Hello Out There!

It has been very busy in the world of Jennifer. School is going great! Some days are harder than others, but I really do love it. The kids are great and they really are the reason why I get up and go to school. This next month is going to be even crazier though. I have one-two trainings every week, which is has been happening but more two days than one. haha.

My mom has been doing a lot better. I really think it helps that she has something to look forward to on the weekends. She goes to Amanda's soccer games every weekend, along with my Dad. So that has been helping things a lot, to know that she is happier.

I have some very exciting weekends coming up! This weekend I will be venturing down to College Station to see my handsome man. I am really excited about it and it will be nice because his room mates will gone so we will be having a lot of alone time, which will be very nice. Don't get me wrong I really like his room mates, they are all awesome guys, it will just be nice to just be with Nick.

The next weekend my girls in town!! We have some AWESOME things planned! We are going to take a long walk in the morning to help Rachel train for her 3day Breast Cancer walk! I'm really excited about that! It will be great for all of us to walk and talk. :-) Then we are going to an Urban Street Bazaar. It's in the Arts District. There's going to be a lot of artist from painters, jewelery makers, iron sculpture things haha. It will be a lot of fun to look through everything and maybe buy a few things.

The next weekend is Allie's wedding and Amanda's birthday! I will be in Georgetown for Amanda's birthday and then watching her play soccer and eating at their picnic on Sunday.

The NEXT weekend I'm going to League City to see my sped girls!!! I haven't seen them in FOREVER! We are possibly going to the beach and just plain hanging out!

The NEXT weekend I am going to College Station again to see Nick for Halloween and hopefully Lauren and Brent will be in town as well so we can all hang out! :-) We are going to watch some old horror movies and what not, I'm pretty excited, I haven't seen those old ones with Vincent Price and what not.

Well that was a lay out of my October haha. I just have a feeling I won't be able to write much so I thought I would just let you know now. :-)

THIS WEEKEND I went to the Taylor Swift concert on Friday! I was VERY impressed by her. If I had a little girl I would love to have her look up to Taylor. She actually went into the crowd to sing a song. She always had positive things to say and it was a wholesome show, for the most part haha. The only problem was that some idiot girl who can't hold her alcohol threw up before Taylor even came on. They cleaned it up for us but it still smelled bad.

I got a massage yesterday and it helped A LOT. I had a headache since Thursday (work problems) and once he (yes he, talk about that in a second) finished my headache was gone! I might have to get one every few months, help the tension build up in my back. So when I booked the appt. I forgot to make sure I had a female so I get there and I have a guy. I was very awkward, as I am sure you could guess haha. He asked me to lay on my back and I declined nicely haha I just said I wanted him to work on my back. haha. Oh my, I will remember next time I book the appointment! :-)

Well, folks, that's all. :-) I hope you are doing very well and I miss all of you very much! Hopefully you were on my list that I will be seeing soon! If not, get on my list for November!! :-)

Holy Moly I Haven't Wrote in a While

Hellllloooo!! Well it has been a CRAZY long time since I wrote and I thought I would fill yall in on my fabulous life. ;-)

I LOVE my job! The kids are great and it is definitely a challenge. It's really hard and stressful but what job isn't? This semester is going to be insane because I have all of my ARD (the meeting special ed has to have every year for each sped student and it's A LOT of paper) meetings this semester. I guess that means the spring will be lighter? Although then TAKS is then... haha oh well. I am getting the hang of teaching two grades at once and trying to motivate the students to work. :-)

The family is going well. :-) Mom's cancer level went down a point last week or so, so that's good news. :-) She still gets sick and what not from the chemo, but I think she is doing better now that Amanda's soccer season has started because her and my dad go to almost all of the games.

Nick and I are doing great! I was FINALLY able to see him this past weekend. We had a great time and it felt wonderful to be able to just hang around with him. We found out today that he won't be able to do our spring break trip because his senior project has some stuff over spring break so we will just have to postpone until June. Which is fine with me, I have the time off, and it might be nice to just have those days off and be able to hang around a bit. AND I will be able to go to CS for a few days to see his project and hopefully (if they are still there) see Lauren and Brent for a few days!

Speaking of Lauren and Brent! :-) I got to hang out with them this weekend as well!!! I was and still am very happy I got to see them! I miss just hanging around the house and chatting with those two. They are so much fun and I love to hear about all the stuff they have going on. Always something fun. :-) I am really excited to see Lauren in a few weeks for girls weekend!

I get to see Amanda this weekend! She has a game and I am going to drive down on Sat. so that we can hang out for a bit and I can see her play. We are in serious need of some sister time. :-)

On a note that probably doesn't seem like a big deal to you but is huge to me! I get to only take my allergy shot every 3 weeks now! Going from twice a week and then one for almost two years... going to every 3 weeks is awesome! Helps with time too.

I really think that's all. :-) Not much of a post for how long it's been but I feel like all I have been doing is school stuff. It's the first year.. always crazy and always memorable. :-)
