One Day More

I love my job. I really do! It's so rewarding to see students you've worked closely with learn a new concept or improve a low grade. I love sharing their excitement when their hard work has paid off. I can't help laughing at some of their crazy antics. I love my job, but this week has been absolute anarchy at the Junior High!

Anticipation for the upcoming break is mounting and the students are on the verge of rebellion. A formal declaration of independence has yet to be drafted, but I can't help feeling that one is forthcoming. Control of the student body is shaky.

Littering. Running in the hall. Laziness. General resistance to authority.

Complaints among students are common.

Homework! Teachers! Inequality! THIS IS STUPID!

I understand their sentiment. I do. After all, last year at this time I was a student myself. Fortunately or unfortunately, I now find myself on the other side of the power struggle. All I can say is, "Thank Goodness there is only one day more!"

One day more of futile prodding. One day more till I'll sleep in. One day more till we earn freedom. One day more till Christmas Break!

DATE NIGHT MIX-UP

This weekend, Jeff and I planned on going to a barbecue with some of Jeff's friends from high school. We made the hour long drive to West Jordan, but when we got to Jake's house no one was there. After a few phone calls, Jeff found out that the barbecue isn't until NEXT weekend! It was a BYOB (Bring Your Own Beef) event, so we had a steak marinating in the back seat along with a huge salad to share. The only thing to do was head to Walmart for some charcoal and a lighter. Apparently, having grills in public parks is now considered too big a liability because it took us FOREVER to find one. Once we did find a grill, we found that some wasps had made a home in there. Jeff set it on fire before cooking our steak. After dinner, we went to a Drive-in movie and it ended up being a really great date!

Rock Creek ~ Upper Stillwater Dam

Not much snow yet...we were able to make it all the way

to the top that day. Only a week later the dam was

snowed in until late April.
