First off, thanks y'all for the comments, it really does make me feel better. And btw I was totally kidding about beating up the husband, he is, after all, much bigger than me, and I really DO love him. He, like most husbands, just really pisses me off sometimes.
Well yesterday I subed fourth grade. For me it is probably the easiest grade to sub. It also reconfirmed that I do not want to do this full time. No doubt I would bring it home with me. I ended up talking to this one little boy whom apparently has kind of a rough home life. I hope I said the right things to him. I hope I at least made that day a little better for him. I was so sad for him, he said his step dad tells him he is trash, this on top of getting picked on at school by a handful of children. And I know there are many other kids at the school going through similar things. As a sub it's not like I am going to make some big change in their lives, so I just gave him the best advice I could think of and hope it helped a little. He seems to be a good kid, no worse than any other little boy his age, and I'd hate to see the issues he has to deal with change that. Like I told him, childhood is just a small part of the rest of your life. Try not to let others opinions of you matter much and just be the best person you can be. And that over time, treating others the way you want to be treated really does work.
On a lighter note....last Saturday night I went to my neighbors for a jewelry party. My cousin sells Premier Design jewelry. It's a little pricey, but also worth it. When my order comes in I will try to post pictures. Lisa, maybe I can plan a jewelry party for when you are here, what do ya think? Just let me know.
Well y'all, that's all for now. It's time for me to get started on my bajillion loads of laundry, lol. And yes that is a word, in my world anyway, so shut-up spell check.

Yeah, I am so glad to see you are back to writing a little more often - I missed you! I can't wait to come visit and if you want to do a party then that is up to you - we can talk more about that closer to the time. Love ya!! xo
I'm super excited to see another post from you so soon! YEA!!
That's terrible about that little boy. Why in the world would someone tell their child they are "trash" WTF? That pisses me off! His Dad's probably a friggin' loser anyway. He must be to pick on a little boy. I am always watching the news though and saying, "What the hell is wrong with people??" ((shakes head)) And people wonder why our societies children have "issues". I'm glad that you tried talking to him. I couldn't be a teacher. I would want to bring those children home with me. How sad...I hope what you said to him made sense to him.
Bajillion's a work in my world, too. And ***yes*** please be posting pics of that jewelry!!
