Crazy Friday

What a crazy day!! First - it's Friday. (Yay!) Then - it's picture day. Then - we have a bunch of teachers already out and then at least two more went home at the beginning of the day. So some subs got moved around and aides were used in other classes.

But...it's Friday. I have Saturday school tomorrow morning and then I'm spending the rest of the weekend doing laundry and watching conference. I just love General Conference! It's the boost I always need. I need to feel that spirit. I need to find hope again. Well, I actually have hope. But someone else in our house doesn't. I'm hoping and praying that he can feel the Spirit this weekend. That he will feel Heavenly Father's love for him. And that our family can come together again.

Spring Has Sprung

We made it through spring break. A wonderfully enjoyable and productive week off school. Finally got the house really cleaned. Of course, now we're just dirtying it up again and I'm not keeping up again, but it's not long until summer. Just eight weeks away.

Eight weeks. That means in eight weeks, Chris will be graduating. In 10 weeks, he will be at BYU. I don't think it's really hit me yet. Tuition, housing, meal plans, travel there and back. Ack! It'll work out somehow.

We're still unemployed. Not sure what's going on in that regard except that we're getting an unemployment check every two weeks.

But...since it's spring...the weather has been BEAUTIFUL lately! I keep meaning to go work in the front flower beds, but of course, other things come up - things that aren't quite so physically taxing.

And...in celebration of spring...I've joined Weight Watchers again. Today is the last day of my first week. It's harder this time - I think because I eat when I'm stressed and I'm ALWAYS stressed. Eating healthy is much more expensive that eating unhealthy. Fruits and vegetables are expensive these days. But it's still less expensive than medical issues. Of course, since we had pizza and pie for lunch today - I think I ruined my diet today. But maybe I'll walk the dog to help that out this afternoon and we'll go from there. :-)
