Another Fun Filled Week

This will be another fun filled week. Because of the storms last Friday, our school field day has been moved to this Friday. I was not so thrilled because I wasn't even at school on Friday but will be there this week. This means I get to help. Not a fun way to end a week especially when we have our end of the year blow out that night.

I am also having an author visit our school this week (on Tuesday). The kids are very excited and can't wait to meet her. I am hoping for a good response afterward as well.

I did have a little fun this weekend by going to the Scholastic Warehouse sale and getting almost $900 worth of books. About half are going to be added to the school library and the other half to the AR prizes for the older students.

On a happy note, I got my grades and have kept my 4.0!! Only 1 semester left and I am hopeful to continue to keep my GPA at a 4.0 and graduate that way in August.

Mother's Day

Spent a restful Mother's Day with my mom. We rested around the house until this afternoon then headed to Weatherford and Baker's Rib. We ate some delicious BBQ and fried pies. After eating we drove toward Granbury enjoying the scenery on some back roads. Dad and mom spent a lot of time reminiscing about the old days and the times spent hunting and camping in the area. We finally headed home just in time for me to get everything ready for another week of school.

On a happy note my principal sent an email today saying we can wear jeans all week long in celebration of Teacher Appreciation Week. We are a week later than most since our PTO president was gone last week with 4th grade to Camp Grady Spruce.

On another happy note, I have finished with classes for this semester and am just waiting to get my grades back. Only 1 semester left!!! I also filled out my application for graduation and will mail it tomorrow. So much to do and so little time left!!!!!

Long time no see.....errr write

Okay so my New Year's resolution was to keep this updated and it is now May and I think this is my 2nd or 3rd post of the year. Wow!! I guess I blew that one. Things have been crazy busy but I am happy to say they are smoothing out. I know that the minute they do it will just kick in with the next part of my life and craziness.

I am almost finished with school for this semester and forever!!! I have 1 course to take this summer and my Capstone experience. This will be a hell week for me in early June so I may go missing again around that time. To all my friends if I disappear from here, facebook, email, and do not return calls it's nothing personal I am just dying!! Just kidding I will just be slammed with all of the assignments for that one week. If all goes well, I will graduate on August 13th!!!!! This is the best news and I am so glad that I took on this challenge. I have had so many wonderful opportunities since I took this challenge on.

Like I said the craziness is dieing down but will soon resume with summer school and house hunting. I am very excited to be looking for my first house to purchase. I have already started looking and have seen a few that interest me. I am hoping to be a home owner by the end of this summer if not sooner. Then it will be me all on my own (well, except for my dog).

The last month has probably been one of the busiest. I went to San Antonio for the TLA annual conference. While there I was able to meet up with my bff and her family. I wish I could have stayed longer but knew that things were still busy in my life and I needed to head back. I also had a great time meeting so many other librarians and getting authors to sign various books to add to the school library. The kids have loved coming in and finding all of the new books and then finding out about the signatures. I can't wait for next April when it's in Austin and I get to have even more fun!

Hopefully my next post won't be so far away that I feel like I have to put so much in. Stay tuned for more Total Insanity!
