The weekend is here!!

My 8 hour teaching math class was canceled for today, YAY!! I love this class and teacher, so it's not excitement of missing this class, but I am tired and need this weekend to regroup and start my research paper. This week went great!! I did realize that working with my two students does take a lot of my energy (physical as well as emotional). This has inspired me to take my vitamins and eat right and exercise, building up stamina is the key right now. :)

I have done some reading on helping these two and wow, I knew this was going to be my cup of tea (or least for right now), but realizing I can be a voice for children in this way is amazing. I am learning so much and feel that 3 years of going to school is paying off. ;) To know I have retained what I have learned and able to apply it is so awesome. I want to make sure to keep up my spirit and not let some of the red tape get me down. Having been there only 3 days, I see how the red tape can wear you down, but what did that the little old ant say, “he’s got high hopes, high apple pie in the sky”, that’s me today.

I know that I am running on adrenaline right now and my brain is going to, at some point, rebel. So let me say this now… sorry for any grammar mistakes, spelling errors, lack of making sense and all that goes with a brain short fusing. :) Well, we are off to the “big” city to do a little shopping and take Grandpa to the Art store…. hope you all have a great weekend!!!

First day Gitters!

Yikes!! I would never have thought this... I have butterflies flittering around in the already anxiety rid gut. lol I went for a job interview today and I got it. I will be a full-time teacher’s aide and part time substitute teacher. I am really excited, but it just hit me as I was trying to get some school work done and ahead. WOW!! Full-time Mom, Full-wife, Full-time student and now a full-time employee!

Ok, enough of the nerves... I am so excited and knew of the possibility this weekend, so my house work is all caught up. Piece of cake, she says now. :) I am so excited and thrilled to be gaining this experience… I will keep you all posted on how I feel after tomorrow. :)

Exciting! Exciting!!

Everyday there is something to help me see the light at the end of the tunnel. Today was one of those days. I made calls to a few Universities that I have in mind (to be announced later). Well, I received only good responses and extremely helpful staff. The excitement of it all is almost too much to handle. :) I can hardly wait to talk with Todd.

My fire is reignited and there is no stopping me now.... :)

(Not that you could have stopped me before!)

* Side note: I just re-read my first post and realized I missed a post. The school I found at first was great, but it has changed. As that school is still a contender,it may just not fit into the "big" plan. :)
