• june….

  ahhhhh… it is June and I have ten weeks before I begin teaching again.  I have work to do for the new text books and changes in curriculum as well as several workshops. I know the summer will go very very fast. I have reading and writing to do as well AND the garden. Tomatoes and peppers are in, potatoes are up and the rhubarb is looking good enough to become a pie this week. 
  It was a tough school year.  I am so saddened by the students that have no morals, no values, no ethics let alone no understanding of their spiritual needs.  They think only of themselves and use people like they are of no value.  I do have hope for next year’s senior class, but I shall wait and see.  This year I learned that for the most part the parents of my students take no responsibility for their child, that the child is basically on their own and does what they please.  It is sad to see.  I do know that I am sometimes the first person that actually holds students accountable for their actions.
  I got a treadmill this year too…. and I love it!!!!!  My plan is to use it everyday.  I have been surprised the speed I can get on it and how far I can walk on it.  I get more steps in than I did when walking outside. Got it from a friend at church that was having a big sale, it is a Proform 760.  Love it! Emmie uses it too.
  more later… I need to get outside and work some more. blessings dear ones!!
