Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving! Faith is downstairs sleeping on the couch in front of the TV. After all, that is one of the things thanksgiving is about. :) Jamie is playing on the computer playing Sims. Joe just got off of the phone with his mom. (Hi ma!) I am up here in the bedroom doing homework. Fun! Fun!

Do not fear though, the turkey is in the oven, the jello is in the fridge. And the rest of our dinner can't be prepared until 5:00. So we're all set. No more eating until dinner is ready. :)

One week and a few days until my Master's work will be done! :) I am excited and nervous about getting all of my work done. But luckily I'm a substitute teacher and can take next week off to study. :)

I know it is strange...

I know it is strange, but we were so excited to go to WalMart today! There are no WalMarts around here! URG! So we drove to Woodburn to go to WalMart. We didn't buy an exorbitant amount of things. We just really missed WalMart so we went. And since we had to drive so far away, we couldn't buy groceries there that would spoil or melt.

I have two cute pairs of boots and not skits to wear with them, right now. So I went out this evening on my own and bought two cute skirts, two shirts, and a pair of jammies. :) It was fun to get out and go shopping. I only wish I had a girlfriend to go with me.

Staying Busy

I've been staying busy subbing. I didn't think I would be quite so busy. I've been to 1/2 of the elementary schools in the district, all but one of the middle schools and one high school. I just got signed up for the girls' school, so hopefully I'll be subbing there soon. I would love to sub there most if not all of the time.

I subbed in a classroom that is the same as my old classroom, with the very special ed. It was fun. Of course, there was none of the paper work, meetings or politics. But it made me miss my old job and hope that I can work with those very special students once more.

The girls are busy with school. Jamie is taking an art class once a week. And Faith is coming with me to homework club. I tutor two students during homework club and help other students when I can.
