Yes, Drew is at the age where his friends are letting it be known that they don’t believe in Santa. Drew is really struggling to believe in him. He was questioning everything today about Santa. Even though we told him last year that most of the Santa we see are just his helper, he still days well why does the REAL Santa come to our mall? I did the best I could to explain, but he continued to say things like “Well, I just don’t know why we don’t get to see Rudolph” or “How does he get all over…

Well, I got everything done with newsletters and packages today. I also got some other gifts wrapped. We had our work party today. It seems that everytime I make something to contribute to the party food, it never gets eaten. It just makes me not want to contribute. We had like 20 desserts, but that’s what I was supposed to bring. Oh well! Anyway, it turned out that my secret pal who I had had me too, which I was pretty sure that was the case. He seemed to be really shocked that I was his secret pal. I think…

So last weekend we went and got our Christmas tree. I’ll post pictures as soon as I get through with all the rush of the next couple of days. I was trying to get a package mailed out today, but I didn’t! I also haven’t finished our Christmas newsletter yet…Yes! It’s true. I hope to have those out tomorrow if I can finish them tonight, get them printed tomorrow, in the envelopes, sealed, stamped and dropped off! Luckily we got our shopping done yesterday, so we just have a couple things to pick up for the kids. I have my…

Well, our realtor said we should be getting an offer and now it looks like it’s not gonna happen. Oh well…

This morning I found out that one of my student’s mother was murdered last night. When he got up he went to wake his mom up and walked through what he thought was water (because ‘the pipes are always leaking’) and it ended up being his own mother’s blood. He found her dead, beaten, stabbed, and her throat was slit. When his homeroom teacher went to check on him today he was outside being interviewed by TV reporters. What the heck is wrong with those people? This 5th grade child just found his mother dead and they have TV cameras…

How are y’all? Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We’re still in Florida. I left my camera USB cable at home so I’m not able to upload and edit and post pics like I’d like to. ACK! I’ll have TONS to do when we get home Monday night, and Tuesday, and Wednesday….hahaha! Alex has been sick. He’s been off and on with his mood. We’ve had another dreadful task. I usually do medicine the lazy way and put it in his cups with no problems. But since we’ve been out of town, Rob decided Alex needed to be administered the…

That would be my Alex, my 2 year old. I have a list of things he’s done lately that have been completely destructive, but today tops it. I had gone in the other room to open the windows because it’s cool outside and warm inside. Then, Rob got home and I started talking to him. Alex brings me this black plastic thing and I’m like what is that? It turned out be one of the many keys off my keyboard that he ripped off. We were able to find all the keys and the little white plastic pieces that help…

I had my post-observation conference this morning about my

I’m a nervous wreck! I have a huge observation tomorrow with the Asst. Superintendent. I’ve dreaded this since I was hired. She’s a very nice lady, but she shows no emotion and you can’t read her. Very intimidating. Please pray for me. The good thing is is that I’ll have it over with! 🙂

I took the boys trick ‘r treating. They had fun. Drew got tired before Alex did. I was shocked. Drew was hot from his mask that kept shifting where he couldn’t see. Alex was having so much fun saying hi to everyone and looking in their house and seeing their dogs or whatever. They got a TON of candy this year along with some Dorito’s and chocolate covered apples.

Tonight Drew got Boo’ed. Ever heard of it? He got a bag of candy with 2 pieces of paper attached to it. One said this:

“Mom, your foot is squooshy.”

This weekend we’ll be heading to camp for the Fall Cub Scout Camp Out. It seems like we just went camping! Hopefully it will be dry this time!

Good news. We can be approved for the loan. Now it’s a matter of making sure we can really afford the payments and selling our house and getting the most out of it. I’ll keep you updated. **big grin and lots of tummy butterflies**
