So, today was, of course, a Monday. It wasn't a bad day at all. In fact, it was a pretty good day. Nothing spectacular, but nothing less than good. My students were great...they behaved and participated, which is a little out of the ordinary, but I'm not complaining.
On the way to school (since it's a 40-minute drive) I was listening to Steven Furtick from Elevation Church in Charlotte. He's preaching through Song of Solomon right now and doing a series on relationships. I think that Sarah and I do a pretty good job with our relationship, but there's always room for improvement. Two things that Steven said, both of which I've known for a while and heard several times, are stuck in my head. One - I need to keep pursuing my wife even after I've caught her. Two - I need to never stop dating my wife. I'm not going to explain anything about those, but I thought you might want to hear what I heard this morning.
Hope you're having as good a day as I am!

Weekend Update
Well, apparently I only blog on the weekends right now, so here's this weekend's update.
Yesterday, Sarah and I drove up to see the new house and check on its progress. It looked great. The paint is done, the flooring is down, and it seems like they're just doing detail work now. As of now, our closing is October 24, which is just under 4 weeks away. We're both really excited. The only problem is that right now, all we can do is sit and wait. If you want to see some pictures, check out sarahweber.org.
Last night, my aunt and uncle came over for dinner. It was great getting to chill out and eat with them. Sarah and I really enjoyed it. Sarah cooked pork loin, and it was awesome. Suzanne brought apple pie, so we had a great meal and a great dessert.
This morning we went to Palmetto Shores Church in Socastee, and then came home to eat leftovers and relax together for the rest of the day.
It's been a great weekend, and it's going to be a great week coming up.

Fun Times
Today, Sarah and I were planning on going to the beach. Even though it was bright and sunny in Conway, once we got to Surfside, it looked really cloudy, and we didn't want to take the chance of getting stuck in the rain, since we were having to pay to park at the state park.
Anyway, we went to check out the progress on our house, and it's coming along well. As far as we could tell (we can't go in, but we looked through the windows), all of the painting was done and the garage door was installed.
Then we went to try out a new restaurant - Panda, which is in Carolina Forest near the Kroger. The food was good and priced well, but we were the only customers there, and it was lunchtime on a Saturday. Weird.
Well, after that, we went to Wal-Mart, bought Clue and Monopoly, and spent the majority of the rest of the day playing games. Most of the time, Sarah won (every time we played Monopoly she won), but I had a few victories.
All in all, even though we didn't get to go to the beach like we wanted to, it was an awesome day. I really enjoyed getting to spend a whole day with my wife and not worry about anything else. Maybe we can do it again tomorrow :-)

Starting off badly
So, before the tardy bell even rang before first block today, a fight broke out in my room. It was over within a few minutes, but that is a horrible way to start off a day and a week. Hopefully tomorrow shall be better.

We made it through
Last night Tropical Storm Hanna came through. Basically, it was a great big thunderstorm. Other than that, we didn't have any problems whatsoever. Anyway, Hanna is gone, and it looks like we're completely avoiding Ike. Woohoo!
