Working Out

As I have found that I have put some weight on as I was not running around like I was when I was travelling.. I brought a Wii and love it. I first saw it at a friend's in Oz and was addicted to it...


"Push up"

School

Since September of 2009, I have retaken back my house which I was very fortune to rent and have no major problems. During this time, I have removed back into my house, got my dog back and tried to get some order in my house. What a job!! It is March break and my house is still in a bit of a mess. The summer is looking like a good time to get things organized and do the normal house maintains that is needed.
I had a fantastic time during my travels and met some amazing people.
Now I have been back to teaching for almost seven months and cannot believe it. The first four months were difficult to readjusted to a schedule and a routine. Also, during this time I changed schools as well as grades. I am in a very nice school, teaching grade four. It is great.
