weight is comming off a lot slower now only down 4 lbs since I last wrote in my journal. Went on a field trip with the 1st graders today. We went to a dairy farm and had a blast. There isn't a day that goes by that I can't say do you know what I learned in 1st grade today? It's amazing the things you forget or don't remember learning.  I am a special ed aide and the teacher I work with is wonderful. I especially like the fact that we believe in the same things like discipline and learning ideals. I love my job, I just wish it payed more, but oh well love or money hummm, If I make a difference in any of these students lives love wins over hands down. Well I guess I had better go for now. chow
