Ugh- the rain!

I know we need rain in our neck of the woods, but does it really have to come with a cold front that dropped our temperatures from a lovely range of 70-85 to this crap where it's currently 41?!? I mean, seriously-- it's the week before spring break, and my mind wants (needs) SUN!

One of the great things about being a teacher is having Spring Break off with the students. While I don't have anything major planned, I will certainly enjoy the rest. Plans include: judging a speech contest tomorrow and Sunday, finish painting the nursery (Mark's job) and taxes on Monday and taking momma to the casino nearby on Tuesday. I've got a friend coming to visit the Sunday towards the end of Spring Break, and she's going to help me hang pictures and decorate around the house-- I'm tired of living out of boxes. Other than that, I plan to clean, rest and take care of me.

In the name department, we're still looking for names. I never thought it would be so difficult to name a child, but when you start thinking of all the possible nicknames, teasing, etc., it can be a bit daunting. We've got it narrowed down to a few, so I'm hoping we can make a decision soon.

You know how the weather in Texas is - no surprise! I'm enjoying the last of the yuckiness as an excuse to be a sloth this weekend. The week ahead will be great for us spring breakers!

And - fwiw - you can use Kristin if you like. It's a beautiful name I think. :) Just sayin . . .
