Home Sweet Home

I live in the semi arid desert region of West Texas called the Permian Basin. A road trip through our part of the country offers amazing views of the sky – bright golden sunrises and watercolor sunsets so immense that they take your breath away. The land is incredibly flat and sprinkled with mesquite trees, cactus and the occasional wild flower. Breaking the monotony of the landscape, oil wells, pump jacks and wind turbines accent the horizon. Cattle ranches spread far and wide sharing the natural resources that West Texas offers. The birthplace of a U. S. President and the home of "Friday Night Lights," Odessa offers a beauty all it's own. It is a good place to build a life.

THREE DAYS AND COUNTING

SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST! That's how I describe the last week of school. I am surviving by busying the kids with games and movies. I am busying myself with cleaning out files and shelves. Tomorrow I will begin removing my identity from the choir room. My photos, awards, memorabilia.... time to pack up. Many memories to leave behind. One humorous part of the day, though. As I was cleaning out my desk, I noticed the tape measure that I use for uniform fittings. I couldn't help but smile as I rolled it up and placed it in the drawer. No more uniform fittings for me! That's nice.
