Well everone ELSE was doing it, so I guess we ought to as well! Actually I was checking out Becky's blog and saw how many others were keeping in touch with their blogs. What a wonderful idea! So anyway,... I'm going to bore you with my news too! Whoo hoo!

Now is the time to adjust to yet another new normal. We have forgotten what sleeping through the entire night is like.

One year under the ol' belt


Well, as of the 9th of June I have officially completed my first year of teaching. And I have to say, it was an absolute blast! The kids were wonderful and we were able to have tons of fun (granted, I only had 3 students but we still kicked it none the less).
This summer I was looking forward to taking it easy. Rick is now working on the Ferry System (thank you Jesus) and he's bringing home the bacon, so to speak. So, having passed off the bread-winning duties to my husband I was looking forward to doing some gardening, getting my house in order, and tying up all my loose ends... No such luck.
I have a new found respect for all school secretaries. I am definately NOT cut out for the job. I'm filling in until they hire somebody permanent. I AM goin back to teaching! I've only had about 3 hours worth of training by someone who had just had her wisdom teeth removed and was doped up of IBprofen. I know absolutely nothing about accounting (I'm lucky to make 2+2= 4). Everthing is on Quickbooks and I'm afraid to do anything because one thing effects it all!
I'm also heading up the 4th of July booths this year. It was only supposed to be the beanbag booth, but through various circumstances I have to help out with the food booth too. I need to learn to stop volunteering. Actually, I should rejoice that God is keeping me so busy. This way I'm active and socializing when I'd probably just be sitting inside playing videogames until my brains leaked out my ear (there's a picture for you).
