Feb. is done


Kaileigh Saling she was so cute today!

Kamden Saling-- so funny! He kept trying to play with the dog and she somewhat ignored him...


Kinsee Saling-- Loves her jammies!




These are pictures from today. Rachel and family got to come down and see us... and eat a yummy dinner by Dad. The weather has been so nice!!!

School is okay. I have a new teacher. She is not as organized as my last one.. and her teaching methods are not the same. So-- it is quite frustrating for me. I feel like I haven't learned a lot the past 2 weeks. When students fail the final they can retake the test. Well there was a guy retaking the test and he was totally cheating. So I started saying something about it and the other students were getting mad at me! One girl told me "snitches wind up in ditches"... I was pretty mad. I hate that people cheat!!! Another guy was all "cheating helps you learn you remember the questions that way! (like studying doesn't do that?) He also was telling me that I should not care-- let the other guy fail the BIG test. I told him this was a BIG test. But he meant the licensing exam we will take when we are done. I said no-- let him fail now and he can retake the classes for free!!! (The BIG test is $200 and the school will pay for your first attempt)
It really makes me crazy!!! I have tried to keep quiet in class, but this is just nuts. I think because 90% of them are getting the schooling for free they don't care. They know they can take the classes over until they pass. I would say 3:5 of the students will have to retake classes and not finish in the set amount of time. It is just sad to me! I want out and want to start my new career. But then... some of them think I am crazy because I already have a degree.... ah well. Keeps school somewhat entertaining!

Work has been good. This week I was not feeling too hot so my boss let me go home early and the next day he assumed I was still feeling sick so he told me to go home early! NICE... but then I had a long day on Friday and worked Sat. as well...

There is a Single Adult Conference this weekend. I think I will meet up with my friend, Heather, and go to parts of it. She and I will go to the BYU vs. TCU game on Sat. night! Should be fun. Something little to look forward to.

This week I went to a Single Adult meeting at the Stake Center (The stake RSP couldn't make it so I was asked to take her place)... I hope I never have to go to another one!!! I was getting so mad! One sister was "joking" about how once you turn 30 life is mostly over and you won't get married anyway.... (wow... 32 I should just give up right?!) Then she talked about how she wanted "new people" to come to the activities... hmmnn.... then the group decided the Bishops needed to ask the singles in their ward and ASSIGN them to go to this activity that was being planned. ASSIGNED!!!! I got pretty upset. I told the High Counselor's wife that I was sitting by (her husband was in charge that night) that the Bishop could ask me to take some food to it, but not assign me to go!! Maybe I have the wrong attitude about that.. but really assign us to an activity? -- It is over Memorial Day weekend. I must need to go see Grandma and Grandpa that weekend.

Well those are the crazy stories I could think of for this past while. We shall see what March brings. ( in like a lion out like a lamb?)
