12 Hour Errands*
I am so sunburnt. Today the Hubster and I had the craziest day ever. We woke up early to rush out the door to help out with our church yard sale at 7:15 am. Part of youth organization is trying to raise money to purchase a defibrillator for our chapel. The Hubster was involved with the organization of the yard sale, so I decided to go to help out. We had the most perfect day for it… it was beautiful, sunny and warm. And obviously I forgot sunscreen. I have a magnificent t-shirt burn, complete with a neck collar and sleeves. It’s pretty hot, I’m not going to lie. After…

Updates*
Woooo-weeeee. I knew that having our own home would keep us busy, but I really didn’t have a clue about how much work it would be! It’s glorious, fulfilling, magical work… but work nonetheless. I’m still slowly but surely picking away at boxes and other tasks that need to be accomplished. All of important items are all unpacked and away, but some of the things we don’t use on a regular basis have been sitting in their boxes until I have time to get at them. Tonight I tackled the spare room. It’s kind of been our catchall for the things that don’t yet fit in our office or bedroom,…

365 Days*
One year ago today, I walked into the Pretty City School Board, signed some papers, and began my teaching career. A year ago today I was given my very first teaching assignment: elementary gym coverage. A year ago today, I experienced everything I was most afraid to encounter as a substitute teacher–grade 7’s, no lesson plans, and a subject that wasn’t one of my teachables. I survived. A year ago today, I ended an awful year of feeling like I wasn’t good enough. A year ago today I had hope. I love my job. It’s been a fabulous year. :)
