Spring Break Woes

Once again I am posting about my online class. This time however... it is not going so well. I has every intention of getting all of my work done over spring break, but here we are, and I'm still working on finishing my project due this week. I don't know why, but I am seriously struggling with this movie project. At first I was over thinking it while I was trying to come up with an idea. Then I slept on it and decided what I was going to do. I found a weather graph online and I am going to do a modeling of how you can incorporate the weather graph into your morning circle time to cover one of the science standards. I would go into detail, but you non-teachery folks are probably bored to tears already. Now I am lost as to whether there needs to be a written part to my assignment. I'm probably trying too hard...again. But, I've got a good grade going so far and I want to keep it that way! 

I have to confess something. I am feeling very guilty about this blogging. Tonight I am not on my game. I have had an incredibly stressful week and I have about had it with life. I was so excited about spring break. I actually wrote a list about all of the fun and awesome things I was going to do during my break. I did not get to do a single thing on my list -_- I have had a week filled with homework, classes, appointments and crap I did not want to do. Uuuuuggghhh. The only thing keeping me going is the fact that at the end of April I will be a free woman. Thank god. I am going to veg out like no one has ever vegged out before. Until then blogging friends....suffer with me.


1 good thing about spring break : I've gotten some good snuggle time with this guy :)

To run or not to run.

Caution: If you enjoy running- don't read this post. 

I happen to despise running. I envy the people who get on the treadmill at the gym and glisten lightly as they bounce like a damn leprechaun on the treadmill for no less than 5 miles at a time. Ugh. My reality is that I can't even talk myself into GOING to the gym. On the rare occasion I actually talk myself into going, I end up looking like a sweaty hairball having a heart attack. I. try. so. hard. But, I am just not cut out for running. I start out ambitious and in great spirits, after .5 a mile I am feeling the burn, .75 of a mile and I start wishing I had a gun, 1 mile and I turn into a sort of red, sweating, angry, gasping fish/hulk. Not cute. 

Sooooo... who signed up to do The Color Run Columbus.... this girl! Yeah....

Close, but no cigar

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the epitome of being married. No, I am not comparing being married to shitting on the toilet. Being married is all about the placement of the toilet paper. Notice, there is a roll of toilet paper. Notice, there is a toilet paper roll. -_- One must simply take the toilet paper 2 more inches to the left, pull out the toilet paper roll bar and insert the fresh roll. But, is that a husbands job.... nooooooo. Now, don't get me wrong. I think, you think I'm overreacting. This is the SECOND time this week that the toilet paper roll has been placed two inches shy of where it needs to be. This is definitely part of my husband's master plan which involves me losing my mind and him claiming a life insurance policy. Or, this could go in my favor and he doesn't wish to live past his 27 years of life. We shall see.

On another note..... I am getting really damn sick of seeing certain pins on pinterest. FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS. I think that is what I should have named my blog. Damn. Too late now! I really, really, really despise the woman who INSISTS that she can consistently buy groceries for her family of 6 for 50 bucks a week. It. Makes. Me. Crazy. Nothing like reading something like that to make you feel like a failure. Do you know how many people I cook for?! Two! Do you know how much it costs me every time I go to the grocery store?! A heck of a lot more than 50 measly dollars. I want to know who this woman thinks she is making these crazy claims. I tried spending only 50 dollars, I really did. But, you know what? My food tasted like shit, I didn't have options, my cravings were making me crazy and I had to buy a bunch of crap to keep the cost down. SO SHUT IT woman who spends 50 dollars per week. You can kiss my well fed a$$!

Blog chicka wow wow

Alrighty, you blog following hooligans.... here is my latest post. I have to be honest. I haven't worked on my modules in quite some time. I look at them, leave, look at them again, think about them, come back and about 1 week-ish or so later I actually get my butt in gear and work on something. Sigh. I like to think that I am a productive person and a hard worker, but the truth hurts. Who has time for homework and student teaching and blogging anyway!? Not this girl. So, back to the module work and google docs. I totally understand why google docs would be a part of this class. It is a program that so many people use, how could it not be a homework assignment!? Now that I use google docs I can share my list making with my hubby. Muahahahaha... there is no escaping the honey do list now! As for kidspiration... I have to say, I am not a fan. I tried to like kidspiration, I really did. I felt like it was more trouble than it was worth. I mean, if you were a teacher (not a first year teacher) and made one of those every so often, and kept them year after year. I might be on board. However, I know that some of the links I used in mine probably won't be around for years to come. So, while it is a great thought... I would have to pass.
