I feel like a freshmen all over again.

Today I feel like a freshmen myself.  The first day of school....not sure what will happen and who you will meet.  Will anyone like me?  Will I do okay? 

Today I start a new job.  It's totally a blessing, but I am nervous too.  I hope that I can do a good job and connect with my students.  I hope they show up! 

I am nervous, but probably not as nervous as the REAL freshmen I am going to meet!  I think I'm ready....deep breath and here we go!!!!

Uncle Jake

I had a great time today with my brothers and family celebrating my Uncle Jake's life.  It was very surreal being back in the church, though.  The last time I was there we were saying goodbye to my daddy. 

Uncle Jake was full of spunk, humor, and love.  He will be truly missed.

Rest in Peace

Lost my great-aunt Louise today.  She was the older sister of my nanny.  I have a lot of funny memories of Aunt Louise.  She was one of those ladies that said what was on her mind whether you wanted to hear it or not. 

She was 84 years old.
