Now Playing: We Are Family -- Sister Sledge
I've been keeping track via the internet of this cold case murder trial. A Sister of Mercy was killed in Toledo, Ohio in 1980 and they just now have the person who they think killed her in custody. The person is a priest. I hope that justice will be served in this case. Please pray for a closure for her family so that they will finally know what happened and why.

The administration at work tried to pin something on me this week that is not my problem. The headmaster tried to tell me that I should be the one to call and talk to the parents of 2 children who attacked each other (one got a black eye). This happened while I was the only one there. The school was out of ratio (there's a city ratio of 10 children to 1 adult). I had 12 children with me when I noticed a white pick-up truck drive up to the school (we were outside). I walked forward to check out the truck to see if the men inside of it posed a threat to the children....it was just a parent and friend dropping off another child. While they did so, two of the other children were punching each other...fighting... I told the headmaster and filled out an incident report on the black eye. The school never followed up on it. A few weeks later, I was told that I have to call the parents because one of the parents was a Board member and demanded some sort of closure. I was mad because this happened while I was out of ratio. I thought I did my job by reporting it to the person in charge and filling out an incident report. I refused to make the calls. I talked to my lead teacher about it and she talked to the headmaster, and he suggested that we just drop it. I'm relieved.

Tonight a friend is going to come over and cleanse my apartment of bad spirits...etc... I don't know if I buy into that, but it's always nice to have the company. I have an amethyst stone that needs to be cleansed as well. I hope the smoke doesn't set off the smoke alarm. I need to get some small cleaning done before she comes over. Tomorrow's Friday! Thank God!

On Monday I spent some time with my spiritual director who is a Sister of Mercy and my friend Renee. We were looking at my spiritual director's computer to see if we could figure out why it was being so dang slow. My spiritual director made us dinner and we also got to get a glimpse into her life pre-vatican 2 and thereafter. She showed us a photo album of herself when she was in habit. She said her religious name was Sister Rosaire (spelling?). Both Renee and I had an awesome time looking at the pictures. My spiritual director also writes booksand takes photos. She's great at both. I have all three books that she's written. See the above link for her books.

I think I need a nap.
