i taught today for the first time since june...it was awesome...4th grade, lots of kids that i had taught last year and before, and great to see all of the teachers and others...i am so tired, but it's that exhausted-from-doing-what-you-love type of tired...i am watching big brother 5...i used to bash the reality shows, and now i kinda like some of them, especially amazing race...oh, yeah, ken jennings won again...don't know whether he has lost yet in any of the shows that have been recently taped, but he seems to have a good attitude about it...
now to the depressing reality of life...this evening there was a candlelight memorial for bob mars, the teacher murdered last weekend...two teens (aged 16 and 14- can you believe?) will be charged...all for a gang initiation...unbelievable...i didn't go to the memorial, i was at work until 6:00 and i really didn't know him other than remembering him as a cute guy that went to the same grade school in pasco and stuff...so i will just pray for his family, etc., and the families and friends of the two who killed him, allegedly...and i pray for them, too...god forgives, but how?...how can god love us all so much that he can forgive even these heinous crimes?...beyond all understanding, for sure
m. should be home soon...it will be nice to see him...k. will be going to the football game in vancouver tomorrow with ko. and his family, i will be going to packwood, which is south of mt. rainier, and m. will join us later...very excited for a fun weekend...
more later...
