Ahhhhhh!

So as it turns out Student Teaching is kicking my trash up one side and down the other! I get to the school at 7:00 every morning and don't leave until 7:00 at night. Sometimes it is even later than that! I am always the last one to leave the school (minus the janitor)!!! To top it off, my mentor just asked me to do even more work. Jeeeeeesh! Needless to say I am beyond stressed out. I just have to remind myself of all the good things I have going for me. Oh and the fact that we only have 6 weeks left helps get me through the days as well :)

True Life

I suck at blogging. True life! I have been so busy lately I can't even think straight. I have started student teaching and I literally spend 8 hours+ writing lesson plans A DAY! I go to school an hour before it starts and I stay until 2 hours after the bell rings. Oh and I work all through my planning hour and my lunch. At about 5ish I go home do a quick work out and then do more lesson plans until about 10 every night. I get so busy I sometimes forget to eat dinner.... It is a lot of work but it will all be worth it someday!

Maybe one of these days I will find a little extra time for myself and I can blog a little more but until then I am afraid this blog might be pretty bare for a while....

Hi. My name is Tiffany. I am 21 years old and I still sleep with a night light!

Whew, that feels good to get that off my chest! But it is true, I do sleep with a night light. However, I can somewhat justify my actions. I only sleep with one when Eric is gone. That is the only time I feel like I can't sleep alone in the dark! When Eric is gone I can't survive the nights without lights. (yes I meant for that to rhyme)! At about 6:00 every night I go through my tiny house and I turn on my living room light, the hallway light, the bathroom light, and the bedroom light. I do NOT want to go into a dark room because there could be a murderer in there!

When it is time for bed I shut the lights off on my way to the bathroom. Quick side note about the bathroom... I HATE it at night. When I am washing my face I usually reach out behind me with my foot just to make sure no one is standing right behind me. I also can't shower at night anymore because I have convinced myself that when I finish showering a killer will hand me my towel. I was so convinced about this one time that I showered with a butcher knife. No Joke!

Okay back to the night light. As soon as I am finished in the bathroom I turn off the light and quickly dash around the corner into my bedroom. I always make sure to look back down the hall before I close the door just to make sure no one has snuck in while I was washing my face! Then I shut the door and plug in my night light. After I turn off the light I make a flying leap from my door to my bed so that nothing underneath my bed can reach out and grab my leg! I then get under the blankets and reach over onto my nightstand to make sure I know exactly where Eric's pistol is and where my HUGE butcher knife is!

The reason I sleep with a night light is so I can see my attacker that I am sure will get me one of these nights! I want to be able to see them so I can put up a fight! I would rather be able to see someone in my bedroom then have them sneak up on me without warning. It is a good thing I have a gun and knife right next to me becuase if someone does break in, they may get the best of me in the end but I will put up one hell of a fight first!

Okay so that is the reason I sleep with a night light. Yes, I know I am a little old for a night light but frankly I don't care! I LOVE my night light! So until I post again, I hope everyone (even though I am pretty sure no one reads this blog anymore) will consider sleeping with a night light :)

P.S. I have a funny story I plan to blog about soon...Just as soon as I stop being lazy and I upload some pictures!

Boys Suck!

It is official. Boys suck!!!!! I have been running for the past couple months. I am not fast and I cannot run that far but I am trying. Eric has not worked out in who knows how long. Well today after he got off of work he asked me if I wanted to go for a run. After I picked my jaw up off the ground I said sure. So we got in the truck and headed for a running trail. I was feeling pretty confident because I thought I would be able to keep up with him no problem because I had been running and he hadn't. I was dead WRONG.

I'm not sure how far we went but it felt like a long ways!!! Eric hardly even broke a sweat. He was practically running circles around me. When we first started out I kept up with him pretty well. The farther we ran however the farther behind I got. He would even have to run in place and wait for me sometimes. I felt so pathetic!!!

That is all.

I Really Should Be Working On A Final Right Now....

I have been taking an online class all SUMMER and it is not fun at all. I am at my final week for the class and I have two papers I need to write. I have seriously been considering not even writing them because if I didn't I would still get an 84% in the class. Unfortunately I am the biggest nerd in the entire world and I can't handle the thought of getting a B. I have started one paper and I should probably still be working on that at the moment instead of blogging. Oh well!
On Thursday Eric and I went up to Star Valley. We stayed with my Grandma and Grandpa Izatt on Thursday night and we had a blast. Then on Friday we went up to Afton and we got to see my cousin! He was serving a mission in Jamaica for two years and it was so fun to see him. I love how awkward missionaries are when they first come home! Then on Saturday my cousin had her son's baby blessing and it was beautiful. Lane did such a good job!!! After the blessing we ate milk can dinner and it was D-LISH-US! Then on Sunday we went to Sacrament meeting and listened to Whitey give his mission report. He did a good job. He was such a good missionary. He has some pretty interesting stories too!!!!

While we were in Afton we stayed with my Grandpa Lamb and Grandma Kathy. My Grandpa was so excited to show Eric and I where we were sleeping. It turned out he set up his cot tent for us. It is basically a cot with a little cover over it. It was actually pretty neat! The first night Eric and I slept there the front of it collapsed so our heads shot towards the ground and our feet were pointing towards the sky! It was hilarious. We seriously thought my Grandpa set it up like that on purpose. He claims he didn't but I am not sure if I believe him or not. He is quite the prankster. Then the next night we slept there it started raining and at 3:30 in the morning we had to go into the house because we were getting wet. It was an experience that's for sure!

Needless to say we had a great weekend. I am glad that Eric got to know my grandparents a little better!!!!
