I had a student today convinced that Daylight Savings ending meant a longer day at school. Try as we might, we could not get through to her that the hours changing meant that you both "got to school an hour later" and "left an hour later". I guess it can be kind of confusing, but I just couldn't help but giggle. Bless her heart.
I also learned a lot about viruses today when I helped teach the section on it. For example, did you know that there are four shapes of viruses? Crystal, sphere, cylinder, and spacecraft. And yes, the spacecraft virus really does look like a spacecraft! I also learned that all of those Lysol "Kills 99% of viruses" is misleading. Viruses are not alive; therefore, they cannot be killed. You can wipe them up and throw them into the trash, but you aren't killing anything. Interesting, isn't it?

I have decide that this layout is incredibly dull. I would love a more customized layout, but I simply don't have the money to purchase one. I wonder if I can Google and find a free version? I may have to look into that.

Please continue to pray for Nick. Also, if you could spare a few more prayers, please pray for my new niece or nephew and my new cousin, due April and May.
