I'd have to give my life a 9.5 out of 10 right about now. Here's why...

I got the job at Wayzata!  :-)  I start new teacher workshops this week and school starts on the 5th.  I'm super excited!

I get to see Rascal Flatts on Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEA!!!!!!! I bought my tickets in May and have been anxiously waiting for the end of August to get here.  ( Read more... )

I had another interview today. This one is for a full time job at Wayzata High School.  I should hear back tomorrow.  Still trying to get my payroll stuff figured out with Minneapolis...I just love sitting on hold for hours to get nothing accomplished!

I have two interviews today.  One is a second interview at Sylvan Learning Center.  This would just be a tiny part time job to make a little extra spending money.  The other one is at Brooklyn Center High School.  I thought this was for a full time 8th grade job, but it turns out it's a .8 high school job.  We'll see...I think BC is where we sent ( Read more... )

So it's been quite a while since I updated this thing.  Oh well.  Here goes a little update:

Rasperry was a lot of work, but it turned out great.  I sure am glad it's over (for now).  After the parade on the 16th I headed off to camp. It was so nice to spend a week at the lake, not having to worry about anything but getting sunburned. (which I didn' ( Read more... )

Congrats to the 2006-2007 Hopkins Raspberry Festival Royalty:

Also a big thanks to Ali and Amanda for being awesome candidates.  I hope you run again next year!

Since we have new royalty, that means I'm done!!!  Yea!  Coronation went very well last night. :-) A HUGE thank you to ( Read more... )

Things are going really well.  :-)  My girls are having a great time and they can't believe coronation is on Thurs!  The only bad thing is that the weather forcast for the rest of the week is HOT.  And by hot, I mean 100 degrees by Sat!  It's gonna be very, very hot for Family Day and Parade Day, our two biggest events. This past weekend (and last ( Read more... )

It's time for the Hopkins Raspberry Festival!!!

The festival starts today. :-)  Since I am the candidate coordinator, I have to go to most of the raspberry events.  (This is just part of the list to see more, check out the raspberry website - there are pics of me as princess and as a coordinator...good luck finding them!)

Here's my schedule for the ( Read more... )

Hey all!
I haven't updated this in over a week because, quite frankly, not much has happened.

My family from Iowa stopped up on Sat. on their way up North.  My grandma is doing well after her surgery (yea!!) she is still as stubborn as ever. :-) We had a little grad party for my bro and then they were off to the lake.  So this week it's just been ( Read more... )

It's amazing how much crap one person can accumulate.  This is what I'm finding out this week.  My goal is to finish what I started last April...clean and organize my room.  I've thrown out a whole bunch of stuff and I bought some new storage bins.  I now need to find the motivation to get further than I did over a year ago and actually put the ( Read more... )

Oh, what a week!  Where do I start ( Read more... )
