Happy Holidays!

I know, I know it's been a while! It always gets so busy in Nov...Dec. that I don't take the time to sit down and really write anything.

Last week we had "Resiliency Training"...which was a code phrase for let's get some random people on our staff some therapy!! NOT kidding. Some of us were 'chosen' to attend the 'training' but all it was was a therapy session with a woman who was trying to play at being a psychic!! All I can say is, it was weird and she picked on people. I stopped making eye contact and quit participating. It was uncomfortable and sad to listen to another teacher who has been at Burnet for like 20 years talk about how it would hurt her if they close that school and she sat there and made this person say back to her, "It will not hurt me." Over and over!

Her psychic vision for me was that I'm supposed to get my Doctorate. After I had introduced myself and basically only said that I wasn't from here, was from north TX, we were affected by the hurricane because Warren and I were split up and not living in the same place, had to move, yadda yadda...she says so when are you going back to school? I said I already have my Masters. So then she says, no you are supposed to get your Doctorate, it's supposed to be Dr. and Dr. I'm like, I don't think so! I'm not going back to school for that...then it was why not...and she kept coming back to it...

Anyway, she picked on me about it, I didn't like it or her and it made me mad and I have to stop typing about it now because it's making me mad again! Who does she think she is? She doesn't know me!! I've already been through my own "resiliency training" it's called LIFE!!! GRRRR!!

List-o-rama:

1. Warren gets to do Internal Med. in Galveston starting in January!! His two classes after that are schedule for Dallas for now, but his director says it's a possibility that they could open up down here in the area.

2. Grace and Pete have settled into the apt. Grace has the routine down now and Pete is working on it. He had a hard time with it being new territory but he likes the windows and he likes trying to open ANY door or cabinet! I may have to get childproof locks for the cat! ha

3. Keep Aunt Lisa in your thoughts please, her surgery is scheduled for this Thursday. She is having her heart valve replaced.

4. I'm sooo glad I have only 2 days of school left! (I took off to come up for the surgery so I could be there).

5. I dislike unpacking. Who knew I had so much kitchen stuff! I am repacking some things to just store away in the extra closet. Tonight I'm going to try to tackle our closet and get everything hung up.

And...I think that's it for now. School is out :)
