Catch up Time!

Cannot believe October is here. what fun we have had trying to get school schedules correct, people in right math classes, and actual teaching teachers. Glad September is over due to that mess. In between school we have had volleyball practices and games, loads of dance classes, and competition dance practice,colorguard practice and football nights, band practice and drumline competition. And of course................ sleep!

Mike has been traveling between ananda and Missouri for pasdt few weeks and look forward to November when we hope he will be around more. With him gone Susan picks up her heels and works with preschoolers Tuesda and Thursday and tries to keep everyone's schedule straight and maybe help out with Algebra, Physics, English etc.. Get the pretty picture....... It is fun in an odd way. Try it........... maybe you'll like it too. LOL!

This is picture of Stephanie from drum competition and they came in 6th. Not too bad. Room for improvement. The other is Kayla resting from flagging on field at halftime.

A JOB!!!!

YES!!! I finally did it! I am officially a two yr. old pre school teacher. I had applied to 2 schools and now I have a 2 day a week job. With my other days I will be subbing for KISD. I am soooooooooo excited. I have waited and patiently prayed and waited!!! YES!!!!
Hooray for me!!!! WAHOO!!!!!!!!!

RAIN!!! Lovely rain

We got rain and thunder and more rain this morning at 3 am... It was wonderful to hear. I mean the real rain that creates floods and really wets your grass and plants. Then....again at 8:30 am... WE GOT RAIN!!! It was so awesome to have. And guess what???? No humidity came with it. It is a lovely 92 degrees today. LOVING IT!!! AM I nuts...........yep.

Random thoughts..............

Okay.... I am sitting her waiting for bathtub to unclog since the previous owners used it for all their dogs to be bathed in... so it taking a while. yes...today is bathroom cleaning day ....all four of them. hahahaha.

I decided that I am going to take a photography class. My friend Liz has been taking amazing pics since she has taken a fresher course and maybe that will improve my eye. Of course I need to pinch my budget just a bit more for that!!

I also decide that I need to learn about quickbooks. It seems little companies that are hirng here want that...I don't have it. But am willing to learn.

I have signed myself up to sub in grades 1-12 around her and hopefully will be busy... my other job could have the potential of being a third shift worker at Kroger so I can go to an island or carribean adventure next year.

My biggest job is researching insurance companies to get the better deal on house and cars since I live in the metroplex. Any ideas???

So that is my random thought process for now. Tune in for more excitement!!!

Better yet........maybe take some classes and think about getting a masters degree in something. Alright ..this is enough!!
