Geo Caching part 2


I went Geo Caching with friends yesterday, May 30, 2009. Wasn't sure what to expect, but I had a lot of fun. Definitely want to continue. We found 4 around the Lake Wales area. There are more for me to find and so they will be part of my next Geo Caching journeys. My friends Allie and Zach are definitely Geo caching experts and are very good teachers. This all started when I agreed to be part of Discovery Educator Network's 1st Annual Geo Caching Day. It was just the 3 of us, but it made for a wonderful morning. Our small group was one of over 30 DEN Geo Caching events that day. Cool prizes and lunch was paid for also. Discovery Education definitely rocks. I am such a nerd, but I don't care. I am now no longer a Geo Caching newbie. Wahoo! So now my Geo Caching journeys will be included in my blogs. Until next time...

Traveling


Well it's winding down...only a few more days left. The last few days are always fun and sad at the same time. I've been to Orlando with the 7th graders. With the 8th graders, we went to Orlando and Tampa. Yes, I am exhausted. All the trips are now completed and so with just a few days left, I will pack up what's left and say goodbyes. Only a few though because like I said earlier, there are some people and somethings I won't miss and some people and somethings I will miss. It's crazy what can be done in one week. Bok Tower on Monday, Sea World on Wednesday and Busch Gardens on Thursday. WOW...what a week! Until next time...

Memorial Day Weekend


I am very fortunate for what I have and very thankful. Yes, I may complain about stuff sometimes and worry about my finances, but for the most part that is all minor. I am able to pay my bills each month, I have a roof over my head, food to eat and family and friends that love me. There are many people in this world that don't have that or may not be able to see their family and friends. For this I am thankful. I am also thankful for an extra day off work. There are people in this world that are giving their lives so that I can have one. For them I am thankful. So everyone else out there in blogger world and beyond be thankful for what you have and those who are in your life. It could be worse.

Sick

Yes, I am sick. I can't even tell you the last time I was this sick. It's been a long time since I threw up. Last night was bad. Throwing up 5-6 times one right after another is crazy. Yuck! I was thinking when is this gonna stop and talk about sweating. Haha. I don't like being sick and honestly I think it's food poisoning. It takes a lot for me to miss a day of work. I usually just go to work sick, but this is another story.

DisneyQuest


I went to DisneyQuest today. If you have never been there, you must try to go there sometime in the near future. So much fun and lots to do. Definitely can spend 3-4 hours there and get everything done. I was able to be a kid again there.


DisneyQuest Indoor Interactive theme park is a one-of-a-kind gaming experience in the Downtown Disney area. Discover 5 floors of cutting-edge technology, virtual reality and 3D encounters fueled by Disney innovation and imagination. Don't miss Pirates of the Caribbean, Virtual Jungle Cruise(did it twice), CyberSpace Mountain(did it twice), Buzz Lightyear's Astroblasters, Animation Academy and much more!


I did CyberSpace Mountain twice. That is where you create your own rollercoaster and then ride it. The second time I got a DVD of myself riding it. Woohoo! Now I can laugh at myself. It was a fun day for myself and those I was with.

I learned a lot in the past year...here they are




  • Start enjoying what is going on around me.


  • How I am as a person is not going to change.


  • I am not a morning person so everyone needs to get used to it.


  • Talking is overrated.


  • Silence really is a wonderful thing.


  • I have no problems listening.


  • I care about some stuff, but not everything.


  • I really like my house.


  • I really like my family.


  • There are some people I will miss and there are some people I won't miss.


  • I like weekends.


That's all for now....It's time for the weekend...Time for me to relax and have fun!

Life



It's crazy...sometimes I don't know what's going on. All I know is that I need to be happy and try to have as much fun as possible.
