Can of
I have a box of Russell Stover chocolates in my house that I am slowly working my way through. Tonight it is the Roman Nougats. First the dark chocolate, now the milk. I've decided that all of the candies taste pretty much identical, but that the texture makes the difference. The aftertaste always reminds me of maraschino cherry syrup.

One of my kids got their seat taken away at school today. I learned last night at P/T conference that they have been squatting in their chair and that the teacher had given up the fight. I emailed her today to take the chair away because I thought it was their way of getting away with a little bit of defiance all day long. Tonight in bedtime prayers..."help me to remember to sit on my bottom tomorrow."
.
Setting things in motion to help the littles survive the aftermath of their parents' bad life decisions. Sucks to think that we have to go through this and that there is no way to prevent it from hurting. Seeing the train wreck coming doesn't make it any easier except in that you can pray and start talking in preparation of ideas. Only a miracle can help us now. There may be a 7th on the way.

I have 11 days left of training. Ack! I will miss the person who is retiring, but it will be good to set up things my own way. Looking forward to the new challenges ahead.
.
Loving me some Nat King Cole tonight.

I was unfriended before I could accept a friend request from an old high school classmate. We have our reunion this weekend. I don't know what happened, but she was actually one of the few I remember. I've been looking through the list of names and I honestly don't recall interacting with very many of them. I'm going to have to hunt down a yearbook before Friday!

What is your life for if it isn't helping others? I was thinking the other day about how I spend my time and what is important to me and how that all mixes into this conglomeration of responsibilities. It really made me wonder what it would be like to live without a leadership role. What would it be like to only concern myself with governing my own existence? It seems so foreign to me that I almost can't imagine that it exists and that people live that way daily. What would it be like to just go to work, go home, do whatever you feel like until you go back to work, repeat daily, all without ever having any responsibilities to think about except paying bills? I suppose it would be like being a child except you got to choose your free time. Who knows. Maybe my brain is just too weary to explain itself well this evening.
