~ It's 5 O'clock Somewhere~

Went to Jimmy Buffert Parking Lot party Saturday.. With my sister Lisa and her Hubby Rod..My last party before the SCT.. I did pretty good, I got a little tired but we walked ALOT!! I have a pretty good tan going on right now:) maybe it will last a couple of weeks:) This was my 3rd Jimmy Buffett Party, it was Alex's 1st and he is already making plans for next year..

Sunday I spent the day helping Alex clean & mow some houses, I just enjoy spending time with him, doesn't really matter what we are doing. I have been feeling pretty good.

Monday "Today"our TAKS scores came in :) we made the % we needed to so I feel great!! My student's did really well and I am so proud of them. That STRESS is Gone :)  My own son Lucas got commened on his Math & Reading TAKS, he is such a smartie!!

 I sent off for some Amyloidosis wristbands and Pins from the Amyloidosis Awearness site and two of my students went around and collected donations for them and in about 30 minutes they ran out of stuff and had about $180 :) So I emailed the people and asked for more they said they would overnight me some more. I think that is great people want to donate money and support Amyloidosis Awearness. I will be the first to admit I had never even heard the word AMYLOIDOSIS before I was diagnosed with it.

 After school one of my students Grandparents~~ that I met at the beginning of the year~~~ came into my class and asked me if I was the substitute?? I said, "no?" she said, "well I need to talk to Mrs Reed"... I said, "I am Mrs Reed" she said, "No the other Mrs Reed, the sick one." I said, "Thats me:)" she said, " but you look so different, your hair.... you just look so much younger!" I said, "well Thank you .. I feel alot better, I have been through alot of chemo".. (I was thinking, you should see me in a couple of weeks, I might not look so great) She told me they pray every night and her Granddaughter always says, "please take care of Mrs Reed and bring her back to us." :) awwww I love my kiddo's
