I know I haven't updated my blog in FOREVER, but I figured it's a new year why not try again? Unfortunately my purpose for blogging has changed. We were unable to keep our little Dukie Bear due to his high separation anxiety and constant barking when we were not home. We tried everything that we could to help our little guy but in the end nothing worked out. We gave Dukie back to BBR and I'm glad to say that he's found a new home. Hopefully he is happy where he is. We miss him very much.
This semester I'm going to be student teaching. Yay! A 5th grade urban placement and an 8th grade suburban placement. I am psyched. I met with my teacher again today and I am very excited to start working with her. She seems extremely positive and I think I will be able to learn a lot from her. Next Tuesday I will be going in to see how their days run and help out with the students, which I can't wait to do! My official start date will be January 23rd. It almost can't get here fast enough.
Along with student teaching this semester I am also continuing my classes. 1 last class will get me through my program, so that will be wonderful. I'm a little leery about the work load, but what can you do? I guess I will just have to get crazy organized! (Can anyone help with that?!)
Since it is a New Year I am also going to start my weight loss journey (again). I'm hoping having a blog will keep me a little more accountable and also that my upcoming wedding will help motivate me to lose the weight I intend to get rid of and keep off! Go me! As of this morning I weigh....171 lbs. It made me really sad to see this, as I haven't been this size for at least 6 years now. But I know I just need to get to work, eat better, and start exercising and I can work it off!
This weekend we are going to Las Vegas for a short vacation. Yay! I'll have to attempt to be somewhat good out there. I'm definitely looking forward to getting out of this cold weather for a while. That is for sure. I'll update about vacation when I get back and hopefully I will have some fun pictures to go along with it.
