Oh My It's Been A While

I'm sooo sorry I haven't posted in a month. I meant to post pictures of my trip to Atlanta and then I got them back and well, I look slighty chubby in all of them. Which prompted me to buy a scale. I stepped on it and almost had a heart attack from the shock of it all. I mean, I knew I had put on a few pounds because I went from working out daily to not working out EVER, but who knew that one could gain almost 20 pounds in a school year???? Yikes. So I've finally got the motivation I needed to start working out again. I work out four days a week after school. Forget getting up in the morning before work. That is just not my style. It means I get home pretty late, but while Scott is home and willing and able to get the kids and start dinner, I'm going. It's actually been nice to work out again, and I've found tons of patience I didn't know I was missing to share with my students. One even commented on my happier demeanor. Of course, it could just be that there are only 18 days left with students this school year!! Or that I made it through the rash of pink slips that appeared at my school two weeks ago. But whatever it is, things are good in my world.

I also decided to teach summer school. I'll let you know later if that was a good decision or not.

In kid news...Kristin is a budding track star. Her track coaches had her practice running hurdles in two practices and then put her in a race the next meet. She placed 4th!! She's so amazing.

Daniel went to his first band competition a couple of weeks ago. His band scored ALL ONEs. Which is pretty amazing. His band teacher cried!

And that's all for now!
