Tuesday List

* I saw the podiatrist today for a follow up exam. The reason my foot still hurts and I still feel as if someone beat me on the foot with a baseball bat is because I had a stitch abcess in the wound. One of the internal stitches didn't dissolve and was working its way out. He had to pull it out with tweezers. It hurt. A lot. He wants to see me in 2 weeks to check why my tendons still hurt so much. But he thinks they will be better by then.

*I walked 1 mile on the treadmill after I saw the dr. The wound feels like it is on fire, but I walked.

*We cracked a coconut today. Brandi is in the kitchen trying to take the "strings and hair" off so she can use the shell as a cup.

*I wouldn't let the kids eat all the meat out of the coconut because I am not going to listen them all night.

*I woke up at 1 this morning. I didn't know what woke me up, but I had a hard time going back to sleep. I found out later that there was an earthquake across the lake about the time I woke up.

*I will be doing my internship next school year. I need a paid internship. The principals won't know until March or April what their budgets are or if they can do a paid internship. I asked my principal to keep it in mind. I also e-mailed my old principal from the jr. high to see the possibility of a paid internship with his counseling department. He is going to be the principal at a brand new, just opening this fall school. He said he would let me know. I really need a paid internship. Paid interns get 1/2 of a regular salary and benefits. And if I do an internship at a new school, the chance of staying on full time after the internship ends is huge.

Truly, I don't care where I do my internship, I just need it to be a paid internship.

*I am going to go read for class now.
