On our ride home on the DART I found out that Eastfield College near Dallas has a great teacer program...however I do not recommend going there to become a teacher.

Great Weekend!
I had an awesome weekend! Like I said in my last post it started with a wonderful night at the symphony with my sister Trish. Last night I made it out to the PBR with some friends from church, we had a blast I have some pics of what we saw. Today I topped it off with some down time with my best buds the Wades.

Update yo...
Last time I "blogged" was the day before Trish's birthday...I have been busy okay!!
On Trish's birthday we went out and had a wonderful evening. My parents were in town and we had so much fun together! We went to Dodies, on the Harbor, and then to Fireside Pies for some drinks and desserts.
For Christmas Trish bought me tickets to the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. I went tonight with Trish, Jeremy, and Jeremy's friend Jason. First, we went to the Blue Marlin and had yummy pasta. Then we were headed for a great time and a little adventure. This was the first time any of us had been to a real symphony. We had front row seats, apparently this is not a good thing, we were sooo close the drummer and violinist told us we should sneak into the balcony during the second act, so we did. They were right the sound was much better from up there!
Thanks for the dinner and tickets Trish!! It was great fun! :)
Now it is time to go and get some rest because tomorrow I am gong to the PBR at the American Airline Center! Great fun! :)

Goodbye old year. Happy New Year!!!!
We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives... not looking for flaws, but for potential.
Happy new year to all. Of course I am a little late in posting but what can I tell you it wouldn't be Stacy's world if I were on time.
I had an awesome time with my family over the holidays. I went to Graham and relaxed a while, helped Daddy move out of the old office and into the new. Relaxed some more and had lots of great fun. We decided this year to break from tradition and have steak on Christmas day instead of Turkey. Was it weird, with steak that good there was no room for weird! Anywho Christmas was wonderful!
I was lucky enough to ring in the new year with some new friends. We had an awesome time playing games, watching movies, and eating yummy sweets at my friend Cassie's house. It was great fun.
A few days later I was able to meet up with some of my old college buddies. (look at me sounding all old and stuff) We went to the Cotton Bowl. We arrived in the parking lot at around 9 a.m. The game didn't start until two but that did not mean the festivities had to wait until then! We had a good time catching up and cooking out. Wish I could say our team did a great job and we celebrated a victory, but my Red Raiders lost, and we celebrated other things instead while we waited for the traffic to clear out.
Now I am back in the grove of school, still loving teaching. Right now we are finishing up our first semester. Mid term exams are next week! After that it is on to learning about tolerance, TAKS practice, The Outsiders, Tom Sawyer and much more.
I got a new camera for Christmas and am still trying to figure things out. I have a few picture posted here and the rest are on my picasa. I have some video of that amazing Goin' Band From Raider Land too. Someday I will have time to sit down and figure out how to post video that doesn't take day to load. Until then deal with the pictures!
I hope everybody has started their new year out with a bang. Lets have a fabulous 2009!!

Happy Halloween!
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. " 'Tis some visiter," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door —
Only this, and nothing more."
Okay so here is what has been going on recently. Last week Xander got put back in the hospital, boo, but now he is out, yay!
This week at school we decided to put on a mystery theatre for our students it was great fun. I was Cattie Adams, the Short Stump Saloon owner who had lost her husband four years ago when he went looking for gold and never came back. My students thought I was the murderer, they were wrong!
My dad's election is coming up and we are all ready for that to be over! We all know no matter what happens God is in control.
Today was not so good. Harley was not feeling well. He came up to the school with me so I could keep an eye on him to see if he got better. No luck. So I took him to the vet, he had some kidney stones! They were blocking important things and they had to catheter him. It was very tricky because his bladder was so full and could have busted. Thankfully that didn't happen. He now has to stay at the hospital and be monitored, probably until Monday. Then they will do a little surgery to remove the stones. :( boo
On a happier note, Texas Tech is now 8-0. This weekend we play Texas University. I think we will win. If we don't I will probably be eating crow when I get back to school because the majority of my students are Texas fans!!! Wreck em' Tech!
I decided a couple of nights ago to carve some pumpkins. They are the ones you see in the picture. I especially like the double t. Maybe I am a little partial. I guess that is all for now.
Peace out.
