  • It's been a difficult week.
    My boss has decided that instead of enrolling 60
    kids like we did last year, we are going to enroll 95 kids.
    That's great and all, but we still have only two full time teachers.
    And it looks like it's going to stay that way for awhile.
    Fortunately, we have only had around 60 kids this week,
    so we've been okay. Next week will be the challenge...
    Anyone want to come work at my school?

    Anyway, my classes are fine. I swear my text books cost more than my tuition
    this semester. Which would explain why I still don't have all my books.
    I have a feeling that Wednesdays are going to be the hardest days.
    I'm in class all morning, go straight to work, and then straight to church.
    But since I only have classes on Monday and Wednesday,
    I have Thursday to try to recover.
    My boss and I were talking about it before I left work
    and she said that I should be fine as long as I have my "Sonic power juice".
    (They gave me a Sonic giftcard at the end of last semester, and I hadn't used
    it up so I've been relying on Sonic drinks for energy this week.
    Unfortunately, I used up the card today...)

    I am totally ready for a nice long weekend of nothingness.

  • I am either crazy or...

    the best big sister ever. Or maybe both... I don't know.

    Last night I took Chris to the Cowboys open practice.
    We got there around 3:30 and the line was already halfway
    around the stadium. But we stuck it out and actually got
    pretty good seats. Not too far up, but up high enough
    to stay dry when it started raining.

    I had my camera so of course I had to try to get
    as close to the field as possible, and made it to the rails
    which is pretty dang close. I didn't get to meet anyone, but
    Sam Hurd did smile and nod at me (either that or he was looking
    at the old dude next to me...). And I took some awesome
    pictures. Including an amazing one of my boy (Barber) which really
    cool because he's really shy and tries to stay hidden as much as possible.  

    The most important thing is, Chris had a blast. And I officially
    got the "coolest big sister" award for the night.

  • I love my Jeep, although it's a heck of alot bigger than my Mustang.

    And now that I've bought a new car and have to deal with car payments,
    I come to a very annoying roadblock.

    School starts next monday, and I don't know if I have a job...
    My boss called me last year to make sure I still wanted to come back
    to work at the school, but nobody has called me yet. And I'm starting
    to get a little nervous.
    I know it's all going to work out, and that if all else fails, I can
    get a job at another school, but I really don't want to do that.

    Ugh. I don't like waiting.

    *edit* I just got the phone call. They want me back!
