Is it possible I'm losing interest in blogging already? After all, it has been a month. Or is it just that my life is an absolute chaotic blur? But then I ask myself, "How can that be? I only work part time, I have no kids at home, I don't do lunch with friends, I don't even have many friends, I don't watch TV, I don't cook to speak of, I don't exercise. What the heck am I doing with my life?"
I have been doing some reading--I'm finally allowing myself to do that--now that I'm in Bible Study again. I used to tell myself, I won't read for pleasure if I can't even find time to read the Bible. So now I am free to read, and of course when that happens, two or three hours go by in the blink of an eye!
It is the end of the year at work--which means tons of paperwork--my least favorite part of teaching, report cards, meetings, cleaning up the classroom--and my fantastic partner (Sarah) helps with all that. So once again, what is my problem?
I did move my sister to a different apartment on Saturday and part of Sunday. I'm still recovering from that! And I had lots of help!
Could it be I'm not as young as I used to be? I have apparently been fooling myself. Just the other day, some woman (no friend of mine, mind you!) asked me if I was Janet's mother. (My sister is two years younger--granted she has NO gray hair, but please!) That is the second or third time that has happened in the past couple of months. And then my little first graders wrote me birthday cards and suggested in their little notes that my age might be anywhere from 45 (those are my favorite students!) to 100!! Crap! That's it--I'm old!! Dang--I was hoping that wouldn't hit till I was at least 75 or 80!! I'd best get off my duff and start exercising!! Thank goodness Tuesday is the last day of school--no more excuses!! Maybe I'll even take a Yoga class. I heard someone say it's the fountain of youth!! And maybe I'll get back on the wagon of eating healthy. I was going great guns for about a month--then things seemed to get too busy. How could eating right take so much time? Furthermore, I may even start blogging more--that seems to be a young person's pastime. You'll be hearing more from me right after I get back from spending the day at Disneyland tomorrow!!

What do you do with your time, are you kidding? I feel like I take up most of it with having you watch Tanner or teach a Sunday School class, or lunch, or Disney! I love keeping you busy. See you tomorrow!
