I am writing all of my posts on my iPad lately.  I've decided that I miss my keyboard and my computer. Anyways, sorry for the zillion typos.  I'm not skilled enough with my iPad to fix them, and I wish I could.

Today was a good day.  I got a new student!  She's a sweet, smart, and well behaved little thing...so far. I think she's going to be a great addition to our classroom and I'm kidding when I say SO FAR. I think she's going to be great.  I had such a good day.  There are so many stressful things happening in my life, in everyone's life basically,  but mine don't seem to matter lately.  I'm just REALLY happy and I just feel incredibly blessed. I wonder if this is how people feel after being spared from a near fatal accident.  Do they see life differently?  Do they appreciate their life more? I guess that's how I'm feeling...the rush of a second chance on life.  I feel pretty awesome! 

Tonight I was contemplating doing something very hard and self doubt crept into my mind making me feel like I couldn't do it.  During my pity party a better thought came to mind, "If you're able to go through chemo and survive cancer, then you can do anything!". It seems dumb when I see the words in print, but the feeling was there telling me I could handle the hard things.  So....that's what I wanted to share.  I can do the things that are hard for me.  I just have to keep "swimming" as Dori on Finding Nemo would say and not give up.  So hooray for me and my tiny little victory.
