Wii Afternoon at school


Wii Afternoon at school
Originally uploaded by carignan.

Wii bowling in my classroom during a "Flex Day" afternoon of fun. Quiznos for lunch, then playing Wii Sports the rest of the afternoon until quitting time. I do think we all needed to play the afternoon away. Too much has been happening at work and it hasn't been all good. The downside to playing Wii Sports is that I was beaten badly by everyone. The good note for the week is that my students are fantastic.

Yesterdays donation! It started off way wrong. The nurse stuck me in a new spot. It was on the side of the arm and the needle kept rolling in the vein. It took three nurses twenty minutes to get the needle placed properly and sucking my blood. On a good note, I gave a double yield of platelets and a single yield of plasma. All right a triple donation! I really need to be more consistant with my donations. I'd like to hit twenty gallons as quickly as possible. I was very tired afterwards and went right to sleep when I arrived home.

Hanging out with Izzy.

What do I want?

I really want to be a better man. It's something I think about alot. So much of what I do is aimed at improving myself. I am fairly happy with myself, but I have some character flaws that I need to work on. Does anyone have any ideas about what I might do?

Just a thought

"Happiness is inward, and not outward; and so, it does not depend on what we have, but on what we are."

Henry Van Dyke (1852-1933)

Follow me. I've been using Twitter for awhile and hopefully mentioned it before, it sucks to forget. You can see what I am doing with quick posts from wherever I am.

Eating lunch with Izzy

It's amazing how much she's changed since we got her. She's feeding herself, running, climbing, opening doors and understands alot of what we tell her. She can use a spoon, fork and drinks out of a cup. It's amazing to me that she is growing so quickly. I guess, I understand what it is to be a parent. I'm proud of my little girl.
