I start getting back into the swing of things that my excitement will return. I am hoping that my students this year are good because last year was insane. You know you have a bad class when 2 of your students are going to professional anger management classes outside of school. I had veteran teachers tell me, "At least it can only go up from here."
So anyhow, update on my dad... he is doing better but still has a long way to go. We are not sure at this point how much of his finger he may lose because it is all dead tissue. I just can't imagine going through what he did. They say pygmy rattlesnake bites are one of the most painful. I believe that.
Well we got some of the furniture cleaned out of our spare room which will become the nursery. It was a disaster. We had a couch and two chairs in there, a table and a desk. It was the "junk" room. So I have a lot of work to do to go through it all and clean it out more. It is hard to believe that in less than a year there will be a baby in that room. Our son or daughter at that!
A lady in our small group is a vet. and someone dropped off a 3 week old kitten at her clinic that they had found at a gas station. So she had it at home and was bottle feeding it. When we went over there for our small group I fell in love with it! I was cuddling with it and holding it. It was the most precious thing you've ever seen! I don't think there is an animal out there that isn't cute as a baby. Well maybe snakes, ha ha ;)
