Wait huh. Why would it be illegal.

And where is this pure quote?

Titus 1:15
To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled.

Trying a dating site tonight, my goal is to at least contact to women every single day. I hope I'm able to do this...

It's pretty pathetic that I don't even have the courage to speak to women in an online setting, lol.

Try eHarmony - it's the best dating site out there. My sister did eHamony for awhile - it does take a bit of time to set up the profile and everything, but I think you get better results than other sites (where people may not have their heart in it).

Ummmm...I can't believe my grade in S...I mean, even my grades in Contracts were never that low. I always did okay in Contracts. Well, must hope that my other grades are better...uggh, I probably failed all my classes, and we're not allowed to challenge our grades either! He said the class wouldn't be curved, but I beat it was.

My post-interview follow up emails have been agonized over, pondered, written, proofread and scheduled to hit my interviewers' inboxes at 9am tomorrow. It's in God's hands now.

True, :prayer:

But, a little good luck don't hurt either, Good luck.

Today I subbed at a school i worked for over a year ago when I got laid off. I hardly ever get calls from there and in many ways I am glad I don't. I had a hard time working there. I couldn't sleep at night, I had nightmares, I had to watch over 120+ kids, share a classroom with an ungrateful mean spirited person, and people who made fun of me and my work even when in reality I was one of the best teachers there. I didn't show the pain at work because my kids deserved my best but at home I was a mess. When I got laid off I felt like they had the knife in my heart but this time twisting it around. But subbing became blessing. There were actually people who told me I was great at what I did and let me be in and change their classrooms.
Anyway, today when I went back the head teacher took me aside and said: "I'm sorry you don't get called much. They don't want smart, organized, professional people." All I could think of telling her was "whatever it is I am meant to do I will. its very sad they are intimidated by me. if they don't like me for those reasons then I will be even better at what I do because that's all ill ever get - better!"

So this is my back story. I'm sort of getting it off my chest. In many ways I am hurting that I can't get work while they have work and act so unkindly. It makes no sense but I guess that's life. I love what I do and those kids mean the world to me but I am still human and still very sensitive and very humbled by what I know and continue to learn. Why is that intimidating? Have others faced such things?

Schools... :/


They don't deserve you. You deserve better. They'll only be circling around in the mud. But the future is bright for you.

I wish I was married to Moses.

Mrs. Moses, that would be great.

Mrs. Moses was an interesting woman. She had to circumcize her son and touch Moses with the bloody prepuce to keep God from killing him. Not a story you often hear preached.

I just noticed somebody's negativity rub off on someone else. It isn't exactly a pleasant thing to witness. We should strive to spread joy instead. I don't mean being fake, but being more mindful about whose thoughts and behaviors we allow to influence our lives.
