Okay, so I gave in! Obviously, it doesn't take much to convince me to do something since it only took one of my best friends to convince me I need to create a blog. This is something brand new to me and oddly I find it very exciting. I like trying new things, especially things that let me express myself.
I guess the first thing I should do is talk a little about myself. You'll have to excuse me if I ramble. It's 12:30 at night and I couldn't sleep so I decided I might as well do something useful. I'm dating the most wonderful man in the world, Zac Troxtel. We met at Athens State University. In December of 2008 we will have been dating for five years. I can't wait until the day we make the decision to spend the rest of our lives together. I am so thankful the Lord put Zac in my life. When I think about the reasons I love him so much and why I am so sure I want to be with him forever one thought comes into my mind, "Everything is right when I am with him".
I have two cats, Annabelle and Ollie. Annabelle is the oldest. I adopted her from Petsmart when I first moved into my apartment. She is such a beautiful cat. She loves having me at home, especially during the summer when I am home the most. She follows me around my apartment staring and purring at me. Ollie is the smallest and the youngest. I rescued her from Oliver Feed Mill (where Zac works) when she was just a very tiny kitten. I was very anxious when I brought her home because she and Annabelle did not get along very well at all. It took them some time to get used to each other, but now they are inseperable. Ollie is a very loving cat and one of her favorite things to do is lay in my lap or on top of me when I am sleeping.
I am a middle school English teacher. I love my job as a teacher although many days I find it very frustrating. I feel that being a teacher is more of a calling than a choosing. I'm not sure if that makes sense though. Kids at this age are very impressionable and I feel it's very important as a society that we take the time to teach them morals and such. Today's children are often lacking the parental support they need to be successful in life and I hope that the small role I play in their lives will have a positive influence on them.
I have been blessed with a fantastic family. They have always been there for me and I have no doubt they always will be there. Our family has been through a lot during the last few years. My dad had a heart attack a year and a half ago, I had major back surgery with some icky complications, my grandaddy had open heart surgery, and mama found out she has rheumatoid arthritis on top of reoccurring shingles and the complications that go along with that. I believe these setbacks have shown me how important family is. There are very few constants in life and I firmly believe that family is one of them.
