A Baby...

We have been keeping a secret for about two months now. We are going to have a baby!!!! Fortunate for me I have not been hardly sick at all. Everything makes me gag, but no throwing up. After reading other blogs I feared the porcelain thrown. I am so glad that I have not had to make it my own.

It is strange to tell people after keeping it a secret for so long.... A couple things about it.

1. We refer to the baby as peanut until we find out the gender

2. We don't care if it's a boy or a girl

3. It was not really planned, but we welcome peanut with open arms

4. We are planning out names for the grandparents.... and Erin and I have for sure decided on Auntie Erin

5. Grandma Wanda is glad that I am not "throwing my socks up" like she did

6. We are very worried about Hercules when he sees the baby and realizes that they do not look the same (we have not told him he is adopted)

7. I have not gained any weight. I weigh two pounds less and my doctor gave me a not so nice look last time I was there

8. We have been to the doctor twice and had two not so pleasant ultrasounds

9. We look forward to decorating the nursery, but that takes money and we are graduating in December and interviewing for jobs... so please pray for us

10. We got a seat belt for Hercules so that he would still be able to ride in the car

Well have a good day....

Plagiarism Part II

Plagiarism has been the disappointment of my week. However, things are looking on the brighter side now.

The girl insists that she just misunderstood the assignment. So he gladly sent me a new paper {with her sources I mind you} and we are all handy dandy.

After I sent the guy the stern email he wrote be back and said okay. Then in class that evening he told me I was right and that it was a good thing that I did not take the subject lightly. He also obliged me with a correct paper with sources.

Well now my paper is well on its way to completion. I am only missing one persons paper and I guess I will just have to start sending hate mail until I receive it.

Well maybe that isn't the best tactic. But I guess whatever works for ya.

Plagiarism

I have developed a new pet peeve in my life. Plagiarism. I was assigned to write a paper with four of my other classmates. I have no problem with this, but I wanted the knowledge that it was done so I had them all send me their paper. Upon receiving their paper one of the people had sent me a completely plagiarized paper. OH MY!!!!!! No references no nothing. So I wrote her an email and in a stern but kind way told her I would not be accepting her paper and she needed a new one.

Well I never got a response.

I emailed another group member to inform him that we might be needing to write more because we might have lost a member due to plagiarism. He informed me that I did not need to worry about plagiarist. The teacher would probably not notice. He informed me that he had also copy and pasted a majority of his paper but he did not figure anyone would notice!!!!!

WHO SAYS THESE THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO.... In my naive mind this just happens on the movies not in MY class in MY group!!!!!

Lord please give me the wisdom to deal with this situation in a way that honors you.

I Am Sorry

I have neglected my blog for months now and I just wanted to say I was sorry... Perhaps I will try to do better but no promises.
