How will you spend your DASH?

‎'On your tombstone there will be two dates, the date you were born and the date you died. That little, insignificant line between those two dates - that DASH - is your life!' Are you making the most of your DASH?

The Dash Movie | Simple Truths

The Dash, the inspirational poem by Linda Ellis - captures not the date you were born, or the date you die—but the importance of The Dash between those years. It's what you do with your Dash to make a difference with your life.

 

This was one of my homework assignments and it really got me thinking. Right now my life is packed full of different things, family, work, school, homework....at this moment I feel I am making the most out of my DASH. I am taking small steps to complete my large goal and hopefully impacting lives along the way. I hope that when I am gone there are good things to be remembered. What about you?

 

This is just food for thought!! Hope everyone is having a great day!!

Homework, Homework, Homework......

As many of you know it is very hard to work and attend school. This is my first sememster ever to take on 18 credit hours (which is all that is allowed for any student). I am having to double up on classes to be able to get in to the Special Education program at Murray State University this fall. This is the first week of class and I already feel the pressure. I can totally sympathize with the kid below!! I am taking 4 online classes, a night class, and one afternoon class two afternnons a week. I am thankful that my boss if flexiable and lets me go when I need to.

Class Schedule:
* Basic Public Speaking - Monday Night
* Teaching in the Middle School Grades - Tuesday/Thrusday afternoon
* Intro to American Education - Online
* Human Development and Learning - Online
* Contemporary College Math - Online
* Human Relations - Online

This is me every day during homework: :o)

Another Milestone Complete!!!!

Yesterday I left work early to go to a retirement party!! Carroll has been the County Clerk for Livingston County from 2003-2010. He has made great friendships and met lots of great people in that small town! He will be missed by all of his co-workers!!
Chris' grandpa, Carroll Walker, had reached what he thought was his last day of work....He infomed me that at about 10:00 that morning they asked him if he could come in to work today for a little while ;-) Here are some pictures from the great milestone!!

Christmas with the Boatwrights!! (My family)

On Christmas day every year, Chris and I wake up SUPER early!! We have our own little Christmas and exchange gifts followed by being at his mom's house by 7:30 (This year we set an exact time of 7:16, hehe Kelly) and then rush home to get ready and be at my Aunt Coco and Uncle Mike's by 9:30 for brunch, then are back across town by 12:00 to have lunch at, usually Phyllis' house (Kelly's mom), But this year at Chris' Uncle Phillip's house. Followed by a full day of food, family, and games. I did not bring my camera out at Phillips or Phyllis' this year for some strange reason so I will have to make sure and get pictures from other family memebers.I was too busy enjoying everyone that I just wasn't thinking. Here are a few pictures from my family gathering!!
