It is amazing what you go through in 10 years. All the things that have happened to me and in the world while I have been lucky enough to be"owned" by my puppy, Nikki, is amazing!

World:

911

Sniper

Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama

Recession? No recession?

many other things that I am blanking on.......

My Life:

Pam, Rodney and even Brian (good riddance)

losing Ashleigh and Callie

Meeting and making life long friends, Alison (Nikki met her during this time), Heidi, Christie and many other fabulous people

Nikki is still with me but I know it won't be for long. Going through memories right now is painful but also wonderful. She has been my very best friend for 10 years now. About nine years ago, Brian made some comment about me "marrying" my dog....he was right....this relationship has been one of the best relationships I've known! She is my heart, soul and joy!

Year 16

So I realized this summer that I have been teaching only 1/2 the amount of time my sister has!

The summer is just about over and I am just now starting to think about the upcoming school year! I'm hoping to have some adventures this year, both in the classroom and out of the classroom!

Okay, so doing two blogs isn't easy, doing one blog isn't easy either!

A Blog, here, a blog there...too many blogs!

Okay, so I have a blog on our Angel page and I've started, I think, a blog on Edublog. I don't know that I have all that much to talk about!
