So a mild ultimatum was brought down last night: My MK boss wants me more hours, but I cannot possibly squeeze them into the day ( Read more... )

Good things are popping up all over. First of all, I am mad excited about going to the CSF Girl's Retreat next weekend, where I get to do some teaching and leading- HOORAY! It has been so long since I've been able to perpare a lesson for a women's group, and I am really excited about what God's going to do. I am also excited about getting out of ( Read more... )

So, I was intvited to a Halloween party tonight, but I was unsure if I was going to go, since I hadn't really thought of a costume. Joanie and I tossed around ideas: princesspirate, goat, etc., but nothing seemed right. Until I was coloring with a student today and it hit me. I could be a cat lady. 
After all,  between Joanie and I, there was all ( Read more... )

It's been a week since I posted, and let me tell you what an amazing week it has been. Although starting a 11 hour work day has been stressful, it's easy to see that I am where I am supposed to be, and although I spent much time moping and groaning, I am smack dab in the middle of a very cool time in my life- I'm busy, I'm happy and I feel quite ( Read more... )

 I couldn't have asked for a better weekend! The drive wasn't too bad, so I guess I can forgive that.....

But now, I have to go to sleep because in the morning I have to go to my NEW JOB!  :) :)

Praise God!

 Today I taught second grade. It was an eventful day.

I was taking the kids to the cafeteria, watching them wash their hands and then go through the line. I was standing half-in, half out of the cafeteria and I kept hearing instruments, specifically blaring tubas. When I poked my head in, I was surprised to see someone holding BAND REHERSAL in  a ( Read more... )

I just thought everyone would like to see my new haircut. I need to get a better picture of it, but this is me at the Biltmore, being scandalized by the sassy, but scantilly clad statue. Look closely, becuase it's adorable (the haircut, not the statue.) It may not happen again, because my stylist and his boyfriend are moving to Colorado... *sigh.

 1. If it weren't for TV on the Internet, I might not make it through life. 
2. I am a candidate for a Sp. Ed. Assistant position. I hope I get it. It would be a steady income and perhaps good health insurance. 
3. If I don't get it, I am going to start working for a non-profit after school program. It kills my evenings and will run me ragged, but it ( Read more... )

 
I'm doing this because I asked Emily for something, :) And, of course, there is much joy in giving!

For the first three people that reply to me and re-post this challenge - I will send you something groovy.
It might be something I've made, or something cool from my hidden stash of fabulousity, it might be a mix CD - or a rubber duck, a book I ( Read more... )
