Almost easter!

So life has been going on normally around here... Pregnancy's been going great, life is good and I feel tired. Won't have an eater break this year because we have so much to do both in school and at home. Besides I'll be helping out my brother who's organizing a music course.

Anyway we will all survive :)!

Have a nice easter, everyone...

Exam

I have an exam tommorrow on catholic studies. I have spent most of the week trying to study and discovered that I really suck.

I tell my students that they have to study daily and wht do I do? I am a wonderful preacher and a terrible doer. One week prior I try to study 4 months of work - Does it have any results? Doubt it. So I have leant and next exam will try to me more of a doer... (writing this while knocking head on desk)...

Yet I have learnt a lot and thoug I am terrible wioth names and dates ( which tend to be important) I am quick at grasping concepts. Let's see how this works tomorrow.

Have a nice weekend!

I hope Everyone is OK

AS I must be one of the less organized xangans, I come here seldom and write even seldom. Let's just recap my life lately.

I am 20 weeks pregnant and it is a boy. His name is Nicolau (Nicholas) which was my husband's grandparent's name. We have been having midterm exams so I have been spending lots of time in school preparing students, having orals and organizing next semester that starts this week.

Ds is doing fine - as I haven't been working evenings (which will start this week), we have been spending more time together and I think it has been making a difference for th both of us. I am dreading starting to work work evenings again... Three days a week (tuesday, wednesday and thursday) I only get home at 8 pm and it is coming home, having dinner (which I leave made or almost) and putting him to bed... :(.

Dh is ok but really tired. We are moving to a new home in the summer, after baby is born and he is been working hard to paint and prepare it for us. I am a lucky wife.

Hope everyone is doing fine!

Have a thoughtful lent!

Proverbs 31

Trying to get there and learning that maybe my worst sin is not lazyness but pride... Not pride in whaqt ido (as if I were best at something :)) but hurting my pride as I watch myself fail on every try.

Most difficult task but the one I like the most listening to my DH. I'm so used to boss around (it's a personality genetic that comes from a long line of matriarchs in the family trait) that I find it difficult to listen to him and understand his point of view - it is like I have a whole door in front of my eyes that doesn't allow me to see but that I don't want to open... Thank G_D dh understands and is trying to help me out.

Any ideas?
