Admittedly, my thoughts are a bit overwhelming tonight...too many to give attention to any one and that in itself is stressful. I guess purging them here couldn't hurt....

• Yesterday had been 2 years since losing Andrew...I anticipated the difficulty of the day and tried to stay busy. Few people knew why I was gloomy...but I was still grateful for the support and compassion shown to me. I feel as though after 2 years I should be coping much better but I have regrets...and that is difficult for me to deal with.
• One of my colleagues has become a bit difficult to deal with -- she is dealing with her 'challenges' by pointing out anything and everything that she perceives to be wrong with me. I can't be more specific here but suffice it to say that what she's doing is completely illogical and only makes her more annoying.
• I've just finished reading the book Skinny Bitch -- while informative and entertaining I've found myself trying to do better...after my current 12 pk of Diet Mt Dew I'm going to be giving up soda but the book promotes veganism and there is just NO WAY that's realistic for me.
• The house is a mess.....I work all friggin' day so by the time I get home I want to eat, shower, be lazy and go to bed....so unfortunately I end up HERE instead of cleaning! UGH!

Okay....enough ranting. Tomorrow is the 7th anniversary of 9/11 -- wearing red,white and blue to school and have planned a bit of a lesson around the events surrounding it. It's difficult to believe that some of my students were only 8 that year....

Game tomorrow vs. Warrenton...it's a late one so I FINALLY get to stay after school to get some work done. WHEW! Then Fri., after practice my friend Liz and I are taking our mom's to dinner and to see The Women. We've all been friends for over 20 years so it'll be a fun lil girls' night out!
