Wasn't that the name of an Angelina Jolie movie a few years ago? I think I watched it and wasn't impressed. Which sad to say, sums up a lot of things right now.
1. School isn't fun---too many new people to the school/district who don't know what should be done. I'm trying to do my job and get them the information they need---but---like I said before...too many new ones who don't know what to do/where "up" is/etc. Totally frustrating. Not happy. Hopefully getting better soon. (that was the positive--so take note!)
2. Wedding planning: not as fun as I thought it would be. Making the list is stressful. Why do people NOT share new addresses when they move? That should be like taking a driver's test--ABSOLUTELY mandatory. Menu? Too much to even discuss. Too many decisions that have to be made and I feel like I'm the go-between half the time. I do not enjoy this new "position" that has been created and would like out of it immediately. Does anyone know where I can send my Letter of Resignation to regarding the "go-between" job? And don't just say elope--not an option (not by my choice).
3. My darn keyboard at school. Stupid thing doesn't have a proper functioning "F", "V", "B", or anything in that area. How do I know this??? I have to re-type half the stuff I do b/c of those darn letters. Can't tell you how many times "for" has come out "or" and too many others to list! By the way...it's not just "user error"--another teacher is having the same issues!
Here are some positives in my life though:
1. Chipper----when he plays so hard on the weekends in Cuero with Ruth and Runge (parents' dogs), he literally passes out for 1.5 days--the 1/2 being Sunday afternoon and then all of Monday! Bad thing is that by Tuesday he's VERY well-rested and ready to explore the neighborhood.
2. Jeffery--He really is liking school and the place he's living (which happens to be in an RV park at a marina on Lake Conroe). He goes fishing all the time, has built a porch to add on to his living space (and is our entertaining area!!), and always has fun stories about the "locals".
3. My family and friends--through all my school and wedding stress they've been very supportive and for that (and my crying fits), I'm thankful! This doesn't mean they're exempt from my frustrations, so you may want to add them to your prayer list!
4. My students--So far (and I sure hope I'm not blowing it now) I have a great group of kids who really do seem to try and so far I'm liking them!
Follow us on our new adventure in California! Follow our 2 rowdy boys, 2 messy dogs, and 2 parents trying to make it all work. Our life. Real. Uncut.
