sick of being sick!!!

Brady and I have the swine flu! It is not fun, to be brutally honest with you its quite horrible. I have been sick since last saturday
and am starting to get better, but still cant go anywhere because I will get others sick. So I am crossing my fingers that I will be able to go to work Saturday. Now Brady is only getting sicker, shoot!! But we think that we are cute sick people coughing and such together. So a word to the wise,for your own health stay away from us for a few days.

You Make A Difference

Ok so I got this along time ago but I just read it and remembered how much I love it so I thought I would post it because everyone should read it. I know its long but worth your time.


you make a difference. You teach them and they teach you
Everyday,everyway, Take good care of yourself.
Learn how to say "yes". learn how to say " no".
work with great passion. Do great work.Look
for the results of your efforts but know that you may
never find them. Keep looking anyway.
Hold on to your dreams.Aim high and never look back.
Hold others to high standards.Value doing the right thing.
Say " im sorry" it opens more doors than saying "im right".
Live responsibly. Teach Responsibility.
Discover your potential. count your blessings. count on your
friends. Be a friend.
Bless those you call collegues. Recognize their potential.
Embrace it. Cherish it. celebrate it. Respect it.
Treat others with respect. Teach others how to treat you with respect.
Practice being assertive in the shower, water wont talk back. Be refreshingly sincere.
Teach. educate. Facilitate. Learn.Learn. Smile. GRow. Love . Pause. Laugh.
Love yourself. Smile at who you see in the mirror.If they dont smile back- get a new mirror.
Dont expect praise to bring you happiness.Give praises to others. Tip 20%.
Always say thank you.
Dont complain. Speak positively of others or not at all.Never speak negatively of your boss. Silence is golden.
Take time to be quiet. Pray. Pray for those you hate as well as those you love.Pray for yourself. Find faith when you feel you least deserve it.Be faithful to others. Dont give up on people. The ones that push you away are the ones that need you to be the closest.Dont shut your door.
Value time, the weeks, months, years, days hours, minutes seconds, even the moments become your life.
Boredom is not a state of mind. its a state of not using your mind.
take longer showers, especially when visiting relatives.
Never honk your horn at the car stopped in front of you at a stop light. How you spend your time is the only true measurement of your priorities in life.
Take vacation time. Eat cheerios every morning.Sing loudly into your car stereo on your way to work.Roll down the windows, sing louders.Play at work. Eat lunch, walk at lunch time.
Listen to the birds sing. watch the flowers grow. God does great work.
Love yourself enough to take care of your mind, spirit and body. Balance work and play.
Expand your mind. Mind your own business.Start your own business.Be aware of your talents and give of them freely.Rip up your charge cards. why pay interest?
Take charge of your future. Earn interest.
The future is yours to create!!!
Build it . Believe in it. live it. you are worth it!
Never give up on what you do or who you do it for each day!
education makes you free even though sometimes you may pay the price.
Ignorance will cost us all. Celebrate our differences.Never forget why you educate.
Just do it, then do it again.
Roll with the punches. Be a role model. Laugh. make others laugh.Tell jokes. Remember sunshine can warm a heart.
Bring baked goods to the office. try making no fail fudge. it fails. so do we. so do they.
The greatest gift,often wrapped up in failure is education.
you are an educator. you are a student. you are a friend.you are a child. you are a leader.
You can make a difference.
