What to do... what to do...
I feel like I'm back to the question of " What do I do with my life?"
I spent way too much money trying to get my credential, and now I don't even know if I can finish due to that stupid CSET....if only I had a time machine.... but alas, I don't.
I'm sitting here thinking, I know I want to be a mom someday, but I'm not ready for that right now. So until then, I could be a receptionist (but unless it's somewhere with a lot of nice people, I will get bored; been there, done that); I can continue to sub (but we need money to live); I could be a teacher (I've been trying for 3 1/2 years!!); I could be an interpreter (sounds awesome! more school? Yes, but maybe it'll be different. But what if I suck at it? Then I'm right back where I'm at now); I could do photography (sadly, I don't have enough confidence in myself)....
When asked : What makes you passionate in life? My answer : God, students, and science. What else can I do with that combination of passion?
I like this quote that my pastor put on his facebook status today. It really meant a lot to me when I read it:
"All holy desires grow by delay; and if they diminish by the delay, then they were never holy desires." -St. Gregory
So over the last 3-4 years, my main desires have not diminished... hmm....
Abba, guide me. Please? Amen.

Maybe once a week??
Well, obviously the writing once a day didn't really work out so well. I'm thinking I'll shoot for once a week.... but even that might be a stretch for me. We'll see. We've been busy with Mika, work, and problems with our apartment complex.
Mika got fixed on Monday and has been a pain (not IN pain, but A pain) since. Poor thing is supposed to be isolated and lay low for two weeks. Not going to happen.
Work has been good. It's down to less than a week left of the school year! My kids have a written final on Monday, we're going to watch a movie on Tuesday, and then Wednesday/Thursday we will be going to a restaurant and the kids have to sign the whole time. It's fun and a good experience for them.
The drama with our apartment complex.... it's a long story and I don't want to post much about it until it's over. But we could use your prayers with all of that; prayers for peace, patience, and favor.
Thanks!

Photo Journal : Day 17
How many years have we been drinking cough syrups, and they still haven't found a way to make them taste better?? Come on! I'll admit it's not AS bad as it used to be, but maybe that's just because I've grown up a bit. As a kid, this would still be dreadful. But at least I'm not coughing!

Photo Journal : Day 16
I can't believe it's only been a little over 2 weeks that I've been doing this photo journal blog; it feels like it's been 2 months!
Today's blog was just going to be about my day, but I wanted to add in some crazy things that have been happening in the world: The volcano in Iceland blew again, and this time it was worst than last year's blow. My sister is in Poland for work right now and I'm praying that she will be able to come back home safely and on time. Joplin, Missouri got hit by a terrible tornado. Now storms are sweeping through Oklahoma and Alabama. It's sad and I pray for those lost and those who survived.
My day :
I got about an hour of sleep last night due to my neck/shoulder/upper back. It is a horrible pain and I could not find any position to sleep last night that didn't hurt. When I woke up this morning, it was just a bad. I was wondering how I would get through the school day but was prepared to figure it out. When I got to school there was an email from the Principle's Secretary, Chandra, saying that there was a roving sub on campus today if anyone needed her. I felt bad asking but figured it wouldn't hurt to try. I walked as quickly as I could to her desk and asked if it would be ok that I have the sub? Chandra had no problem with it and when she asked if I was ok, I started crying. I told her about the pain and my night. She sent me home with orders to rest and get better.
My friend, Joy, is a massage therapist. She came over today to work on me. It felt great! I'm still in pain now, but it'll most likely be a pretty slow process getting myself back to normal. She said that my shoulders are stronger than my pecs and upper back, so they took on all the stress of whatever I was doing; basically I need to get stronger so that my body doesn't have to overcompensate. Makes sense.
After the massage Joy, her husband, Aaron, and me went to Dickey's BBQ for lunch. They had never had it and loved it!! We had their soft serve ice cream for lunch. Yum!! Joy took pride in dishing up a large soft serve cone for me to take a picture, but when she tried to give it to me to eat, I told her she could have it :) The picture below is her masterpiece, upside down, in a cup. Still delicious.
