Well they called me to sub half a day tomorrow for a P.E. teacher at the same school I was at before, but apparently it's a pretty rough school. So...I decided I wasn't sure I wanted to deal with a bunch of hyper kids and keep them under control in something like P.E. So I told them I would prefer they found someone else to do this one, but I ( Read more... )

So they finally called me to sub today, but it was only for half a day, because the teacher had to leave at like 11:30. I AM SO GLAD I DIDN'T HAVE TO SUB ALL DAY. They were horrible!!!! Like, everything that is bad, they were. I could not control them. It did not matter if I talked nicely to them, if I yelled at the top of my lungs at them, or ( Read more... )

Oh my gosh, I cannot even BEGIN to describe how stressful things have been. So Wednesday or Thursday, Josh came home and told me about how he discovered he could get another bachelor's degree with only a few more credits. So this is worrying me because if he does this: 1) We might not move back to Springfield, 2) If we do move to Springfield, he ( Read more... )

Easter was fun. We ate a HUGE lunch, and then ate this weird "tres leches" cake I made, and um...helped my sister and brother-in-law hide Easter eggs for the kids. I am a big kid I guess, because I still love hiding Easter eggs and watching my niece and nephews find them. I remember when I was little, we didn't have the plastic eggs that you put ( Read more... )

So last night we finally got to meet Noemi's fiance! It was fun...we ate at Schlotski's and then went to Jordan Valley Park. They played in the fountain, and then we walked around the park and walked around downtown. The weather was BEAUTIFUL and so was the park...I LOVE that park. My favorite! Then Josh and I crashed my sister's house and ( Read more... )

So Friday, Josh and I went to his senior banquet his school put on, and they did this pirate theme, so they had it in a cave!! For real, we were in a cave, and they had tables set up with candles, and they were decorated with gold coins, spyglasses, and hooks. It was fun. They played the soundtrack to Pirates of the Caribbean. There were ( Read more... )

So tomorrow, I think Josh and I are going to go to Carthage, where we will hopefully see the Civil War Museum there, and Carthage's historic downtown square with lots of little shops, and then we will go to their Drive-in theater which is the only one in this area of Missouri. I hope it will be fun ( Read more... )

Almost exactly 6 years ago, I was a senior in high school, and my Spring break had just started. It was a Friday or Saturday night, and my aunt called. I answered the phone and cheerfully told her hello. She asked if she could talk to my dad. I went and gave him the phone. The next thing I remember is him running into the bathroom, moaning "Oh ( Read more... )

Okay, so I know most people hate country, and I even make fun of it, but I've always liked this song, and reading the lyrics today made me tear up because I am totally at the stage in life described in the second part, because I am so poor and totally wondering where my life is going to go ( Read more... )
