BLOGGER TEMPLATES AND TWITTER BACKGROUNDS

hey! an update!

Here's a bulleted list of things I have to say, but have no time to expand upon!

  • We've lived in our house a year and a month now.  I still love it.
  • The house across the street has had three door colors in 13 months.  It was hunter green, then maroon and is now a beigy yellow.  I'm confused by someone having a hobby of painting the front door...
  • My Christmas tree is up, as of tonight.  I LOVE having a sparkly, glowing tree in my living room.  It makes me feel warm.  Pictures soon.
  • Which makes another point!  My husband got me an early Christmas gift the day after Thanksgiving of a new camera!  My old one had a cracked battery compartment and using it was very complicated.
  • My CASA case is going well...so well, in fact, that the judge believes it will be over by the end of January.  Meaning my first case will last less than 5 months from appointment to dismissal.  Crazy!  They told me the average case is 22 months!
  • I'm considering trying to transfer schools for next year.  But, I'm very attached to my paras and my students, which is making it a very difficult decision.
  • I made piggy banks for my brother's three kids for Christmas at Firehouse Pottery.  I love them, they are totally adorable!  Pictures soon.
  • Oh, there's another point.  My brother now has three kids.  Madilynn Rae was born the Saturday before Thanksgiving.  Paternity tests are pending, but she looks just like Sage, who has a different mother, so it's just a formality at this point.
  • Ugly Tree Party is tomorrow!  My ornament...ugly, but I have doubts as to it's potential to win.
  • Bryan's here.  I love it when Bryan's here.  I'm going to keep him captive and not let him go home.
  • MAP-A is a complete and total pain.  An arbitrary and ridiculous assessment that tests the teacher much more than the students.
  • My dog is still amazing.  I cannot imagine him not following me around all the time.  
  • I miss my friends who have moved.  All of you, please come back???
That's all for now.  Bye!
