The joys of school

I started taking my last 2 classes for education last Saturday. It is not fun having to wake up at 7 am on my off day. I won't get to sleep in for the next 8 weeks. I will say that class is going well. We are there from 8:30-4:30 every Saturday. Well, I should say that is the time we are supposed to be there. She has let us out between 2-3 both weeks so hopefully it will continue that way. Work is also going well. We only have 7 weeks left; that means 6 weeks of instruction, 2 days of review, and 3 days of exams. Then I am OUT until August 11th. YAY!!! It's going to be a wonderful summer :-) Oh, and good news, I was recommended for a renewal of contract for the 2008-2009 school year. The first 3 years of teaching, at any school, you are up for renewal at the end of the year. This year there have been extreme budget cuts and I was lucky enough to not be affected. I guess you can chalk it up to no one else wanting to teach Interior Design (actually not KNOWING how to). The only way I wouldn't be re hired is if someone else in the county that teaches design got laid off and has precedence over me. I am the newest addition so my head is always on the chopping block! but anyways, I am going outside now to wash the cars before it gets dark. Just thought I would put an update out there :-)

I love it!!


We got our car last Thursday. It is so nice, I love driving it. Although, I am a little rusty driving a stick shift. Anyways, I have to rush, we are about to leave for church.

Unbelievable!!!

Stephen called the dealership today to get an update on our car (that was supposed to be here yesterday) and they informed him that the car hasn't left yet. Evidently the truck that will be transporting it had problems and is supposed to leave today. I can't believe they didn't even call, that is sooooo rude!!! So now they say it will be here on Wednesday, we'll see. I hope it is, I don't want to have to call them... keep you updated

We're still waiting

It is 8:30 and our new car still is not here. It was supposed to be delivered sometime today but was a no show. I am guessing that the weather interfered with the delivery. I hope it gets here tomorrow, I can't wait to drive it! We are soooo excited!!!

Spring Break is ending...

It has been a wonderful Spring Break. I went to my dads last weekend and watched my nephew play his first baseball game. He was sooooo cute, I'll have some pictures up soon. His team won, 10-2 :-) Stephen and I got a new car and it is being delievered on Sunday, I am sooo excited! I can't wait to drive it. It has been a busy break, I've been to the beach and the pool, out of town, got a facial (getting a manicure/pedicure tomorrow), went to IKEA, and took care of my sweet husband. He was sick for about 2 days :-( While he was sick I cut the grass, washed my car and cleaned the house! Today was a very busy day. Oh, IKEA is pretty cool, it is huge, so if anyone is thinking of going I suggest you plan to go more than once. We were there for about 3 hours and had to rush through 1/2 of it because we were so tired. So anyways, that is the jist of what I have been doing. I am not ready to go back to work already but I guess I can't complain; how many other people get an entire week off for "Spring Break"?! I do still have tomorrow and Sunday so it isn't completley over :-)
