Prima Ballerina
Tomorrow I go back to work, and I am very happy about it. The kids won’t be there until Tuesday, so tomorrow will be a good day to get everything ready for them to return. We will have a new student, a little girl with Rett’s, not to be confused with Tourettes. I’m excited about having her come in, but I hope I don’t completely focus on her. I’m sure it will be fine. She will be in our class next year too, so she is one of the few kids I’ll get to keep until December. I know God has big plans for these kids.
So lately my life has been pretty interesting. I went on a blind date on Tuesday, and a second date on Friday with a guy named Eric. Going through the whole “go out with someone you’ve never met” thing was really interesting, and pretty fun. I highly recommend it. I didn’t think I’d be as nervous as I was, but it was definitely a good experience. Oh, and if anyone gets an opportunity to listen to Marshall Chapman in concert, please, please don’t pass it up. She’s incredible.
Jennifer got engaged over the weekend, which was wonderful. She and BJ have been together smiling, laughing, and cuddling every since. He did a good job of surprising her. Congratulations, you crazy kids
About … two months ago maybe, while a few of us were practicing softball my foot was smashed with one of Craig’s long fly balls. I was in right field, couldn’t see the ball, and it hit my foot. I remember immediately thinking I broke it, but praying very quickly that I wouldn’t have to have crutches, because I knew I would have to run around with the kids two days later, and there is no time for broken feet at the lighthouse. My foot made a miraculous recovery, and I felt no pain the next day. It was pretty incredible. I’ve been noticing lately though, that there are times when it hurts a lot, like when I go up on my tip-toes or sit with my feet crossed. Is it ridiculous to go get an x-ray two months after an injury? I guess it doesn’t keep me from doing anything too important, but what if I wanted to take up ballet?
Well, time to prepare for a great week at work.
