Where is My Motivation?

I have officially lost all motivation for today. Instead of working on the pile of homework sitting on our coffee table I decided to focus on my very important blog. :) Winter semester is underway and I already feel like I need to catch-up. I am in my first cohort and will begin my first practicum in March. I cannot wait! I get so excited when I think about guided reading groups, classroom set-up, standardized tests, etc. To all of those who think Elementary Education is an "easy" major I say this, "You better take that back." I will probably never forgive your naivete either. Just kidding. But seriously, being a teacher is hard work! However, it definitely has its rewards.

In other news, BYU Men's basketball just won their game against San Diego State University. The score? 71-69....a nail-biter! Sure hope their winning streak continues!

Jake and I are so very fortunate (complete sarcasm) to have church every week at 8:00 am. Not even kidding. Yes, that is ten hours from now. Sacrament meeting is first and everyone arrives sporting puffy, blood-shot eyes. OK, only Jake and I have puffy, blood-shot eyes but everyone looks dead tired. Most of the kids in our ward show up to church in their pajamas. Does anyone else think 8:00am is too early for church? So while all of you are sleeping....Jake and I will be at church rubbing our eyes, desperately trying to stay awake.

Well at least we get to take a nap... for the rest of the day :) I like to think that jammies keeps Ryan warmer as we walk to church (lol)

I think maybe I'd show up in my pajamas if we had church that early!

Once we had an 8:30 schedule but I was younger then and had more energy.

Hang in there. AT least it's better than your 2:00 schedule last year???!!!

Ohh, 8 am is early. One year at BYU, Ray and I had a ward that started at 3 thirty...it was awful getting out in the dark...but 8 is pretty bad. You could go to sleep in you PJs and then you'd be all dressed when you wake up! hahah
