hello.

Our shower is ALMOST done.
yes, i know i think i said ONE week, its been like 3.
grout needs to be done on the whole thing & then the floor tile.
that'll be nice when its done. maybe they'll work on it tonight?

umm... i hope i have a job next year! things are looking quite grim in the education area. its ridiculous what they are doing in the schools. cutting back in areas that they shouldn't! i'm 100% sure that cutting back on aids in special education classrooms is NOT the answer. if they want to see the children PROGRESS- they need the help in those classrooms. its so sad. the teacher in our classroom is "riffed" for now. which is So ridiculous. I'm sure she'll have her job, but its dumb how much they put teachers & aids through. just like last year. Waiting til the end of June to find out if we have a job or not. i don't like waiting games.


i don't like waiting games of any sort.

anyways... while laying in bed on sunday night after a "fun, eventful evening" i got a text from jill. it was a picture message. and it was my NAME written by Sabrina Ward Harrison. Author of my favorite book Spilling Open!! it basically made my night. Jill got to spend the weekend with her at a workshop in Seattle. (JEALOUS!) But i had sent jill a package to deliver to Sabrina- a hair wrap. And so it was a nice surprise that jill asked her to do that for me! :)
