Monday memo.

Happy cold, rainy Monday to you!

I don't know about you, but I'm glad to see the arrival of March and will be even happier to see spring make its grand entrance to 2010! The 60-something degree weather last weeekend was beautiful, but did it last? Nope. Oh well...it is March, so it's GOT to warm up soon right?

We'll see.

Kristen and I spent this past weekend in Gulfport helping our little sister get the nursery finished, baby clothes clean, hung, and sorted by size (yep...we're that nice!), house clean, etc. It was great sister time, and it made me even more excited about the arrival of Jones in less than 2 months! I would post pictures of the adorable nursery, but I want to let Heather post about it instead. Take my word for it though...it's perfect. I can't wait to be an aunt again!

Now...on to a P90X update!

One word--PAINFUL...

I started it last Wednesday, and found myself getting so frustrated, I almost quit the program before I even started. It was SO HARD! I woke up the next morning (and the next, and the next...) in so.much.pain. I knew I'd be going out of town the following day for a long weekend, so I decided I'd go about the weekend and then restart the program today. So, this afternoon I repeated the same workout as last week and have good intentions of consistently keeping this up for 90 days! My thoughts: It'll hopefully be worth it in 3 months when I'm relaxing on the beach!

2 prayer requests I have for you before I leave you for the evening:

1. Please pray for my sweet mom! She's been under the weather for about a week now, and found out today that she's got pneumonia! Poor Mom! Am I the only person that thinks that moms aren't supposed to get sick?

2. My dear friend Nelson was deployed last week and he'll probably be gone for about 6 months. Please pray for his safety!

I've been talking to my students about the branches of the military and I told them about Nelson and his service in the Air Force, so they all wrote Nelson letters today. They're great! I can't wait to send them off (I will also have to threaten Nelson to write them back or they will be devastated!).

Oh! There is just ONE MORE THING--

Happy birthday to my "teacher friends" Angie and Monica!

I was glad to be able to celebrate with these fun girls after school today!

OK...Max and I are officially tired and ready for bed now....

Good night to you all...
