Paul's Infrequently Updated Blog

I think the title of this post says it all really. I do not have much to say right now. However, I did want to make at least one post this month to make sure I keep my blog going.

Anyway, it is the end of the Marking Period at school so, for part of next week, there will be no grading. Of course, the week after is Thanksgiving and I am already giving thanks that I get three days off. We then have four stright weeks of school but I am planning on taking at least one day off during that time and I expect at least one Snow Day. I guess Christmas will soon be here.

It is Sunday night and I have decided not to go to school tomorrow. I have not been feeling well since Saturday night and I am still not feeling well today. I have been getting really bad headaches and I have not been sleeping well for the last week or so. Taking the day off all also have other benefits. The first one is that last week was a four day week. By taking tomorrow off, this week will be a four day week and then the week after that has a teacher workday on the 27th so no students.

Another benefit is that I have some shit at work that I don’t want to deal with and it will actually be better if I leave it ’til Tuesday. Also, my lesson plans will work better if I take tomorrow off. At the end of the day though, I really don’t feel that well. I am even thinking of going to see the doctor. For anyone that knows me you will known that I REALLY must be not feeling well to consider visiting the doctor.

Also, today our neighbours that live a few doors down are moving out. I suspect they got sick of paying the $1000+ month in rent and the poor condition of the townhouses. The price they charge for these places really is not worth it. Plus there is poor maintenance. It took them two months to fix the hole in our ceiling and, even after all that, it still leaks. It has gotten to the point that I simply do not care anymore. What with the job and living here I am very much considering saying to hell with it and moving back to Nebraska after this school year. Come to think of it maybe it is all this crap that is making my head hurt……..

Okay, I am back. Have not posted for a while because I could not ever find the password. Anyway, some good news. I called my parents today and they told me that my friend Alex sent them some mail. This was good because I have been trying to find him for almost two years. This afternoon I was able to call him and catch up on old times. It was pretty cool.

Another good think today was seeing the deer in the woods at the back of our house and the snake on our front door step. It was nothing dangerous just a Garter Snake but still pretty cool.

This is my first blog. I am not to sure about what I am going to talk about but I am sure I can think of something.
