Spring Semester Update

Beth has inspired me to get back on the blog horse.

So here I am. I started the spring semester of school only being late two days in a row to my first class. No real excuses but plenty of "reasons" why. This spring semester I'm taking MathEd 305 which is basic math concepts. It's um, interesting to say the least. I have just been enlightened that adding is actually referred to in the concepts world as "joining" and that subtraction is "separating." I'm still trying to find out why this class is important but I don't really have much of a choice, since it is required. I am also taking Dance 326, commonly referred to as "Rhythm and Dance." I learned today what a chug was. And that I suck at them. We dance around and then we discuss the benefits of dance. My last class is Drama, TMA 352 which I think I like. This semester we'll be challenging ourselves by making sock puppets and doing character voices. It could be an interesting semester with those classes in tow.

Ryan and I are also renovating our tenant's kitchen this week. It's been a handful of fun to say the least. I did have fun tearing down dry wall though, and hopefully we'll get it finished in a day or two. I just feel bad for our tenants because they don't have a kitchen and they were most likely expecting it to be done when they got back. It will look nice when it's done though. I hope. I have great faith in Ryan's skills. If only putting up the dry wall was more cooperative. Stupid dry wall. And the old farm sink we tore out. The farm sink is my biggest foe. That is all I have to say. I'm just glad it's going to be gone soon.

Enough of my gripes.

Our dog April is not doing so great. The bone cancer has been hard for her and us. We'll probably be saying good bye soon because she can't move very well and she's in pain. I think that it's harder to watch her in pain than it will be to deal with her loss. But on a happier note, we have a puppy, Juneau, that is distantly related to April. He keeps Ryan and I busy and is a silly little guy. We'll have to post some more pictures for everyone to see. And he's only run away once.



I think that's the quick, short version. We'll see how things go.
