I have to keep reminding myself to find the good in all people. I really do. It's so easy to go to the dark side and just start saying negative things. I feel like Darth Vadar sometimes lately. I know I need to be good, but then the evil Jedi mind tricks take over, and I have to fight the urge to stand there and say, "What the hell is wrong with you?" I guess it's a good thing that I'm not Luke's father.....else I'd be trying to knock off my own son to spite myself. This is, by FAR, the hardest resolution I've ever had. I think I'd rather resolve to lose 200lbs instead of resolving to be a kinder, more sympathic version of myself. This is hard shit!!!!
My friend, Gina, brought me a present this morning. Remember how I was having such difficulties in finding a happy temperature for my classroom? Well, it's been resolved, but my friend, Gina brought me a giant thermometer for my classroom. LOL It was funny. I have it right up on my 1923 chipping chalkboard.
So, lately I've been thinking that I want to get an exchange student. Ever since high school, I've ALWAYS wanted to have one for a year. One of my best friends my senior year was Lin, an exchange student from Sweden. She and I still have contact with each other. I even told JB before he and I got married that someday, I WAS going to get one. I'd like to get one from either Sweden, Germany, or Denmark. I don't know why I've been thinking about it so much lately. I have always told JB that I wouldn't get one until the kids were in high school...but for some reason I want one NOW! It's been going through my head more and more lately. Of course, I know that it won't happen. Not only do we not have the room, but I promised JB that I wouldn't even look into it before the kids were in high school. DANG! Why do I have to be so damn obediant?!?!?!?!
