My sweet valentine

Greg is so sweet. He brought home a bag of peanut M&Ms for my Valentine's present; he knows they are my favorite. Then he wrote me the sweetest letter. I love you Greggy poo.

Day 32

Today, I am glad for a day at home to get somethings done that needed doing. The milk leaked in the refrigerator last night, so I had to empty out a few shelves and clean. I decided to clean the whole thing. I took out all the shelves and cleaned and emptied all kinds of stuff. Before that I fried some bacon to put in breakfast burritos for the freezer and made a big pot of beans to eat with mexican food within the next few days. I have done quite a bit of laundry and a little goofing off, too. It has been a great day and it is only 1:16.

Day 31

Yesterday, I received these beautiful roses from my

dad for Valentine's Day. The white one smelled so good. I am very thankful that my father started the tradition of getting the girls in his life gifts many years ago. I love you, Dad, thank you.

Day 30

Today, I am grateful I was born in 1959 and grew up during the decades of the past. I look at my students and all they have to deal with and wouldn't want to be a teenager in the 21st century. I know people who are older than me probably thought the same thing about my generation. There seems to be very little shame, moral purity, honor or respect amoung this generation. The Lord, Jesus is the only hope and I hope I can show his love to these lost, wandering kids.

Day 29

Today, I am grateful for heat. When I was in the car earlier the thermometer said it was 20 degrees. Us east texans are not use to such cold temperatures. I put a light on my chickens last night and they were still alive this morning. I put wood shavings in Chisum's doghouse and this morning he came climbing out, so he survived, too. It is supposed to stay cold for several days. We are okay as long as the electricity doesn't go off.
