We are about half way through the year now. I have settled into a nice routine at this point and I am actually very happy. As some of you may know, I got married just over a year ago and accepted a new job. It has been a year of adjustments, but I feel like I have done well. I am enjoying feeling settled, but I know our district is cutting back next year and I am starting to really worry about my job prospects next year. I really want to go on a short trip over spring break, but don't know where. I am just having a hard time spending the money right now with the insecurity of the next few months. Is there somewhere you would suggest we go for four days? What would you suggest we do to continue saving money and scrimping so we can continue to travel? What are you doing? I am really just in a chatty mood...What's on your mind?
A vacation sounds great. What's on my mind? I've been working on my business all day. And all last night. I'm trying to find the perfect bases for my products. I am going out of my mind trying to find those stupid clear plastic penny candy containers. NO ONE makes those!!!! I found one company, but I have to order 2,000 to get a price break, and that will not only kill me with renting a warehouse, but will be a lot of money upfront. I can't believe how difficult it is to buy simple containers and boxes. I've also been researching laser printers. It's a huge investment and I just want to call someone and tell them to tell ME which one to buy. Just tell me and I'll buy it. I'm sick of reviews and researching and finding nothing helpful.
I'm not sure what you're buying for but I used this website someone told me about when I was shopping for crock pots! http://www.consumersearch.com/
On my mind I have to book a plane ticket by Feb 8th..not sure where to go I hope we have a snow day tomorrow I can't decide which dress to wear to a cocktail party...I feel huge lately
On my mind... thank goodness I finished my midterms on time I have so much to plan for our wedding this summer, and I have not been the most motivated to get it done. I am excited to get married, but not plan one. I can not wait for the end of the month and have money again. (pay day is t minus 3 days!) I wish there is some way I could help a great deal of the more vocal staff members decide that differentiation is good instruction, not just more work. I need to figure out how to fit more hours in my day. do I sell my house to move to an area with better high schools? My son starts high school next year.
What's on my mind? A giant, super-pretty, sort of flat, Tuscan style soup bowl with a really warm brownie chock full of walnuts. Topped, of course, with vanilla ice cream and a ladle of the best hot fudge one can find.
On my mind: I really hope that I get a job this year. It's looking more and more like a real possibility. I don't know why I got a $400 check from a district I worked at over 2 years ago, but I'm glad I did! I really hope I get a job!
I was extremely motivated after I posted and I hit the gym - yay for me!!! I cleaned up my kitchen - that felt good. Now I am wondering if I can get the word cards colored before I go to bed. I also want to know why our garage is so awful!! We have constant water build up on the floor and it is slowing breaking our door. When will the economy improve so that we can get a house with a yard? I also want to find something fun to do with my husband just because. He is working so hard on his graduate program and still doing a great job at his work. He deserves something fun.
I fell asleep around 5:30, just now woke up, and now I feel all woozy. I REALLY hope this weather wipes out DFW and shuts down the schools tomorrow b/c I just want to SLEEP allllll day!!!:|
On my mind: I need to keep on top of my school work. I should really be working on my two grad classes. I wish I had the time and energy to get more done around the house and maybe even exercise. I want to finalize plans for the house we are going to build, but worry about the economy right now and if it's the right time...but I sure don't want to wait anymore! Besides, I've been worrying about money since the day I graduated (almost 7 years ago). There are just not enough hours in the day! But also how thankful I am that I finally have a job to stress about and a nice enough place to live in right now...and that we even own land to build a house on!
On my mind: I really hope we have a snow day tomorrow! (Fat chance but maybe ) One of the roomies just made an apple crips and had vanillaice cream MMmmm! SOOOOO good!!
I hope DH's hand gets back to good health so he can go back to work and I can stop worrying about our mortgage. and whether I should adopt another cat?
I wish I could go on vacation. I am taking the CBEST this feb. and I will sign up for the CSET multiple subtest I, II, III... I am not a happy camper. I am happy that I just started volunteering at a local elementary school and I find helping those kids (grades 3-6) validates the career path I've chosen.
I am going through a period of time where I make a ton of mistakes when I type. I should have done some grading yesterday. Because of assemblies and snowdays, we are behind on writing and math.
